United States14. Significance and Use4.1 This test method

16、 is used to measure one-dimensionalvertical flow of water through initially saturated TDAs underan applied hydraulic gradient. Hydraulic conductivity is re-quired in various civil engineering applications of TDAs.4.2 TDAs are to be tested at a unit weight and under anoverburden pressure representati

17、ve of field conditions. Datafrom the literature indicate a reduction in hydraulic conductiv-ity with increasing vertical pressure (1).4.3 Use of a dual-ring permeameter is included in this testmethod in addition to a single-ring permeameter. The dual-ringpermeameter allows for minimizing potential a

18、dverse effects ofsidewall leakage on measured hydraulic conductivity of the testspecimens. The use of a bottom plate with an inner ring with adiameter smaller than the diameter of the permeameter and twooutflow ports (one from the inner ring, one from the annularspace between the inner ring and the

19、permeameter) allows forseparating the flow from the central part of the test specimenfrom the flow near the sidewall of the permeameter.4.4 Darcys law is assumed to be valid, flow is assumed tobe laminar (Reynolds number less than approximately20003000), and the hydraulic conductivity is assumed to

20、beessentially independent of hydraulic gradient. The validity ofDarcys law may be evaluated by measuring the hydraulicconductivity of a specimen at three hydraulic gradients. Thedischarge velocity (v = k i) is plotted against the appliedhydraulic gradient. If the resulting relationship is linear and

21、 themeasured hydraulic conductivity values are similar (i.e., within25 %), then Darcys law may be taken as valid.NOTE 1The quality of the result produced by this standard isdependent of the competence of the personnel using this standard and thesuitability of the equipment and facilities. Agencies t

22、hat meet the criteriaof Practice D3740 are generally considered capable of competent andobjective testing/sampling/inspection/etc. Users of this standard are cau-tioned that compliance with Practice D3740 does not in itself assurereliable results. Reliable results depend on many factors; Practice D3

23、740provides a means of evaluating some of these factors.5. Apparatus5.1 Schematics of the various components of two setupsused to determine hydraulic conductivity of TDAs usingrigid-wall permeameters under constant head conditions areprovided for single-ring and dual-ring devices in Fig. 1(a) and(b)

24、, respectively.5.2 Constant-Head Hydraulic SystemThe hydraulic sys-tem is used to apply, maintain, and measure heads and resultinghydraulic gradients in a test. The hydraulic system mainlyconsists of reservoirs that hold water and associated piping,tubing, valves, and connections. Pressure applicati

25、on setupsmay also be used to pressurize influent and effluent liquids, inparticular to apply high hydraulic gradients. The system shallallow for maintaining constant hydraulic head to within 65%or better accuracy during a test. The system shall allow formeasurement of the constant head to within 65

26、% or betteraccuracy during a test. The head shall be measured with agraduated pipette, engineers scale, pressure gauge, electronicpressure transducer, or any other device that has the resolutionrequired for the determination of head to the accuracy providedabove.5.2.1 System De-airingThe hydraulic s

27、ystem shall bedesigned to facilitate rapid and complete removal of free airbubbles from flow lines. This can be accomplished for exampleby using properly sized tubing and ball valves, and fittingswithout pipe threads. Properly sized components are smallenough to prevent entrapment of air bubbles, bu

28、t are largeenough not to cause head losses as described in 6.1.5.3 Flow-Measurement SystemFlow-measurement systemis used to determine the amount of inflow and outflow from aspecimen during a test. The measurement device shall allowfor the measurement of the quantity of flow (both inflow andoutflow)

29、over an interval of time to within 65 % or betteraccuracy. Flow-measurement system may consist of a gradu-ated accumulator, Mariotte bottle, vertical standpipe in con-junction with an electronic pressure transducer, electromag-netic flow meter, or other volume-measuring device that hasthe resolution

30、 required to determine flow to the accuracyprovided above. In most cases, these devices are common tothe hydraulic system.5.3.1 De-airing and Dimensional Stability of the SystemThe flow-measurement system shall contain a minimum ofdead space and shall be equipped to allow for complete andrapid de-ai

31、ring. Dimensional stability of the system withrespect to changes in pressure shall be ensured by using a stiffflow-measurement system that includes glass pipe or rigidmetallic or thermoplastic tubing.5.4 Vertical Pressure Application SystemThe system forapplying vertical pressure on the TDA specimen

32、 in the per-meameter (if used) shall allow for applying and controlling thepressure to within 65 % or better accuracy. The verticalpressure application system may include a dead-weight loadapplication setup; a hydraulic load application system; or anyother system that allows for application of the d

