Abstract

Permeability coefficient of cohesive soils is very important for estimating flow of water in the ground with multi-boundary conditions, specialize in estimating value of saturated soft soils consolidation.  In this paper, Author summarize data base of permeability coefficient of cohesive soil in Mekong delta and make a comparison with semi-experience equations by some of other Authors. Results in this paper can be used for estimating value of saturated soft soils consolidation in relation with void ratio changing.
