Abstract

As is known, the permeability coefficient of saturated and unsaturated rock masses can be found using the Bureau of Reclamation Method, which uses single and double packer water-pressure test results obtained from drillholes. The Bureau of Reclamation Method is, however, a time-consuming processes.
