摘要
The paper examines the hydraulic conductivity of a nonplastic till from northern Quebec. It is shown that the hydraulic conductivity is strongly influenced by the compaction degree of saturation, and the variation of hydraulic conductivity with void ratio is influenced by compaction conditions. Determination of pore-size distributions and microphotographs provide evidence that changes in hydraulic conductivity are related to the fabric of the compacted specimens and macroporosity developing when the soil is compacted at degrees of saturation less than that at the optimum.
