In this video, we explore the crucial role of groundwater in geotechnical analysis and design. We answer important questions like why hydrogeological characterisation is so important, how groundwater affects geotechnical projects, and what essential parameters we need to evaluate. This video explains how understanding the distribution, thickness, composition and continuity of the lithological units impacts groundwater flow. You'll learn about aquifers, aquitards, hydraulic conductivity, porosity, permeability, transmissivity, and storage coefficients. We'll also discuss how to measure groundwater levels and determine the direction and gradient of flow. We will show why this data is essential for preventing issues like slope failures, subsidence, and heave. Real-world examples will illustrate the potential problems of not properly assessing groundwater. This video provides a complete overview of groundwater and its importance in geotechnical investigations.
