Summary of Test Method4.1 The nominal thicknesses of geosynthetics is determinedby observing the perpendicular distance that a movable plane isdisplaced from a

11、parallel surface by the geotextile or geomem-brane material while under a specified pressure (2 kPa forgeotextiles and 20 kPa for geomembranes for 5 s).5. Significance and Use5.1 Thickness is one of the basic physical properties used tocontrol the quality of many geosynthetics. Thickness values arer

12、equired in calculation of some geotextile and geomembraneparameters such as permeability coefficients, tensile stress(index), and the like thickness is not indicative of fieldperformance and therefore is not recommended for specifica-tions.1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committe

15、tes.5.2 The thickness of geotextiles and geomembranes mayvary considerably depending on the pressure applied to thespecimen during measurement. Where observed changes occur,thickness decreases when applied pressure is increased. Tominimize variation, specific sample size and applied pressureare indi

16、cated in this method to ensure all results are compa-rable.5.3 To determine the effect of difference pressure loadingson the measure thickness of geotextiles and geomembranes,use this test method.5.4 This test method may be used for acceptance testing ofcommercial shipments of geotextiles and geomem

17、branes, butcaution is advised since information on between-laboratoryprecision is incomplete. Comparative tests, as directed in 5.4.1may be advisable.5.4.1 In case of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using this test method for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments,

18、 the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isa statistical bias between their laboratories. Competent statis-tical assistance is recommended for the investigation of bias.As a minimum, the two parties should take a group of testspecimens that are as homog

19、eneous as possible and that areformed from a lot of material of the type in question. The testspecimens should be randomly assigned in equal numbers toeach laboratory for testing. The average results from the twolaboratories should be compared using Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable

20、 probability level chosen by thetwo parties before the testing is begun. If bias is found, eitherits cause must be found and corrected or the purchaser andsupplier must agree to interpret future tests in the light of theknown bias.NOTE 1The user should be aware that the compressibility of themateria

21、ls, their rebound characteristics, and the like will also affect thethickness of the geotextiles and geomembranes following the time whenthey are rolled up on rolls shipped and stored.6. Apparatus6.1 Thickness Testing Instrument The thickness gaugeshall have a base (or anvil) and a free moving press

22、er foot platewhose planar faces are parallel to each other to 0.01 mm. Agauge with a 56.4 mm (2.22 in.) diameter presser foot, the baseshall extend at least 10 mm in all directions further than theedge of the 2500 mm2circular pressor foot, shall be used formeasurements of geotextiles, geocomposite d

23、rainage materials,and geonets. A gauge with a 6.35 mm (0.250 in.) diameterpressor foot shall be used for laboratory measurements ofgeomembranes. A gauge with 6.35 mm (0.250 in.) diameterpressor foot and base may be used for field measurements ofgeomembrane thickness. The instruments must be capable

24、ofmeasuring a maximum thickness of at least 10 mm to anaccuracy of at least 60.02 mm. The gauges shall be con-structed to permit gradual application of pressure to a specificforce of 2 6 0.02 kPa (0.29 6 0.003 psi) for geotextiles and20 6 0.2 kPa (2.9 6 0.03 psi) for geomembranes. Dead-weightloading

25、 may be used.6.1.1 The specified force of 20 kPa may be inadequate forsome HDPE geomembranes. A pressure in the range of 50 to200 kPa is recommended for HDPE geomembranes if ficti-tiously high readings are suspected using the 20 kPa pressure.NOTE 2(Appendix X1) lists some of the suppliers of apparat

26、us forthickness measurement.6.2 Cutting DiesDies to cut specimens should have di-mensions at least as large as a circle of 75 mm (3 in.) diameter.NOTE 3Due to compressibility of many geotextiles and geomem-branes the cutting and handling preparation may change the thickness.Care should be exercised

27、to minimize these effects.7. Sampling7.1 Lot SampleIn the absence of other guidelines dividethe product into lots and take lot samples as specified inPractice D 4354.7.2 Laboratory SampleConsider the units in the lotsample as the units in the laboratory sample. For the laboratorysample, take a full

28、width sample of sufficient length along theselvage or edge of the roll so that the requirements of 7.3-7.5.2can be met. Exclude the inner and outer wraps of the roll or anymaterial containing folds, crushed areas or other distortions notrepresentative of the sampled lot.7.3 Remove test specimens fro

