Accurately measuring the in situ hydraulic conductivity (permeability) of a clay liner is a major factor in the construction of landfill containment systems. Laboratory and large-scale field test methods are often utilized on test pads constructed prior to placement of the production liner to determine the hydraulic conductivity of the clay. While these test methods provide reliable results, th...

Abstract Landslides may cause severe destruction that affects both the individuals and functions vital for society. Minor landslides in an area with quick clay trigger secondary slides, influencing a much greater compared to slides areas no clay. Today’s expanding societies demand new exploitation. To effectively meet this demand, there is increased need identify where occur. Direct or indirect...

Abstract Hydrometer method is the standard that normally used to determine fine particle size distributions for soil classification purposes. This study aims develop new enable quick determination of silt-clay distribution compared hydrometer requires procedure pretreatment and additional 24 hours required complete test. The various samples were collected from seven different locations includin...
