Abstract

Testing the permeability of compacted clay is not easy. The hydraulic conductivity, k(Sr), depends upon porosity nc and degree of saturation Src after compaction, and the values reached during the permeability test, ncf and Srf. The four values are needed to predict k(Sr) using a dual-porosity model with two parameters, a and b. However, many published test reports do not give these four values. The tested clay is often unsaturated, and the measured k(Sr
