Several pipe materials are acceptable to WSDOT, depending on the pipe classification (see the Standard Specifications). WSDOT’s policy is to
As stated in previous chapters, the deformations of soils are determined by the effective stresses, which are a measure for
For the theoretical analysis of groundwater flow several computational methods are available, analytical or numerical. Studying groundwater flow is of
As an example the flow under a structure will be considered, see Figure10.2. In this case a sluice has been
In the previous chapter it has been seen that under certain conditions the effective stresses in the soil may be
For soils of low permeability, such as clay, the normal permeability test shown in Figure 7.1 is not suitable, because
In the previous chapter Darcy’s law for the flow of a fluid through a porous medium has been formulated, in
Hydrostatics As already mentioned in earlier chapters, the stress distribution in groundwater at rest follows the rules of hydrostatics. More
