Table 5
The comparison of the measured and predicted values of hc of the capillary water rise in the fine-grained soils.
| | Sample number | Soil type | Plasticity index Ip | Measured value (cm) | Predicted value (cm) | Relative error |
| | 7# | High liquid limit clay | 26.4 | 195.0 | 194.3 | -0.4% | | 8# | Low liquid limit clay | 18.1 | 308.5 | 320.5 | 3.9% | | 9# | Low liquid limit clay | 12.8 | 368.5 | 351.4 | -4.7% | | 10# | Low liquid limit silt | 9.3 | 342.2 | 350.5 | 2.4% |
