Soil-Bentonite Cutoff Walls: Hydraulic Conductivity and Contaminant Transport

Soil-bentonite cutoff walls are commonly used to contain contaminants in the subsurface. A key property in determining the effectiveness of a cutoff wall is its hydraulic conductivity. There are important difficulties and uncertainties regarding the accuracy of commonly used methods of measuring t...
