• Groundwater is a water that is found underground and is stored in the pore spaces (between grains) of porous geologic formation called an “aquifer”.
• The importance of groundwater is easily overlooked.
• Groundwater is a hidden asset, out-of-sight and out-of-mind.

Groundwater & Foundation
Expensive house
Crack developed under the house and surrounding area Problem: The foundation of the house failed,
Resulting cracks and unstable foundation.

Groundwater & Foundation
Reason for failure - Fill material = silt + gravel + boulder material - High K values - Channeling (old river) - Higher new water level/high water pressure
After development
Fill material

Groundwater Movement

31
A measure of how easily a fluid (e.g., water) can pass through a porous medium (e.g., soils)
Loose soil
- easy to flow
- high permeability
Dense soil
- difficult to flow
- low permeability

• A confined aquifer has a source of recharge.
• The discharge, Q = 37500 m3/day
• The piezometric head in two wells 1000 m apart is 55 m and 50
m respectively, from a common datum.
• The average thickness of the aquifer is 30 m, and the average
width is 5 km.

Solution
Cross-Sectional area (A) = 30(5)(1000) = 15 x 104
m2
Hydraulic gradient (i) = (55-50)/1000 = 5 x 10-3 (No unit / unit less)
Q = 37,500 m3/day Darcy’s Law, Q = k.i.A k = Q / i.A = (37500) / (5 x 10-3)(15 x 10
4 )
= 50 m/day (0.000578703704 m/sec) = 5.79 x 10-4 m/sec

Groundwater is precious as a clean water resource
Groundwater has implication on engineering structures and stabilities
Groundwater can pollute – need for better understanding about the groundwater safety
Movement of groundwater is govern by Darcy’s Law.
