Principles of Seepage

In hydrology, when water flows down in a pore or crack of unsaturated soil due to gravity, the deep layer of soil is called seepage. It is the slow movement of water in the soil layer. Seepage is mainly found near hydraulic structures and is responsible for the stability of earthen-type hydraulic structures.

According to Khosla's method, the exit gradient is Floor weir 5 m 10 m Downstream sheet pile 4 m
3. Consider the sheet pile wall shown below. Assume the water is 20m above the ground surface on the left side of the sheet pile and the wall penetrates 18m below the ground surface. Using the flow net shown below and assuming k=0.05 m/day. Calculate: 1) quantity of water flow in 5 days for each meter length into to page, and 2) the water pressure at point A. 5m B
(i) A weir across an alluvial river has a horizontal floor of length 80 m and retains 8 m of water under full pond condition. If the downstream sheet pile is driven to a depth 8 m below the average bed level, then calculate the exit gradient. Also assuming a porosity of 25% and the relative density of soil particles as 2.70, determine the critical exit gradient and the factor of safety of the system with respect to the exit gradient.
A flow net for seepage under a sheet pile wall has n₁= 4, n=8 and the permeabilities of the soil in the horizontal and vertical directions are: K₁ = 8 x 10-¹5 m/sec and K₁=2x10-5 m/sec. If the head loss through the soil is 2 m, the quantity of seepage per meter length of the wall will be
