17、hnical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.14. Significance and Use4.1 Procedure AThis procedure is an index-type testwhich can be used as a guide for acceptance of commercialshipments of geosynthetics. The standard cone and pyramidtest fixtures can establish critical height (ch) consistency withsimil

18、ar material from previous lots or different suppliers, aswell as testing from other laboratories. However, due to thetime required to perform tests, it is generally not recommendedfor routine acceptance testing.4.2 Procedures B and CThese procedures are perfor-mance tests intended as a design aid us

19、ed to simulate the in-situbehavior of geosynthetics under hydrostatic compression.These test methods may assist a design engineer in comparingthe ability of several candidate geosynthetic materials toconform to a site-specific subgrade under specified use andconditions. In procedure B, the pressure

20、is increased until afailure is observed. In procedure C, a given set of conditions(pressure, temperature and test duration) are maintained con-stant and the performance of the system is observed at the endof the test.5. Apparatus5.1 For safe operation, the test vessel should have anappropriate ASME

21、pressure rating. The maximum pressurerating of the vessel is dependent on the material being testedand expected pressures to be encountered. Pressure can beachieved from a regulated air system or a hydraulic pump.5.2 Subgrade Pan, several removable pans for configuringvarious subgrades. Subgrade pan

22、s are to be built with a depthof 102 mm 4 in., and with drain holes in the bottom of the panto allow the pressurizing medium to flow through. The sub-grade pan shall be constructed of a suitable material to supporta load of 1800 kPa 250 psi.5.3 Leak Detection System, can be designed by usingdisplace

23、ment floats, moisture sensor, pressure sensors, a sightglass, or other means that will accurately detect failure.5.4 Layout Grid, for Procedure B, the layout grid is to assistin determining deformation of the tested geosynthetic. The gridis placed flat against the test specimen that has been placedr

24、eady for testing. Depth readings will be taken in a prearrangedpattern over the entire area of the test specimen. The prear-ranged area that the geosynthetic displacement depth ischecked must remain consistent throughout the completetesting. The depth is taken from the top of the grid to thesurface

25、of the test specimen. The layout grid is to be made of3-mm 0.12-in. aluminum rod with a grid layout of 50 by50 mm 2 by 2 in.5.5 Test ConesThe cones should be manufactured fromaluminum or a hard plastic, that is, epoxy or Lexan. Theyshould comply with the dimensions proposed in Fig. 1 andexhibit a sm

26、ooth surface with no indentation visible with thenaked eye.NOTE 1An electrical detection system may be used in the cone tofacilitate observation of the failure.5.6 Other protrusions such as pyramids may be used, giventhat they are completely described in the test report. Theyshould be manufactured f

27、rom aluminum or a hard plastic, thatis, epoxy or Lexan.5.7 Temperature Probe, used to measure the test chambertemperature as well as the liquid temperature (if applicable).The accuracy of the temperature probe shall be 61 C.5.8 Support Bridge, used to support the center of thesubgrade pan to keep th

28、e pan from deflecting under load.5.9 Pressure Measurement Gages, should be in a series suchthat each lower pressure can be closed off as its maximum safeoperation pressure is reached. The series of gages should be 0to 210 kPa 0 to 30 psi, 0 to 690 kPa 0 to 100 psi, and 0 to1400 kPa 0 to 200 psi. The

29、 accuracy shall be 67.0 kPa1 psi.6. Hazards6.1 WarningIn addition to other precautions, the testapparatus is under pressure and proper precaution should betaken. When drain valves are opened, safety glasses should beworn by the operator. Pressure relief valves are highly recom-mended to prevent unsa

33、ion.7.2 Measure the geosynthetic specimen thickness accuratelyby one of the industry-standard test methods referenced inSection 2.NOTE 4If testing a permeable geosynthetic without the support of ageomembrane, a non-permeable sheet on the liquid medium side may beused, provided adjustments are made f

34、or the strength of the non-permeable sheet (that is, 0.4-mm latex).7.3 The test specimen should be free of any scratches, folds,or other abnormalities, unless the abnormality is the item ofinterest.7.4 Examine a total of three replicate test specimens.8. Conditioning8.1 Expose the specimens to the s

