Typical student experiments include:
Ø Seepage underneath a sheet pile wall
Ø Seepage through an earth dam
Ø Control of seepage through permeablesoils by sub-soil drainage
Ø Distribution of uplift pressure on hydraulicstructures
Ø Reducing uplift pressure and lateral thrustby drainage
Ø Formation and behaviour of ‘Quicksand’
Ø Stability of an earth dam
Ø Draining an excavation site using wells
BASIC ACCESSORIES
