Q.1 A laboratory set-up as shown in the diagrammatic sketch in Figure Q.1 was used for
determination of the coefficient of permeability of an undisturbed soil sample
obtained from the field. The test results are given in the diagram.
(i) Determine the hydraulic conductivity of the soil in mm/min.
(ii) Find the seepage velocity of water in a soil column if the soil porosity equals
to 0.35 and the hydraulic gradient across is unity.

Q.2 A pumping test was carried out in a confined aquifer of the construction site, the
depth of a pump well is 10m and the thickness of an impermeable stratum above
the confined aquifer is 7m. The top level of the impermeable stratum is the
existing ground surface. The following data and results are collected.
Volume of ground water collected from the pump well = 0.04 m3
Time for collection of ground water = 65 minutes
Thickness of aquifer = 3 m
Distance between pump well and observation well 1 = 4 m
Distance between pump well and observation well 2 = 8 m
Measured depth of ground water level in
observation well 1 from existing ground surface = 5 mMeasured depth of ground water level in
observation well 2 from existing ground surface = 2 m
Based on the above information, determine the coefficient of permeability of the soil.

Q.3 The site condition as in Figure Q3, a 10.0 m thick layer of sandy soil overlies an
impermeable rock. Ground water level is at a depth of 1.85 m below the top of the soil.
Water was pumped out of the soil from a central well at the rate of 6.5 m3/minute and
the drawdown of the water table was noted in two observation wells. These two wells
were on a radial line from the centre of the main well at distances of 4.40 m and 35.00
m. When a steady state was achieved, the drawdowns of water level in the well
nearest to the pump was 3.50 m and in the furthest well was 1.00 m below initial
water table. You are asked to determine with detail calculations on the following:
(i) the coefficient of permeability (in m/s) for the sandy soil deposit.
(ii)
the drawdown in a new observation well if it was located 20 m from the
pumping well.
(iii) the radius of influence due to the field pumping test.
