    The document discusses the differences between constant head permeability and falling head permeability tests. The constant head permeability test is used primarily for coarse-grained soils, while the falling head permeability test can be used for both coarse-grained and fine-grained soils. The falling head permeability test has high dispersion and is not sensitive to changes in porosity, while the constant head permeability test is a viable and economical alternative to measure permeability.
