How To Calculate Effective Stress in Soil Mass During Upward Seepage of Water | Practical Example

This video explains the principles of upward seepage of water in soil mass and its effect on the effective stress of soil. As the upward seepage increases, the effective stress will keep going down until it can reach zero, initiating the quick conditions or liquefaction.
