BLIGH'S CREEP THEORY

Specialty Definition: BLIGH'S CREEP THEORY

Building & Civil Engineering

The premise of this theory is that the resistance to percolation along the "line of creep", the line of contact of the dam and cutoff with the foundations may be less than directly through the foundation materials on account of the difficulty of securing an intimate contact and that the hydraulic gradient is constant throughout the creep length.
