	:“Applications for piezometers fall into two general categories – to monitor the pattern of water flow and to provide an index of soil strength. ~~(a)~~ Examples in the first category include determining [[groundwater]] conditions before [[construction]], monitoring seepage pressure distribution, and determining the effectiveness of drains, [[Relief Wells\|relief wells]], and seepage barriers. ~~(b)~~ In the second category, measuring porewater pressure permits an estimation of effective stress and soil strength. Examples include monitoring the dissipation of porewater pressure during consolidation of a foundation and embankment fill or following the rapid drawdown of a reservoir pool”.<ref name="EM 1110-2-1908">[[Instrumentation of Embankment Dams and Levees (EM 1110-2-1908) \| EM 1110-2-1908 Instrumentation of Embankment Dams and Levees, USACE, 2020]]</ref>		:“Applications for piezometers fall into two general categories – to monitor the pattern of water flow and to provide an index of soil strength.
