Abstract: Skempton used the B-parameter (see Equation 1) to represent the degree of saturation of a material, such that, B → 0, when the degree of saturation = 0 and, B → 1, when the degree of saturation = 1 Δ Δ Δu B[ (Δ A+ )]σ3 1σ 3 (1) where, Δu is change in pore water pressure, A and B are pore-pressure coefficients, and σ3 and σ1 are minor and major principal stresses.
