This test method isstrictly an index test method to be used to verify the compres-sive strengt

4、h consistency of a given manufactured geosyn-thetic. Results from this test method should not be consideredas an indication of actual or long-term performance of theTRM in field applications.1.2 Since these TRMs experience multidirectional compres-sive loadings in the field, this test method will no

5、t show actualfield performance and should not be used for this specificobjective. The evaluation of the results also should recognizethat the determination of the short term single plane compres-sive behavior of geosynthetics does not reflect the installedperformance of TRMs and, therefore, should n

15、he tested TRM may exhibit a less steepslope at yield. In addition, it should be stated that the yieldpoint also may be the ultimate strength of the TRM.3.1.7 For definitions of terms relating to geotextiles, refer toTerminology D4439.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 Specimens are mounted between paralle

16、l plates in a loadframe. Compressive loads are applied at a constant rate ofcrosshead movement. The deformations are recorded as afunction of load. The compressive stress and strain are evalu-ated and plotted. The compressive yield point is evaluated fromthe stress/strain relationship for those mate

17、rials that exhibit adetectable compressive yield point.5. Significance and Use5.1 The compression behavior test for TRMs is intended tobe an index test. It is anticipated that the results of thecompression behavior test will be used to evaluate product.The results of the analyses also may be used to

18、 compare therelative compressive yield points of materials that exhibit adetectable compressive yield point. It is anticipated that thistest will be used for quality control testing to evaluateuniformity and consistency within a lot or between lots wheresample geometry factors, for example, thicknes

19、s, or materialsmay have changed.NOTE 1This is a one-dimensional test for compressive loading of aTRM in one plane.5.1.1 The compressive yield point of TRMs may be evalu-ated from the stress/strain relationship. Many materials exhibitcompressive deformation but may not show a distinct com-pressive yi

20、eld point.5.2 This test method can be used to evaluate the short-termstress/strain behavior of TRMs under compressive stress whileloaded at a constant rate of deformation.5.3 This test method may be used for acceptance testing ofcommercial shipments of TRMs but caution is advised becauseinterlaborat

21、ory testing is incomplete.5.3.1 In the case of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using this test method for acceptancetesting of commercial shipments, the purchaser and the sup-plier should conduct comparative tests to determine if there isstatistically bias between the

22、ir laboratories. Competent statis-tical assistance is recommended for the investigations of bias.As a minimum, two parties should take a group of testspecimens from material shipped to project. The test specimensthen should be assigned randomly in equal numbers to eachlaboratory for testing. The ave

23、rage results from the twolaboratories should be compared using the Students t-test forunpaired data and an acceptable 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 inte

24、rpret future test results in the light ofthe known bias.6. Apparatus6.1 Loading MechanismThe loading mechanism shall becapable of applying compressive loads at a constant rate ofdeformation of 10 % on the nominal thickness of the testspecimen/min or 1 mm/min, whichever is greater.NOTE 2Some loading

25、mechanisms, especially the older models, donot have the capability of adjusting the rate of deformation to the specificrate required. For these instruments, the user and producer shouldestablish mutually agreed upon testing rates; however, the rate ofdeformation selected should not be greater than 1

26、0 % on the nominalthickness of the test specimen/min or 1 mm/min, whichever is greater.6.2 Fixed PlateThe bottom fixed plate shall be larger thanthe specimen to be tested. It shall be flat, smooth, andsupported completely and uniformly.NOTE 3It is recommended that the minimum fixed plate width beequ

27、al to the sample width plus twice the thickness of the test sample. Thisshould support the sample through the range of deformation and preventdraping or flexing displacement.6.3 Movable PlateThe movable plate shall be of sufficientthickness and strength to preclude any bending during loading.It shal

28、l be parallel to the bottom fixed plate and attached to thecompression mechanism. A spherical loading block of thesuspended, self-aligning type is recommended. The dimensionsand shape of the top movable, plate shall depend on thespecimen dimensions and geometry. In general, both lengthand width of t

29、he top movable plate should each be at least 20 %greater than the length and width of the specimens.6.4 Load IndicatorUse a load-indicating mechanism thathas an accuracy of 61 % of the maximum indicated value ofthe test (force).6.5 Deformation IndicatorUse a deformation-indicatingmechanism that has

