Question: 4 - 1 8 In a falling head permeability test on fine sand, the sample is 7 0 m m diameter and 1 7 4

4-18 In a falling head permeability test on fine sand, the sample is 70mm diameter and 174mm length and the standpipe 17mm diameter. A stop watch is started when the head was 1m and stopped when head was 0.35m and reads 3.8min. The test is repeated for a drop from 0.3m to 0.1m and the time is 7.75min. The coefficient of permeability of the soil (6dp) is (ms) :
