Data: Data collected during this test consist of the following: diameter of soil sample length of the soil sample initial head reading final head reading qmount of water collected time of collection Calculations: Coefficient of permeability can be calculated using the equation k = ( QL)/( Aht) where: k = coefficient of permeability, cm/s Q = quantity of water discharged during the test, cm3 L = length of the soil sample, cm A = cross-sectional area of the sample, cm2 h = head différënce during test, cm 1= time required.for quantity Q to be discharged during test, in seconds.- %3D The permeability computed using the above equation is the value for the particular water-temperature at which the test was conducted It · is necessary to correct this permeability to that for 20°C by multiplying the computed value by, the ratio of viscosity of water at the test temperature to viscosity of water af 20°C. Data & Results: Initial Reading : 105.7 cm Final Reading : 92 cm Head Difference : (Initial-Final) reading Length of Sample : 13 cm Diamet er of Soil Sample : 5.8cm Amount of Water Collected : 27.5g Time of Collection :75sec COEFFICIENT OF PERMEABILITY (actual) COEFFICIENT OF PERMEABILITY (standard) : (actual* 0.91)
