The natural ground water table at a site is located at a depth of 2m below the ground water. Laboratory tests reveal that the voidratio of the soil is 0.85 while the grain size corresponding to 10%finer is 0.05 mm. Determine the depth of the zone of saturationbelow the ground level. Assume C=0.3x10^-4 m²
