The effect of damage may be as

Procedure6.1 ObjectiveGeosynthetic and soil placement techniquesshall model the methods anticipated during construction butmay also be designed to model hypothetical conditions such asvarious deg

18、rees of compaction, lift heights, drop heights,equipment operations, and/or types of fill material.6.2 Exhumed Sample:6.2.1 The amount of geosynthetic to install in and retrievefrom a test section is a function of the type and number oflaboratory tests to be conducted for assessment of damage. Anamo

19、unt of material sufficient to obtain 20 tests on representa-tive specimens. for each type of test should be installed foreach set of installation conditions.6.2.2 The test sample should be marked prior to installationand exhumation, or a template made, showing the exactlocation where specimens for t

20、esting are to be obtained. Theyshall also be labeled with sufficient information to assureidentification of the exposed sample and associated exposureconditions, such as: geosynthetic and fill type. Machine andtransverse machine direction of specimens shall be designated.Designation of specimen loca

21、tions is recommended to elimi-nate potential bias in specimen selection after the geosynthetichas been damaged. Alternate areas may also be designated inthe event the primary specimen area is damaged by exhuma-tion.6.3 Control Sample:6.3.1 Control or base line (un-installed) sample(s) of thegeosynth

22、etic being investigated shall be from the same roll ofmaterial that is to be installed in the test section. Sample(s)from each roll of geosynthetic shall be gathered in cases wheremultiple geosynthetic rolls are used in the test section. Docu-ment all control sample information pertinent to sample s

23、uchas: date of manufacture, manufacturer or supplier, geosyntheticgrade and type, machine and transverse machine directions,and roll and lot number, if available. These control samplesshall be handled and stored (see Guide D 4873) in such amanner to eliminate, or minimize, damage or degradation (for

24、example, exposure to ultraviolet light).6.3.2 The orientation of the exhumed sample(s) and controlsample(s) are to be documented. That is, the left and right handsides of each sample must correspond. It is also recommendedthat the control sample should be a direct continuation of theexhumed sample s

25、o as to minimize differences in control andexhumed specimen properties due to inherent product variabil-ity.6.3.3 The positions of the test specimens on the controlsample, relative to roll edge, should correspond with thepositions of the exhumed sample.6.4 Installation Procedure:6.4.1 The soil subgr

26、ade or initial lift on which the geosyn-thetic(s) will be placed shall be constructed to specifiedconditions of soil type, moisture content and compaction.Construction equipment used should be the same as to be usedto construct overlying lifts, unless otherwise requested. Thegeosynthetic should be i

27、nstalled in accordance with projectspecific procedures. When project specific procedures and/ormaterials are not known, representative equipment, materialsand procedures should be used and thoroughly documented.6.4.2 The material to be placed above the geosyntheticunder investigation will typically

28、be a soil or rock fill, oranother geosynthetic material(s) with soil then placed upon it.In the case of another geosynthetic, it also shall be placed inaccordance with project specific procedures. When projectspecific procedures and/or materials are not known, represen-tative equipment, materials an

29、d procedures should be used andthoroughly documented.NOTE 1In certain situations, such as multiple layer installations,movement of individual layers in test sections may occur. Care should betaken to ensure that stress and potential slippage conditions in the testsections simulate actual field condi

Construction equipment used in fillplacement should be the same as that to be used in subsequentconstruction of the earth structure. Equipment shall be operatedin accordance with project s

31、pecific procedures. When projectspecific equipment, procedures and/or materials are not known,representative equipment, materials and procedures should beused and thoroughly documented.6.4.4 Spread fill into lifts above the geosynthetic modelingexpected field conditions. Construction equipment used

32、in fillspreading should be in accordance with project specific proce-dures. When project specific equipment, procedures and/ormaterials are not known, representative equipment, materialsand procedures should be used and thoroughly documented.6.4.5 Fill lift compaction above the geosynthetic shallmod

When project specific equipment, proceduresand/or materials are not known, representative equipment,materials and procedures should be used and thoroughlydocumented.NOTE 2C

34、ommonly used procedures include the following: 200 mmsoil lifts compacted to 90 % Modified Proctor density using a minimum4500 kg (total) vibratory steel roll (single or tandem). Typical soils/aggregates include coarse gravel (GP, d50 20 mm) concrete sand (SWd50 1.0 mm) or silty sand (SM d50 0.4 mm)

35、.NOTE 3Following placement and compaction for the lift, procedurescould include the simulation of post construction traffic such as loadedtrucks moving transversely over the test section.6.5 Exhuming of Samples:6.5.1 Samples from the test section should be exhumedwithin 48 hours after installation.6

36、.5.2 Method(s) employed to exhume the samples shallprevent or minimize additional damage to the geosynthetic.Document the method (s) used to exhume samples.NOTE 4Extreme caution should be exercise if using mechanicalequipment to remove soil covering the geosynthetic. Careful “hand”removal methods ar