30、an accuracy of 61.0 % of the maximumindicated value of the test (deformation).6.6 Micrometer Dial Gage, caliper or steel rule, suitable formeasuring dimensions of the specimens to +1 %.7. Sampling7.1 Lot SampleDivide the product into lots and take thelot sample as directed in Practice D4354.7.2 Labo

31、ratory SampleUnits in the laboratory sampleshould be the same as the units in the lot sample for the lot tobe tested. Take a sample extending across the full width, that is,cross-machine direction, of the TRM production unit of suffi-cient length, that is, machine direction, so that the requirements

32、of 7.3 can be met. Take a sample that will exclude materialfrom the outer wrap of a roll, if applicable, unless the sampleis taken at the production site, then the inner and outer wrapmaterial may be used.7.3 Test SpecimensCut five specimens from each unit inthe laboratory sample with each specimen

33、being at least 120 by120 mm/mm24.7 by 4.7 in.2.8. Conditioning8.1 Bring the specimens to the moisture and temperatureequilibrium in the atmosphere for testing permanent rollederosion control products, that is, a temperature of 21 + 2C70 + 4F and a relative humidity of 60 + 10 %.D6454/D6454M 99 (2016

Procedure9.1 Measure the length, width and thickness of the specimento an accuracy of 61%.9.1.1 The nominal thickness shall be determined using TestMethod D5199.9.2 The test specimen shall be placed on the bottom plateand centered with respect to the axis of the loading mechanism.The loading m

35、echanism shall be moving at the requiredconstant speed at or before the point of contact with thesample.9.3 The rate of crosshead movement shall be 10 % on thenominal thickness of the test specimen/min or 1 6 0.1 mm0.04 6 0.004 in./min, whichever is greater or as agreed uponbetween the user and manu

36、facturer.9.4 Use crosshead movement as a measure of deformation.If an automatic recorder is not used, measure the deformationin increments no greater than 0.5 % of the original thickness ofthe specimen. At each measurement, record the deformationand the corresponding load.9.5 Continue until a yield

37、point is reached, or until themaximum acceptable deformation limit has been reached,whichever occurs first.9.6 The test specimen then should be unloaded and removedfrom the loading mechanism.FIG. 1 Typical Load Deformation CurveFIG. 2 Stress Strain CurveD6454/D6454M 99 (2016)139.7 Repeat the precedi

38、ng procedures until five specimensare tested.10. Calculation10.1 If an automatic recorder is not used, construct aload-deformation curve from the incremental values obtainedin accordance with 9.4.10.2 In a typical load-deformation curve (see Fig. 1) there isa toe region, AC, that may not represent a

39、 property of thematerial. It is an artifact caused by the alignment or seating ofthe specimen. If such a circumstance arises, in order to obtaincorrect values of such parameters as strain, yield point, etc.,this artifact must be compensated for to give the corrected zeropoint on the deformation axis

40、. Using a straightedge, carefullyextend to the zero force line the steepest portion of theforce-deflection or force-strain curve. This establishes the“zero deformation” or “zero strain” points (Point B in Fig. 1).Measure all distances for deformation or strain calculationsfrom this point.10.2.1 If t

41、here is a compressive yield point (as Point Y inFig. 1), read the load and measure the specimen deformation(distance B-D). Calculate the residual thickness of the speci-mens at various fixed loads in addition to the yield point.Follow this with a report that indicates the values of both yieldand res

42、idual thickness at various loads. These results can bereported in a graph or table.10.2.2 Calculate the compressive stress by dividing the loadat the compressive yield point by the initial horizontal cross-sectional area of the specimen.10.3 The compressive stress with the corresponding com-pressive

43、 strain shall be plotted for each test.10.4 The compressive yield point shall be reported as thearithmetic mean and minimum of the five tests.NOTE 4Not all geosynthetics exhibit a well-defined compressive yieldpoint. In such cases, if a compressive stress value is needed forcomparative purposes, use

44、 a strain value agreed upon between thepurchaser and the buyer. Such a value might be the point where there is asignificant change in the slope of the stress-strain curve, as shown by thetwo curves in Fig. 2.11.
