Gauge Pressure in Subsurface Pressure Formulas

Gauge Pressure help assess pressure exerted by fluids beneath the ground surface. Engineers can determine the stability of excavations and prevent issues like seepage or soil liquefaction using it. And is denoted by P_g. Gauge Pressure is usually measured using the Pascal for Pressure. Note that the value of Gauge Pressure is always negative.
