What would be a good example of an impermeable layer of rock? a. sandstone b. conglomerate c. gravel d. schist e. the Denver Broncos offensive line
Homework Answers
Ans. A good example of an impermeable rock is (d) schist. It has extremely low permeability. Permeability is the conduit property of a hydro-geological formation. The other options namely sandstone, conglomerates, gravels are highly permeable and hence allow water to pass through them.

Example 2:3 The soil profile at a site consists of a 3 m thick sand layer (Ybulk -16.5 kN/m3 sat18.5 kN/m3) underlain by a 6 m thick clay layer (w-27%, Gs-270, m,-0.31 MPa", cv-2.6 m2/year), which is underlain by a gravel layer. A 3 m compacted fill with a unit weight of 20 kN/m3 is to be placed at ground level. a. What would be the final consolidation settlement? b. How long will it take for 50 mm of consolidation...
