Sampling7.1 Lot SampleDivide the product into lots and take thelot sample as directed in Practice D4354.7.2 Laboratory SampleCut off sufficient length of thesediment retention device to obtain the

23、 appropriate size of testspecimen. If holes or damaged areas are evident, then damagedmaterial should be discarded and additional material sampled.7.3 Test SpecimenCut the desired number of specimens tobe tested from the laboratory sample.

24、. Procedure8.1 Test Setup and Installation of Sediment Retention De-vice:8.1.1 SRD InstallationThe sediment retention device(SRD) is installed across the open end of the upper box, usingany effective sealing material to seal the bottom and endsagainst the box bottom and walls. The SRD rests against

25、amesh on the downstream side that provides horizontal supportagainst deformation during testing.8.1.2 A “door” is placed across the downstream opening ofthe box to minimize box discharge during initial filling, whichpermits the water to penetrate and surround the SRD prior to itexperiencing seepage

26、forces.8.1.3 Clear water is then allowed to flow or pumped into theupstream side of the box at a rate necessary to raise the waterlevel to the desired level. As the water level approaches thedesired level, the door is removed and seepage through theSRD is allowed and balanced with increased flow/pum

27、pinginto the upstream side of the SRD until steady-state, constant-head flow is achieved. Testing shall be done at a minimum ofthree depths, such as approximately 25 %, 50 %, and 75 % ofthe SRDs maximum height.8.1.4 A schematic is shown in Fig. 2.8.2 Test Procedure:8.2.1 Once steady-state, constant-

28、head conditions areachieved, slide a floating calibrated container under the flowwhile starting a stopwatch.8.2.2 After allowing discharge collection between one-thirdand two-thirds of the depth of the tub, slide the tub back outfrom under the flow and stop the stopwatch.8.2.3 The collected volume i

29、s allowed to calm and the tub isheld in a level position while water depth measurements aremade in the tub. Depth and time measurements are recorded,and the discharge collection is repeated a total of five times.8.2.4 The water level behind the SRD is then adjusted andsteps 8.1.2, 8.1.3, and 8.2.1 8

30、.2.3 are repeated. Measurementsare taken at least three different upstream (constant) waterlevels for each specimen to enable a determination of a flowrate versus depth relationship for the product.
