Upload NowMeaning of Seepage: The movement of water through soil is referred to as seepage. The total head at any point of a saturated soil mass, through which water is flowing consists of- (i) Velocity head; (ii) The piezometric head; and (iii) The datum head. Since the velocity through soils is very small, the velocity head […]
