3、overs the procedure for determiningthe in-plane transmissivity of geosynthetics under varyingnormal compressive stresses using a radial flow apparatus. Thetest is intended to be an index test used primarily forgeotextiles, although other products composed of geotextilesand geotextile-type materials

4、may be suitable for testing withthis test method.1.2 This test method is based on the assumption that thetransmissivity of the geosynthetic is independent of orientationof the flow and is therefore limited to geosynthetics that havesimilar transmissivity in all directions and should not be usedfor m

Summary of Test Method4.1 The transmissivity is determined using a device whichtransmits the flow of water radially outward from the center ofa torus-shaped test specimen. The test method is performedwith a constant head under a specific normal stress selected byth

21、e user and may be repeated using several gradients and underincreasing normal stresses.4.2 The material property “hydraulic transmissivity” is tech-nically applicable only to the regions of tests where the flowrate is constant with gradient, that is, the laminar region of thetests.4.3 In the constan

22、t head radial flow test, the flow regime ischaracterized as nonuniform steady flow since the cross-sectional flow area and the hydraulic gradient vary from pointto point along any radial flow line while remaining constantwith time.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method is an index test to estim

23、ate andcompare the in-plane hydraulic transmissivity of one or severalcandidate geosynthetics under specific gradient and stressconditions.5.2 This test method may be used for acceptance testing ofcommercial shipments of geosynthetics, but caution is advisedsince information about between-laboratory

24、 precision is in-complete. Comparative tests as directed in 5.2.1 are advisable.5.2.1 In case of a dispute arising from differences inreported test results when using this procedure for acceptanceof commercial shipments, the purchaser and the suppliershould first confirm that the tests have been con

25、ducted usingcomparable test parameters including specimen conditioning,normal stress, hydraulic system gradient, etc. Comparativetests then should be conducted to determine if there is astatistical bias between their laboratories. Competent statisticalassistance is recommended for the investigation

26、of bias. As aminimum, the two parties should take a group of test speci-mens that are as homogeneous as possible and that are formedfrom a lot of the material in question. The test specimensshould be assigned randomly to each laboratory for testing.The average results from the two laboratories shoul

27、d becompared using the Students t-test for unpaired data and anacceptable probability level chosen by the two parties beforetesting is begun. If bias is found, either its cause must be foundand corrected or the purchaser and supplier must agree tointerpret future test results in light of the known b

28、ias.6. Apparatus6.1 A schematic drawing of a typical constant head assem-bly is shown in Fig. 1. The individual components andaccessories are as follows:6.1.1 BaseThe bottom section of the apparatus should beconstructed of a sturdy metal or plastic plate with a smooth, flatcontact surface. The cente

29、r inlet hole shall be 50 mm 2 in.The outside dimension of the base must match or exceed theoutside diameter of the test specimen. A manometer tap shouldbe located in the sidewall of the inlet opening.6.1.2 Perimeter Containment/Outlet WeirAperimeter ringconcentric with the outside diameter of the te

30、st specimen withsufficient height to contain the tail water, such that thespecimen remains submerged under water at all times duringthe test. The containment ring should double as the overflowwier, with a beveled edge around the perimeter, with an outerconcentric collection trough for collection of

31、the overflow.Alternatively, the containment ring may include a rectangularoverflow weir at one location in the ring that is at least 2.5 cmwide with a beveled overflow plate.6.1.3 Loading PlatenA sturdy circular metal or plasticdisc with a smooth, flat contact surface. The outside diameterof the pla

32、ten should be 300 mm 12 in. The platen/specimendiameter establishes the outside diameter, Ro. The upper platenshould have a spherical chamber of an outside diametermatching the outside diameter of the inlet opening to facilitatecollection of any air bubbles that may collect at the specimeninlet. Thi

33、s chamber should be tapped at the apex to allowventing. This tap may also be connected to a manometer formeasurement of the inlet head.6.1.4 Rubber Base and Platen SurfacesA rubber mem-brane (sheet) material of buna, butyl, or neoprene rubber 1.5 to2.5 mm 116 to332 in. thick with a Shore A hardness

35、stainable over the seating and testing period.The use of staticweights, a hydraulic, or a pneumatic ram meeting the aboveconditions may be considered sufficient for use in this testmethod.6.1.6 Constant Head Device (CHD)A device typicallyequipped with an inlet, two outlets, and an internal overfloww

36、eir or riser. The device should be sized to sustain steady flowconditions under the flow rates involved in the testing.6.1.6.1 Do not use the water level at the CHD to measurethe inlet head. The inlet head measurement shall be with themanometer tapped directly into the inlet chamber or the platentra

37、p.6.1.7 ManometersA manometer tap shall be installed inthe perimeter containment section to measure the tail headdirectly and, as detailed in the above sections, within the inletopening in the base to measure the inlet head directly. If arectangular weir is used (see 6.1.2), the tail head tap should

38、 belocated in the perimeter outflow trough at 90 to the weirlocation.6.1.7.1 The influence of the meniscus tension within themanometer sight tubes on the head measurements should bechecked by performing a test in accordance with this testmethod, then ramping the gradient back up to the maximumvalue

39、(see 10.8 and 10.9). The resulting degree of hyteresis inthe plot of flow rate versus gradient provides a measure of thesight tube accuracy. If the meniscus effect results in a differ-ence in flow rate values at a given gradient of more than 5 %,the sight tube accuracy should be improved by increasi

40、ng theinside diameter of the sight tubes, or by using tubes made ofglass instead of plastic, or both.6.1.8 Flowrate Measuring EquipmentEquipment that re-sults in a measurement event accuracy of 62 % of theassociated flowrate.
