Zusammenfassung:Tests were carried out on the decomposed granite soils to examine the influence of properties of soil grains on permeability. The results indicate that the degree of weathering and mineral composition have pronounced effects on permeability, and that the existence of the pores within the grains is essentially important for the permeation of water.
