Abstract

The study predict the variation of void ratio on hydraulic conductivity and porosity impact for silty and peat sand deposition. The rate conductivity and porosity were considered in the system to predominantly pressure the deposition of void ratio on silty and peat sand formation, such structural deposition experienced predominant heterogeneity in the study location, the deposition reflected unconsolidated deposition that should be evaluated in fundamental analysis of engineering properties of soil for design of foundation, these condition made the study imperative, several experts may always apply the conventional system to generate parameters for void ratio, but the compressive analysis in most time are not gotten, but the analytical techniques applied were able to develop model that can determine the comprehensive deposition of void within the intercedes of the formation, the study has developed another conceptual approach to thoroughly monitor void ratio within silty and peat soil formation.
