Question

define percolation rate of soil

Answer 1

a percolation test (colloquially called perc test) is a test to determine the water absorption rate of soil ( that is , its capacity for percolation ) in preparation for the building of a septic drain field ( leach field) or infiltration basin

Answer 2

Answer:

PERCOLATION RATE OF THE SOIL

 Percolation is the property of absorption of water by soil.  

 The percolation rate is the amount of water absorbed by any soil at any given time.

 Formula for calculating percolation rate is,  

Percolation rate (ml/min) = amount of water (ml) / percolation time (min).

 For example, If 200 ml of water is percolated through the soil sample in 40 min. Calculate the rate of percolation.  

Solution – Rate of percolation is = amount of water (ml)/   percolation time (min)  

                                                 = 200 ml/ 40 min  

                                                 = 5 ml/ min  

Ans-  The rate of percolation is 5 ml/ min. VII
