Group efficiency of Pile
The group efficiency of a pile refers to the ratio of the load-carrying capacity of a pile group to the sum of the individual capacities of the piles in that group. It is used to assess how effectively the group of piles can support the structure compared to the combined...

What is Seepage Pressure in Geotechnical Engineering?
Seepage Pressure Seepage pressure is a critical concept in soil mechanics, particularly when analyzing the behavior of saturated soils under the influence of water flow. It refers to the pressure exerted by water as it moves through soil pores, which can significantly affect the effective stress within the soil mass....
Definition, Properties, Applications and Construction Methods of Flow Nets in Geotechnical Engineering/ Soil Mechanics
Introduction to Flow Nets A flow net is a crucial tool in geotechnical engineering, providing a graphical representation of the flow of water through soil masses. It consists of two main components: flow lines and equipotential lines. Flow lines illustrate the paths that water takes as it seeps through the...
Index Properties in Soil Mechanics/ Geotechnical Engineering
Index Properties in Soil Mechanics Soil mechanics is a branch of civil engineering that deals with the behavior of soil under various conditions. Understanding the index properties of soil is crucial for identifying and classifying soils for engineering purposes. These properties help engineers predict how soils will behave under different...

Properties of Fluids- Density or Mass density, Specific weight, Specific Volume, Specific Gravity, Surface Tension
1.. Density or Mass density(ρ) : The density of a fluid is defined as the ratio of the mass of the fluid to its volume of fluid. Density is a crucial property that defines how much mass is packed into a given volume of a substance. It is expressed as the...
Lacey’s Silt Theory of Canals
Lacey’s Silt Theory of Canals According to what I know, Lacey’s silt theory is a method for designing irrigation canals that considers the interaction between water flow and sediment transport. It was developed by G. Lacey in the early 20th century. Lacey’s silt theory is based on the idea that...
