Effective Cohesion in Seepage Analysis Formulas

Effective Cohesion is the consistency of soft to hard defined on the basis of the standard CSN 73 1001 for different states of consistency and degree of saturation. And is denoted by c'. Effective Cohesion is usually measured using the Pascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Effective Cohesion is always positive.

FAQ

What is the Effective Cohesion?

Effective Cohesion is the consistency of soft to hard defined on the basis of the standard CSN 73 1001 for different states of consistency and degree of saturation. Effective Cohesion is usually measured using the Pascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Effective Cohesion is always positive.

Can the Effective Cohesion be negative?

No, the Effective Cohesion, measured in Pressure cannot be negative.

What unit is used to measure Effective Cohesion?

Effective Cohesion is usually measured using the Pascal[Pa] for Pressure. Kilopascal[Pa], Bar[Pa], Pound Per Square Inch[Pa] are the few other units in which Effective Cohesion can be measured.
