Consider the figure of a dam shown below. The soil underneath the dam foundation has a coefficient of permeability, k = 3.5 x 10-3 cm/s. The water head on the upstream side is 15 m, and on the downstream side is 1 m. Compute the daily seepage underneath the dam if the length of the dam is 400 m. (Hint: draw the flow net) 1 1 DAM 15 m 1 m is Bed Rock
A permeable soil layer is underlain by an impervious layer, as shown in the figure. With k = 5.2 x 10-4 cm/s for the permeable layer, calculate the rate of seepage through it in m/hr/m length. Given: H 3.8 m and a - 58 Ground surface Groundwater table (free surface
