Influence of compaction on strength parameters and permeability
Influence of compaction on strength parameters and permeability
(OP)
Dear all,
I read almost everywhere that soil with a higher compaction has more resistance, less deformation and is less permeable. While I do understand why this statement could be true, I can't find anywhere to what degree this is. More specific, I am looking for theoretical/experimental relationships between the degree of compaction and soil strength parameters, such as the cohesion, angle of friction, undrained shear strength etc and the coefficient of permeability.
Is there any literature or common knowledge available on this topic?
Thanks!

Mitchell, Hooper and Campenola (sp) published on permeability (ASCE) in the '60s.