33、esired level ofpressure to a specimen via the top of the specimen.5.5 PermeameterThe permeameter shall consist of a per-meameter cell and attached equipment that allow for connect-ing the permeameter to the hydraulic system, the flow-measurement system, and the pressure application system, aswell as

34、 provisions to support a specimen and to permeate thespecimen. The permeameter cell shall consist of a rigid mold,cover plate, base plate, and attachments to hold the componentstogether without leakage during a test. The diameter of thepermeameter shall be determined based on the nominal size(define

35、d as the average particle size that comprises more than50 % of a TDA sample per Practice D6270) of the TDA to betested. A permeameter diameter at least 6 times the nominalparticle size has been shown to be adequate (1).Apermeameterwith a diameter of 0.30 m and a height of 0.12 m wasdemonstrated to b

36、e effective for testing tire chips with dimen-sions of 38 76 mm (2).5.5.1 Rigid Permeameter MoldThe permeameter cellshall consist of a rigid-wall mold into which the tire specimento be tested is placed and in which the test specimen ispermeated. The mold shall be constructed of a rigid materialsuch

37、as steel, aluminum, brass, or plastic that will not bedamaged during placement/compression of the specimen in themold. The mold shall be cylindrical in shape. The cross-sectional area along the direction of flow shall not vary byD7760 122more than 62 % and the height shall not vary by more than61 %.

38、 The permeameter shall be designed and operated suchthat permeant water flows downward through the test speci-men, although upward flow may be used if the top of thespecimen is protected from upward movement by a rigidporous element. Provisions may be included along the sidewallof the permeameter to

39、 directly attach the mold to the constant-head hydraulic system or the flow-measurement system orboth. Hydraulic gradient measurements may be made using thestand pipe piezometer attachments on the sidewall.5.5.2 Top PlateThe top plate shall be constructed of arigid material that does not react adver

40、sely with the testmaterial or permeant water. The top plate may be sealed to therigid-wall permeameter cell using an O-ring or similar prevent-ing leakage or the plate may be perforated and not sealed to thepermeameter cell based on the design of the test setup.AsealedFIG. 1 Example Test SetupsD7760

41、 123top plate is used when the hydraulic or flow measurementsystems or both are connected to the top plate (or thepermeameter cell) through leak-proof ports or valves, whereasa perforated top plate is used when water is ponded directlyabove a specimen. The top plate shall be designed to ensurethat f

42、low through the test specimen is one-dimensional.5.5.3 Base PlateThe bottom plate shall be constructed ofa rigid material that does not react adversely with the testmaterial or permeant water. The base plate shall be sealed tothe rigid-wall permeameter cell using an O-ring or similarpreventing leaka

43、ge. The plate shall be designed to ensure thatflow through the test specimen is one-dimensional. If adual-ring permeameter is used, the diameter of the inner ringshall be 80 % of the diameter of the permeameter mold and theinner ring shall be concentric to the mold. The height of theinner ring shall

44、 be 5 % of the height of the mold.5.5.4 Porous End PiecesThe specimen shall be overlainand underlain by porous end pieces. Porous end pieces shall beused to distribute water uniformly over the surfaces of a testspecimen (that is, areas perpendicular to the direction of flow).Porous end pieces shall

45、be constructed of a material that doesnot react with the specimen or the permeant liquid. Geosyn-thetic materials such as geonets and drainage geocompositesmay be used when high flow through the system is required.The end pieces shall have plane and smooth surfaces and befree of cracks, chips, and d

46、iscontinuities. The top porous endpiece shall have the same diameter (65 % or better accuracy)as the specimen, and shall have sufficient thickness to preventbreaking. If a dual-ring permeameter is used, two porous endpieces are required under the specimen due to the use of thedual-ring base plate. T

47、he first porous end piece with a circularshape shall have a diameter within -5 % of the diameter of theinner ring. The second porous end piece with a disc shape shallhave a width within -5 % of the width of the annular spacebetween the inner collector ring and the permeameter mold.The end pieces sha

48、ll be free from clogging. The hydraulicconductivity of the porous end pieces shall be significantlygreater than that of the specimen to be tested. The requirementsoutlined in 6.1 below ensure that this criterion is satisfied.5.6 Deformation MeasurementThe permeameter may beequipped for determination

49、 of axial deformation of a specimenduring placement or during a test. The deformation of aspecimen shall be determined to the nearest 1 mm. The heightof a specimen may be monitored by direct observation throughthe cell wall using a cathetometer, camera setup, or otherinstrument that has the resolution required for the determina-tion of deformation as prescribed above. The height of aspecimen also may be monitored using a deformation gaugeconnected to the top plate above a specimen or a deformationgauge attached to a loading piston connected to the top pla
