dc.description.abstractThe present study evaluated the influence of the hydraulic gradient on soil conductivity changes using data from permeability tests performed in a column percolation test system, in order to represent geoenvironmental engineering applications. A mature residual soil from gneiss, pedologically classified as Red-Yellow Latosol, with 67% of clay, 10% of silt, 23% of sand, 82% of liquid limit and 46% of plastic limit was used in the study. Soil specimens were compacted at the optimum compaction parameters determined at the Standard Proctor effort, i.e., wopt =31.37% and γdmax =13.54 kN m-3. After compaction, it was determined the permeability of specimens under the hydraulic gradients of 15, 66, 85 and 140. The results obtained support that: (i) at the 5% level, there is statistical significant variation in the permeability coefficient according to the hydraulic gradient used in the tests; (ii) from a geotechnical perspective, there is a slight tendency of increasing the permeability coefficient when increasing the hydraulic gradient, but of no significance for geotechnical practical applications.en
dc.description.abstractO presente trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar a influência do gradiente hidráulico empregado em ensaios de percolação em coluna na permeabilidade de um solo argiloso compactado, sob o prisma de aplicações em geotecnia ambiental. O solo empregado no estudo foi um residual maduro, pedologicamente classificado como Latossolo Vermelho-Amarelo, com 67% de argila, 10% de silte, 23% de areia, limite de liquidez de 82% e limite de plasticidade de 46%. Corpos de prova desse solo foram compactados nos parâmetros ótimos determinados na energia do ensaio Proctor Normal, com wot de 31,37% e γdmax de 13,54 kN m-3. Após a compactação, esses corpos de prova foram utilizados em ensaios de permeabilidade, nos gradientes hidráulicos 15, 66, 85 e 140. Os resultados obtidos sustentam que (i) estatisticamente em nível de significância de 5%, observou-se variação significativa no coeficiente de permeabilidade em função do gradiente hidráulico utilizado nos ensaios; (ii) sob o prisma geotécnico, observou-se leve tendência de aumento no coeficiente de permeabilidade com o aumento do gradiente hidráulico, mas de pequena monta para fins práticos de engenharia.pt-BR
