Abstract
This research include, more than 400 erosion tests performed on coarse and fine grain suspension materials. The purpose of tests was to determine erosion characteristics of mixtures of different materials. Samples of the .same constituents in different groups were cured tit two different setting time of // and 16 !tours before they were subjected to the constant hydraulic heads of 20 and 40 cm for ct time period of 30 urinates. The amount of erosion was measured as the weight loss of the samples offer the test. /n general the lower setting tune and the higher hydraulic head for a large group of samples showed higher erosion. For uniform sand samples when the cement content was 60-70 % the percentage of erosion (PE) was below 2. For the mixture of sand-cement, with the clay content below, 20% the percentage of erosion was below 2 and it increased to 15.5 for the clan, content of 58dc. Die addition of bentonite in the soil-cement mixtures in general did not affect the erosion.

Abstract
The main purpose of this research is evaluation of effect of chemicals on permeability of
sand- bentonite mixtures. The coefficients of permeability of sand- bentonite mixtures in water,
solutions of sodium and calcium chlorides, sodium hydroxide, acetic acid, methanol and carbon
tetrachloride were calculated using parameters obtained in 1- D consolidation test and Terzaghi’s
theory. At each void ratio permeability of samples in water is the lowest and that for carbon
tetrachloride is the highest. For all fluids the permeability index Ck is decreased as the percentage
of sand is increased. The largest Ck belongs to the samples tested in water and the smallest Ck
belongs to the samples tested in carbon tetrachloride.
