A constant-head permeability test is performed, and the information below indicates the test conditions and results. From the given data, provide a sketch representing the test arrangement, and calculate the value for the coefficient of permeability. On the basis of the computed value for khyd, indicate the probable soil type.


• Water flows horizontally through the soil sample.


• The height of the reservoir supply source is 2 m above the elevation of the outlet reservoir.


• The soil sample length in the direction of water flow is 200 mm.


• The cross-sectional area of the soil sample is 1,950 mm2.


• The measured volume of flow for the steady state condition is 500 ml in a 10-minute time period (note).
