10、st Method4.1 This test method provides a procedure for measuring thewater flow, in the normal direction through a known crosssection of a single layer of a geotextile at predeterminedconstant hydraulic heads over a range of applied normalcompressive stresses.4.2 The permittivity of a geotextile, , c

11、an be determined bymeasuring the flow rate of water, in the normal direction,through a known cross section of a geotextile at predeterminedconstant water heads.4.3 Water flow through geotextiles can be laminar, transient,or turbulent, and therefore permittivity cannot be taken as aconstant.5. Signif

12、icance and Use5.1 The thickness of a geotextile decreases with increase inthe normal compressive stress. This decrease in thickness mayresult in the partial closing or the opening of the voids ofgeotextile depending on its initial structure and the boundaryconditions.5.2 This test method measures th

United States16. Apparatus6.1 The apparatus is a constant head permeameter. Generalguidance on the hydraulic desi

16、gn of a constant head permeame-ter can be found in Test Methods D4491/D4491M.6.2 The components installed around the test specimen aredesigned in such a way that a normal load can be applieduniformly on the entire flow surface without restraining sig-nificantly the flow rate. The permittivity of the

17、 apparatus,calculated using the calibration curve established in Section 10,shall be at least 10 times greater than the permittivity of the testspecimen under the hydraulic conditions prevailing during agiven test. However, the central deflection of the loadingmechanism on the plane of the geotextil

18、e shall not exceed0.025 mm while subjected to the maximum normal loadapplied during the test.6.3 The recommended apparatus configuration is shown inFig. 1:6.3.1 An optimum flow diameter has been found to be50 mm to minimize hydraulic side effects while ensuring anoptimum rigidity of the loading mech

19、anism.6.3.2 A wire meshes, 1.0 mm in opening, complying withSpecification E11 is installed as the contact surface on bothsides of the test specimen.6.3.3 Two rigid metallic plate with the geometry shown onFigure 2 act as a structural component on both sides of the wiremeshes. The lower one is suppor

20、ted by the apparatus, while theupper one can move freely but is adjusted to the diameter of theflow channel.6.3.4 The upper metallic plate is connected to a devicecapable of applying the requested normal load on the testspecimen (dead loads, air piston or any suitable device). Themechanical connecti

21、on between the upper metallic plate andthe loading mechanism consists of four rods, 3 mm in diameter,distributed on a circle approximately 30 mm in diameter.6.3.5 A dial indicator can be connected to the loadingmechanism to monitor the specimen thickness during the test.7. Sampling7.1 Lot SampleAs a

22、 lot sample for acceptance testing, takeat random the number of rolls of geotextile directed in anapplicable material specification and the supplier (for examplePractice D4354) or other agreement between the purchaser andthe supplier. Consider rolls of geotextile to be the primarysampling units. If

23、the specification requires sampling duringmanufacture, select the rolls for the lot sample at uniformlyspaced time intervals throughout the production period.NOTE 1An adequate specification or other agreement between thepurchaser and the supplier requires taking into account the variabilitybetween r

24、olls of geotextile and between specimens from a swatch from aroll of geotextile so as to provide a sampling plan with a meaningfulproducers risk, consumers risk, acceptable quality level, and limitingquality level.7.2 Laboratory SampleConsider the units in the lotsample as the units in the laborator

25、y sample. Take a sample thatwill exclude material from the outer wrap of the roll or theinner wrap around the core unless the sample is taken at theproduction site, at which point the inner and outer wrapmaterial may be used.8. Test Water Preparation8.1 De-air the test water to provide reproducible

26、test results.8.2 De-air the water used for saturation.8.3 De-air the water under a vacuum of 710 mm (28 in.) ofmercury (Hg) for the period of time to bring the dissolvedoxygen content down to a maximum of 6 ppm.FIG. 1 Specimen Holder and Loading MechanismD5493 06 (2016)28.4 Use dissolved oxygen mete

27、r or commercially availablechemical kits to determine the dissolved oxygen content.8.5 The deaired system may be a commercially availablesystem, or one consisting of a vacuum pump capable ofremoving a minimum of 150 L/min of air in connection with anon-collapsible storage tank with a large enough st

28、oragecapacity for the test series, or at least one specimen at a time.Allow the deaired water to stand in closed storage under aslight vacuum until room temperature is attained.8.6 If water temperature other than 20C is being used,make a temperature correction to the resulting value ofpermittivity.8

29、.7 Determine the temperature correction factor using thefollowing equation:Rt 5 ut/u20 (1)where:ut = water viscosity at test temperature, mP, as determinedfrom Table 1, andu20 = water viscosity at 20C, mP.9. Specimen Preparation9.1 Prepare four specimens of the geotextile to be testedavoiding sampli

30、ng along the edges of the geotextile roll toensure homogeneity of the specimens.9.2 The minimum specimen diameter is 50 mm.9.3 Referring to Fig. 2, select the specimens, A, B, C, and Das follows:9.3.1 Take Specimen A at the center of the sample, B at onecorner (center located 200 mm from the corner)

