Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What does a high coefficient of permeability indicate about a soil?
  • Step 1: Understand what 'coefficient of permeability' means. It measures how easily water can move through soil.
  • Step 2: Recognize that a 'high' coefficient of permeability means water flows quickly through the soil.
  • Step 3: Realize that this property is important for drainage, meaning excess water can leave the soil easily.
  • Step 4: Consider that good drainage helps maintain soil stability, preventing issues like erosion or landslides.
