THE INFLUENCE OF TREE INDUCE SUCTION ON SOIL SUCTION PROFILES

International Journal of Research in Engineering and Technology, 2013
This study provided an investigation of active root tree zone located at the toe of the slope. This section of slope generated suction due to tree water uptake during dry season. A field mon itoring set up program was carried out to collect m atric suction data at slope with absent of a tree and with a tree located at toe of the slope.