31、, C midwaybetweenAand B, and D the same distance fromAas C, locatedon a line with A, B, and C.9.3.2 Cut specimens shall fit the testing apparatus.10. Calibrations10.1 Hydraulic Calibration:10.1.1 Run at least 3 tests without any geotextile specimeninstalled in the apparatus, each of them being ran w

32、ith thesystem set to apply different normal loads spread over theequipment capability (that is, 2, 20, and 200 kPa). Thespecimen shall be replaced by a rigid material approximately25 to 30 mm in diameter that will not restrain the flow (such asa 1 to 2 mm long section of a thick 25 mm PVC plastic pi

33、pe).For each test, measure the water heads corresponding to at least10 different flow rates uniformly spread between 0 and theequipment capability.10.1.2 Draw the Water Head versus Flow Rate curve andcalculate the intrinsic permittivity of the apparatus for eachflow rate using Eq 2. Plot both curves

34、 on the same graph asshown on Fig. 2.10.2 Normal Load CalibrationUse a convenient system tocontrol the precision of the normal load applied on thegeotextile. The normal load effectively applied shall be within5 % of the targeted load.10.3 Thickness Measurement CalibrationAlthough thick-ness measurem

35、ent is not a mandatory requirement, if thethickness of the material is monitored, it shall be calibratedfirst. In that case, the central deflection requirement expressedin 6.2 shall be verified using the procedure presented below.10.3.1 Install a metallic ring 50 mm in diameter (or the innerdiameter

36、 of the flow channel), witha1mmwall and 10 mmthick in the sample holder in place of the geotextile.10.3.2 Apply the minimum load that can be achieved withthe equipment (that is, 2 kPa) and record the value provided bythe dial indicator as the zero for calibration purposes.10.3.3 Apply by increments

37、10 different normal loads uni-formly spread over the apparatus capability and record thecorresponding values given by the dial indicator.10.3.4 Plot the thickness versus load curve and verify thatthe deflection measured under 2, 20, and 200 kPa normal loadare less than 0.025 mm.TABLE 1 Viscosity of

Test Procedure11.1 Soak the specimen in a vessel containing deaired water,at room conditions, for a p

40、eriod of at least2htoensuresaturation and wetting.11.2 Maintain the test specimen, underwater at all timesprior to and during the test.11.3 Allow the deaired water to flow from the bottom of theapparatus to the predetermined overflow located on the top ofthe upper section of the water tank using the

41、 drain tube as thewater inlet.11.4 Place the geotextile specimen in the apparatus insequence as shown in Fig. 1.11.5 Lower the piston until it reaches the upper metallicplate.11.6 Apply a load equal to 2 kPa.NOTE 2Unless otherwise specified, the permittivity shall be measuredunder 2, 20, and 200 kPa

42、. If a different normal load is required, the firstapplied normal load shall be the lightest one.11.7 Continue to fill the tank from the outlet until the waterlevel reaches the outlet level. This step is needed to flush outany air bubbles located in the upper plate and the upper sectionof the cylind

43、er. Air bubbles in the system may lead toerroneous and non-reproducible test results.11.8 Connect the water line to the inlet reservoir to run thetest.11.9 The seating period shall be long enough to reach athickness variation of less than 0.0025 mm per minute.11.10 Measure the flow rate under total

44、(uncorrected) hy-draulic heads of approximately 15, 25, 50, and 75 mm, or morein order to apply an actual (corrected) hydraulic head in therange of 10 to at least 50 mm. Conduct three flow ratemeasurements for each water head and verify that the differ-ence between the lower and the higher value is

45、less than 5 %.11.11 Increase the normal load to reach the next requestednormal load and repeat the flow measurements as described in11.10.11.12 Repeat steps 11.9 to 11.11 for three additional testspecimens.NOTE 3If a reduction of permittivity is observed for a given product,it could be either caused

46、 by the products behavior (sensitivity to thenormal load) or by air clogging during the test. The following procedurecan be used to assess whether air clogging has influenced the result or not:(1) apply a single normal load on the specimen; (2) measure itspermittivity; (3) let the water flow through

47、 the specimen for a period oftime equivalent to the total duration of the test, varying the water head insuch a way that the hydraulic head history of the actual test will bereproduced; (4) repeat the permittivity measurement; and (5) compare thedeviation between the two permittivity measurements.12

48、. Calculation12.1 Use the calibration curve built in 10.1 to determine thewater head correction DHQ to be considered for each indi-vidual flow rate measurement.NOTE 4A power regression built with the values measured in 10.1usually provides a very good tool to automate the water head correction.12.2

49、Calculate the permittivity for each individual measure-ments using Eq 2. 5 Q 3 Rt/SH 2 HQ!# (2)where:Q = measured flow rate (Q = V / t, where V = volume andt = time),Rt= temperature correction factor,S = flow surface,H = measured water head, andHQ= water head correction.12.3 Plot the permittivity versus the corrected water headfor each individual test specimen and determine the permittiv-ity in the laminar region, which is constant up to a certain waterhead.12.4 Determine the permittivity under a 5
