What is piping as used in soil mechanics?
Piping in soil mechanics refers to the process where water flow through soil creates internal erosion, leading to the formation of channels or "pipes" within the soil mass. This phenomenon often occurs in saturated soils, particularly in levees, embankments, or dams, where hydraulic gradients can cause fine particles to be washed away. If left unchecked, piping can compromise the stability of structures and lead to failure. Effective management and design measures are essential to prevent piping and ensure soil stability.
