1、Designation: D 7208 06Standard Test Method forDetermination of Temporary Ditch Check Performance inProtecting Earthen Channels from Stormwater-InducedErosion1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 7208; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal ado

2、ption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method covers the guidelines, requirements,and procedures fo

3、r evaluating the ability of temporary ditchchecks to protect earthen channels from stormwater-inducederosion. Critical elements of this protection are the ability ofthe temporary ditch check to:1.1.1 Slow and/or pond runoff to encourage sedimentation,thereby reducing soil particle transport downstre

4、am;1.1.2 Trap soil particles up stream of structure; and1.1.3 Decrease soil erosion.1.2 This test method utilizes full-scale testing procedures,rather than reduced-scale (bench-scale) simulation, and ispatterned after conditions typically found on construction sitesat the conclusion of earthwork ope

5、rations, but prior to the startof revegetation work. Therefore this test method considers onlyunvegetated conditions.1.3 This test method provides a comparative evaluation of atemporary ditch check to baseline bare soil conditions undercontrolled and documented conditions.1.4 The values stated in SI

6、 units are to be regarded asstandard. The inch-pound units given in parentheses areprovided for information purposes only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-

7、priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use. Also, the user mustcomply with prevalent regulatory codes, such as OSHA (Oc-cupational Health and Safety Administration) guidelines, whileusing the test method.2. Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM

16、 airports; residential, com-mercial and industrial developments; pipelines, mines, andlandfills; golf courses; etc.5.3 This test method is a performance test. It is a compara-tive tool for evaluating the erosion control characteristics ofdifferent temporary ditch checks and can be used for qualityco

17、ntrol to determine product conformance to project specifi-cations. Take caution when comparing results from differentlaboratories because information about between-laboratoryprecision is incomplete and slight differences in soil and otherenvironmental and geotechnical conditions may affect tempo-rar

18、y ditch check performance. Unique project-specific condi-tions should be taken into consideration.6. Apparatus6.1 Water Delivery SystemThe water delivery systemshall include pump(s), piping, channels, and water controlstructures, as necessary, to achieve the desired hydraulicconditions. The water co

19、ntrol structures shall regulate the flowand to direct it into the desired test channel. The water deliverysystem shall be constructed such that turbulence at the entranceto the test channel is minimized. Use of flow straighteners (forexample, tube racks or vanes) are recommended to reduceturbulence

20、and achieve uniform flow conditions. A direct flowsystem (that is, controlled flow diverted from a natural water-way) may also be employed for this purpose. The waterdelivery system in Fig. 1 shows an example of a closed-loopwater delivery system.6.2 Water SourceAny water source shall be suitable fo

21、rthis use provided that it is not sediment laden or containsdeleterious materials that could impair the operation of thepumps.6.3 Total Station SystemThe total station system is astandard surveying instrument that is capable of measuringvertical and horizontal angles, and distance, simultaneously to

22、determine measurement point coordinates (that is, X, Y and Zaxis) and that uses an internal data logger to store thisinformation for future use. In lieu of a total station system,manual surveying equipment may be used provided thatequivalent accuracy is achievable. Periodic calibration andcertificat

23、ion of this equipment shall be performed.6.4 Velocity ProbeA velocity probe capable of measuringpoint velocities to an accuracy of 6 0.03 m/s (0.1 ft/s) shall beused to identify flow conditions during test operation. Accept-able types of probes include electromagnetic, spinning cup,propeller, and st

24、atic tube devices. Periodic calibration andcertification of this equipment shall be performed.6.5 MiscellaneousOther miscellaneous equipment in-cludes: meteorological equipment (wind speed, temperature,precipitation), and cameras or video recorders.7.

Perform compaction of channel bedmaterial to create a stable subgrade.7.1.2 Plate the channel surface with a minimum 45 cm (18in) thick veneer of soil. General soil types

26、 to be used for testingshall be loam, clay, and sand. Target grain sizes and plasticityindices are included in Table 1.

Thetest channels shall be a minimum of 18.3 m (60 ft) in length toallow sufficient distance between temporary ditch check struc-tures during testing. Bed slope shall be approximatel

28、y 5 %. Fig.2 shows a typical channel profile and Fig. 3 shows a typicalchannel cross-section.7.1.4 Begin the test reach far enough below the inlet to thechannel to ensure flow is uniform and extend 12.2 m (40 ft)downstream from that point. Establish benchmarks on eitherside of the channel at each en

29、d of the test reach and at 1.5 m(5 ft) intermediate intervals (nine cross-sections total).7.1.5 Loosen the soil veneer in the test reach and 1.5 m (5ft) upstream and downstream of the test reach to a depth ofapproximately 10 cm (4 in.) using a tiller or other appropriatetools. Rake the tilled channe

30、l smooth with a steel hand rake andcompact. Repair depressions, voids, soft or uncompacted areasbefore testing can commence. Also, free the channel fromobstruction or protrusions, such as roots, large stones or otherforeign material.7.1.6 If the channel has been used previously for a testseries, dis

31、card the soil carried out of the channel, and obliterateany rills and gullies. Spread new soil of the same type acrossthe channel and blend (rake or tilled) into the surface.7.2 Calibration:7.2.1 Perform determination of the water delivery systemdischarge (Q). Begin calibration of the water delivery

32、 systemwhen a steady-state flow is achieved.7.2.2 For open-channel water delivery systems, measure thedepth of water flowing into the test channel.

38、 andside slopes (longitudinal or lateral); placement (which sidefaces up); termination details; joint details; spacing betweentemporary ditch checks if more than one is to be tested, and;anchor type and installation pattern. Place the temporary ditchcheck(s) across the channel bottom perpendicular t
