The saturated hydraulic conductivity, k, is a crucial variable to describe the hydromechanical behavior of soils. The value of k of lateritic soils that are typically found in tropical regions is highly affected by the soil's structure, void ratio, and fine particle aggregation. As a result, the determination of k in the field or in the laboratory is complex and involves greater variability, depending on the type of test and on the spatial location of sampling.
