engineering recuitment RPSC AEn Mock Test 2024 Soil Mechanics and Foundation Engineering Permeability
Statement (I): Rate of settlement of a consolidating layer depends upon its coefficient of consolidation, which is directly proportional to the permeability and number of drainage paths available.
Statement (II): The excess hydrostatic pore pressure is relieved fast in soil of higher permeability, in turn, depending on the number of drainage paths available in the consolidating layer.1
Both Statement (I) and Statement (II) are individually true and Statement (II) is the correct explanation of Statement (I)
