Field Soil
Hydraulic Conductivity, Flow Rate
The rate of flow of water into soil through the bottom of a sealed, cased borehole is measured in each of two stages, normally with a standpipe in the falling-head procedure. In stage 1, the bottom of the borehole is flush with the bottom of the casing. In stage 2, the borehole is extended below the bottom of the casing.
