In computing the actual water capture of a geocomposite sheetdrain employed in a specific vegetative (green) roof assembly, the poros

19、ity of the granular drainage medium used must beconsidered (Practice E2397).4. Summary of Test Method4.1 This procedure provides a method for measuring the volume of granular media or water, or both, that geocomposite drainlayers can hold. The test involves filling the geocomposite drain layers with

20、 sand and water to establish the respective volumes.Since water capture will be influenced by the inclination of the geocomposite drain layer, the tests are conducted at severalinclinations.5.
