The data of the steady rising height of capillary water were obtained, and the regression equation of coarse grained soil on steady height and physical indexes (effective grain dl0 and porosity n) was found. Compared with Hazen's and other expressions that could estimate the steady height of capillary water of coarse grained soil, the proposed method is satisfactory and the defects of the latter were pointed out.展开更多
