Procedure9.1 Geotextile containers provided by the manufacturer areconstructed by sewing one or more geotextile layers ofgeotextile together to form a container. Test A containers shallbe 114-cm (45-in.) insid

30、e circumference and 163 cm (64 in.)long as shown in Fig. 1. A hem edge is provided along thecircumference of the container opening. Eight 1-cm (-in.)diameter metal grommets are evenly spaced about 2.5 cm (1in.) from the hem edge. Fabric seams are constructed by twodouble-lock stitches to contain the

31、 dredged material as it wouldbe in the prototype. Test B containers shall be 0.92m (3.0 feet)FIG. 2 Hanging bag for procedure AD7701 113deep and 1.52m (5 feet) circumference as shown in Fig. 4. Fourevenly spaced straps are sewn to the top finished edge. Fabric9J9 seams are constructed by two double-

32、lock stitches along thesides of the bag. There should be no seam at the bottom of thebag.9.2 When appropriate, pre-wet the geotextile container bysoaking the geotextile in prefiltered water from the proposeddredge area until fabric is fully soaked and saturated. Do notuse distilled de-ionized or wat

33、er from any other source.9.3 Attach the geotextile container to a frame or otherapparatus capable of safely holding 50 pounds, or in the case ofTestA, a sheet metal pipe with 1-cm (3/8-in.) galvanized bolts,washers, and nuts through the eight evenly spaced metalgrommets as shown inFig. 1. There shou

34、ld be a clearance ofabout 20 cm (8 in.) for the bottom of the container above thefloor of the platform to accommodate removal the collectionpans as they fill with sediment and water.9.4 After the soaked geotextile container has drained of freewater, place a dry shallow collector pan as described in

35、6.3 and7.2 under the geotextile container to collect water and sedimentby gravity flow.9.5 For Test A, obtain about 150 to 190 L (40 to 50 gal) ofthe site-specific dredged material in a 208-L(55-gal) container.Thoroughly agitate the dredged materials with the stirrer for 1min to mix in free decant w

36、ater to obtain a uniform consistencythat would be representative of dredged material after excava-tion and placement. Immediately pour this mix through anadequate size funnel attached to the geotextile container andstart the stopwatch simultaneously. For Test B, obtain approxi-mately 19 L (5 gallons

Carefully place the water andsediment sample with all visible sediment in approved cleanglass containers marked with the time

39、, quantity, and order inwhich they were collected and recorded. For Test B, removethe shallow container at predetermined time intervals, imme-diately replace with a clean container, measure the volume inthe first container and record. A sample may be saved for lateranalysis. Typical time intervals w

40、ould be 2, 5, 10, 15, 30, 45,60 minutes followed by measurements at longer time intervalsup to 24 hours and a maximum of 48 hours.9.7 ForTestA, collect water and sediment from the drainageof the dredged material in the shallow aluminum pans untildrainage has slowed to less than a 2.5-cm (1-in.) dept

41、h in thepan per 24 hours. This completes the filtrate sample collectionphase of the test.9.8 At the completion of the sample collection, agitate thecollected filtrate in each container with a stirrer until themixture is uniformly mixed, After 1 min of mixing, obtain adepthintegrated suspended solids

42、 sample from the mixturewhile continuing the agitation.NOTE 1With the sampler specified in 6.4, a rate of sampling thatrequires 30 s to reach the bottom of the container and 30 s to return to thesurface is ideal. This sampling procedure allows collection of a sampleover the full depth of the mixture