29、m the laboratory sample in arandomly distributed pattern across the width with no specimentaken nearer than 100 mm (4 in.) from the selvage or roll edge,unless otherwise specified. For geomembranes include at leastone specimen taken no more than 152 mm (6 in.) from theedge. Since seams are an import

30、ant part of geomembraneapplications, thickness readings within 152 mm (6 in.) of eachedge is appropriate.7.4 Test SpecimensFrom each unit in the laboratorysample, remove the specimens so that the edge of the specimenwill extend beyond the edge of the pressor foot by 10 mm (0.39in.) in all directions

31、 (that is, at least a circle of 75 mm (3 in.)in diameter).7.5 Number of SpecimensUnless otherwise agreed upon,as when provided in an applicable material specifications, takea number of test specimens per laboratory sample such that theuser may expect at the 95 % probability level that the test resul

32、tis not more than 6.0 % of the average above or below the trueaverage of the sample. Determine the number of specimens persample as follows:7.5.1 Reliable Estimate of vWhen there is a reliableestimate of v based upon extensive part records for similarmaterials tested in the users laboratory as direc

33、ted in themethod, calculate the required number of specimens for themachine and cross-machine directions as follows:n 5 tv / A!2where:n = number of test specimens (rounded upward to a wholenumber),v = reliable estimate of the coefficient of variation ofindividual observations on similar materials in

35、n.7.5.2 No Reliable Estimate of vWhen there is no reliableestimate of v for the users laboratory, Eq 1 should not be useddirectly. Instead, specify the fixed number (10) of specimens.The number of specimens is calculated using v = 9.5 % of theaverage. These values for v are somewhat larger than usua

36、llyfound in practice. When a reliable estimate of v for the userslaboratory becomes available, Eq 1 will usually require fewerthan the fixed number of specimens.8. Conditioning8.1 Bring the specimens to moisture equilibrium in theatmosphere for testing geotextiles and geomembranes, that is,temperatu

37、re of 21 6 2C (70 6 4F) and relative humidity of60 6 10 %.8.2 Moisture Equilibrium is considered to have beenreached when the increase in mass of the specimen, insuccessive weighings made at intervals of not less than 2 h,does not exceed 0.1 % of the mass of the specimen. In general,many geotextiles

38、 and geomembranes contain more moisturewhen received than they will after reaching moisture equilib-rium.NOTE 4It is recognized that in practice, geotextiles and geomem-branes are frequently not weighed to determine when moisture equilib-rium has been reached. While such a method cannot be accepted

39、in casesof dispute, it may be sufficient in routine testing for a reasonable period oftime before the specimens are tested.Atime of at least 24 h has been foundacceptable in most cases. However, fibers may contain more moistureupon receipt than after conditioning and lose moisture relatively slowlyd

40、uring conditioning. When this is known, a preconditioning cycle, asdescribed in Practice D 1776, may be agreed upon by the contractualparties for routine testing.9. Procedure9.1 Test the conditioned specimens in the standard atmo-sphere specified in 8.1.9.2 Handle the test specimens carefully to avo

41、id altering thenatural state of the material.9.3 Procedure A - Geotextiles, Geocomposite DrainageMaterials, and Geonets: With the force applied to the pressorfoot on the base (no test specimen present), zero the measuringscale or record the “base reading.” Lift the presser foot, centerthe test speci

42、men on the base under the presser foot, and bringthe presser foot into contact with the material. Graduallyincrease the pressure to 2 kPa (0.29 psi).After the full force hasbeen applied to presser foot for 5 s against the specimen, recordthe thickness value to the nearest 0.02 mm and remove thespeci

43、men from the test device.9.4 Procedure B - Smooth Surfaced Geomembranes: Withthe force applied to the pressor foot on the base (no testspecimen present), zero the measuring scale or record the “basereading.” Lift the presser foot, center the specimen on the baseunder the presser foot, and bring the

44、presser foot into contactwith the material. Gradually increase the pressure to 20 kPa(2.9 psi). After the full force has been applied to presser footfor 5 s against the specimen, record the thickness value to thenearest 0.02 mm and remove the specimen from the test device.10.
