Summary of Test Method4.1 Geonet specimens are mounted between full-width grips

9、in a load frame. Tensile load is applied longitudinally to thespecimen at a constant rate of crosshead movement. The test iscarried to rupture and a maximum breaking force of eachspecimen is recorded.5. Significance and Use5.1 This method evaluates tensile breaking force of geonetsfor the purposes o

10、f quality control and quality assurance.Testing is performed parallel to the machine direction only, forthat is the primary direction that geonets witness tensileloading. This method is an index test and is not intended fordesign purposes.6. Apparatus6.1 Tensile Testing MachineConstant rate of exten

The clamps shall becapable of gripping a 100-mm (4-in.) by 25-mm (1-in.) area ata minimum.6.3 Recording MechanismThe testing machine shall beequipped

17、est Specimens, and Test Units7.1 Lot SampleFor the lot sample, take rolls of geonet perthe applicable project specification, or as agreed upon betweenpurchaser and supplier. Unless otherwise specified, refer toPractice D4354.7.2 Laboratory SampleFor laboratory sample, take a full-width swatch approx

18、imately1m(3ft)long by roll width foreach roll in the lot sample. Take a sample that will excludematerial from the outer wrap of the roll or the inner wraparound the core. In the case where the sample is taken at theproduction site, material from the outer wrap may be used if itis undamaged.7.3 Test

19、SpecimensPrepare five specimens with the lengthof the specimen parallel to the machine direction (MD). Cut thespecimens such that none is obtained within 150 mm (6 in.) ofthe roll edges.7.4 Specimen Size and ShapeThe specimens shall be 1026 2mm(46 0.08 in.) wide by 203 6 4mm(86 0.16 in.)long (test d

20、irection). Die-cut test specimens are recommended.7.5 Test UnitTest five specimens distributed evenly fromacross the width of each laboratory sample in the longitudinal(machine) direction only. It may be desirable to test specimensin the transverse (cross-machine) direction for special pur-poses.NOT

21、E 1Depending on the application/installation of geonets, trans-verse (cross-machine) direction specimens can be tested at the clientsrequest, but they are not a requirement.8. Conditioning8.1 ConditioningSpecimens may be tested once they haveequilibrated at standard laboratory temperature. The timer

22、equired to reach temperature equilibrium may vary accordingto the manufacturing process, material type, and materialthickness. Equilibrium in this case is defined as less than adegree Celsius change in temperature in an hour and less thana gram change in mass within an hour.8.2 Test ConditionsConduc

23、t tests at the standard atmo-sphere for testing geosynthetics, a temperature of 21 6 2C(70 6 4 F) and a relative humidity between 50 to 70 %, unlessotherwise specified.9. Procedure9.1 Set the distance between the gripping portions of theclamps 100 mm (4 in.) apart.9.2 Clamp a specimen so that it is

24、centered in both sets ofclamps and aligned vertically about the centroid of the tensiletesting machine. This is a critical point, since the breakingforce is significantly altered if the specimen is not aligned.9.3 Elongate the specimen at a test speed of 300 mm/min(12 in./min) until the specimen has

25、 ruptured. If the specimenslips in the clamps, breaks in the clamps, breaks at the edges ofthe clamps, or if for any reason attributable to faulty operationthe result falls markedly below the average (outliers are definedas greater than 20 % from the mean) for the set of specimens,discard the result

26、 and test an additional specimen.9.4 Record peak load. The peak load is the geonet breakingforce.9.5 Repeat the procedure for the remaining specimens.10. Calculation10.1 Calculate the tensile strength of individual specimens;that is, the maximum tensile breaking force per unit widthexpressed in N/m

27、(lbf/in.), using Eq 1, as follows:f5 Ff Ws(1)where:f= tensile strength per unit width, N/m (lbf/in.),Ff= observed breaking force, N (lbf), andWs= specimen width, m (in.).11.

Precision and Bias312.1 The pr

29、ecision of this test method is based on anInterlaboratory study of D717905, Standard Test Method forDetermining Geonet Breaking Force, conducted in 2006. Ninelaboratories tested one material. Each “test result” was theaverage of five individual determinations. Each laboratoryobtained three replicate