35、tandard atmosphere fortesting geomembranes for a period long enough to allow thegeomembranes to reach equilibrium with the standard atmo-sphere. Consider the specimen to be at moisture equilibriumwhen the change in mass of the specimen in successiveweightings made at intervals of not less than 2 h d

36、oes notexceed 0.1 % of the mass of the specimen. Consider thespecimen to be at temperature equilibrium after1hofexposureto the standard atmosphere for testing.8.2 If the test is to simulate actual application, the testspecimen should be conditioned for at least 40 h in thatenvironment. If there is n

37、ot a specific environment, then theconditioning should be in accordance with ASTM standardconditioning for the material being tested. If no such standardexists, state the conditioning procedure used.9. Procedure A9.1 Placement of the SubgradeFirst place a geotextile orother fabric in the bottom of t

38、he subgrade pan. The geotextileis to be used to restrict movement of small particles of sand orrocks into the lower portion of the tester. Any geotextile orother fabric which has the capability of retaining the subgradepan fill material and does not restrict the flow of the liquidmedium is adequate.

39、NOTE 5The use of any geotextile should not allow movement of thepyramids or cones in relation to the established subgrade. This movementcould result in changes in the protrusion height during the test.9.2 Place the pyramids/cones in the subgrade pan on top ofthe geotextile. The pyramids/cones are ar

40、ranged so that a linedrawn through the geometric center of the pyramid/cone is ona circumference of a 200-mm 8-in. diameter circle for a500-mm 20-in. minimum diameter vessel.9.3 If pyramids are selected, four test pyramids shall be usedfor each test. The pyramids are positioned 90 apart.9.4 If cones

41、 are selected, three test cones shall be used foreach test. The cones are arranged 120 apart with their 45faces each facing the center of the pan.9.5 The subgrade shall be a clean, washed, Ottawa sandused to support the geomembrane materials at final placementFIG. 2 Experimental Test ApparatusD5514/

42、D5514M 183level. Fill the area between the test pyramids or test cones, andcreate a water drainage layer below the geomembrane.9.6 Place the specimen over the prearranged subgrade andsecure the top of the test apparatus to the bottom.9.7 Fill the vessel to obtain a water or liquid medium levelthat i

43、s 127 mm 5 in. over the test height of the pyramid/cones.9.8 Be sure all valves are tightly closed, including the airintake valve of the vessel which is between the test apparatusand regulator. This will ensure that the testing does not beginprematurely, and a zero point in pressure is monitored. Co

44、nnectair service to the air regulator.9.9 Open the regulator valve. The pressure should beincreased at 7.0 kPa 1 psi every 30 min until rupture or themaximum air pressure is achieved. This maximum pressureshould be noted and included on the final report. Otherincremental pressures can be used if des

45、ired and agreed uponby all parties involved in the test program evaluation.NOTE 6The 7-kPa 1-psi pressure increase should be accomplishedwithin the first one minute of the total incremental dwell time.9.10 Release pressure of the hydrostatic tester by closing theincoming airline valve. Open the drai

46、n valve on the hydrostatictester and let the water or liquid medium drain from the vessel.9.11 After water or liquid medium has been released,remove the top portion of the test apparatus.9.12 If the geosynthetic specimen does not fall, increase theheight of the pyramids/cones by removing and reshapi

47、ng theOttawa sand subgrade. Continue to increase the height of thepyramids in 13.0-mm 0.5-in. increments until failure of thegeosynthetic occurs.9.13 Immediately remove the test specimen from the testapparatus and, using Test Method D5199, measure the thick-ness of test specimen at the points adjace

48、nt to failure and at thepoint of the pyramid/cone. Measure again after 90 min.9.14 Repeat testing for the three specimens, obtaining anaverage time and pressure to the point of failure or non-failure.10. Procedure B10.1 The testing and data collection will be the same asProcedure A; however, site-sp

49、ecific material will be used andplaced according to the instruction from the requesting parties.10.2 The site-specific fill material will be classified by thetesting laboratory by the use of sieves (conforming to Speci-fication E11), and the aggregate measured by calipers.10.3 After the specimen is placed in position for testing,place the layout grid over the specimen. Mark on the specimenat least 20 prearranged areas across the grid. (Measure theseareas in depth as defined from the top of the grid to contactwit
