Summary of Test Method4.

26、1 A plastic or other waterproof lightweight material con-tainer of 5 US gal (18.95 L), full volume, is filled using a watersource with a relatively constant flow to determine test flowrate, and which is then allowed to overflow the container at thecalculated flow rate onto the test site area in an u

27、nconfinedmanner. The amount of time, in seconds, required to fill thecontainer to the point of overtopping (overflowing) is set as the5-gal flow rate of the test.4.2 The container shall be leveled using the water levelacross the top of the container as the gauge. Leveling thecontainer is accomplishe

28、d using wood wedges, shims orsimilar devices. This leveling is intended to allow a somewhatuniform flow overtopping the full circumference of the topedge of the container.4.3 A splash board made of plywood or other material canbe placed below the container to control the erosive forcesassociated wit

29、h the falling water on the test surface. This is notrequired however may be helpful during the procedure.4.4 The test site area is pre-saturated by a volume ofapproximately 50 US gal (189.5 L) of water which hasoverflowed the container onto the surface and allowed tospread in an unconfined manner. T

30、his volume of water is thenallowed to dissipate into the surface system or stone base untilthe surface is considered to be a dry surface. The 50 US gal(189.5 L) volume is metered based on the multiplying the timeto fill the 5 gal container by a factor of 10.0. The 50 US gal(189.5 L) volume represent

31、s a volume equivalent to 1.0 in.(25.4 mm) of rain, applied without the effect of a hydraulichead, over an 80 ft2(7.43 m2) area. At the point when thepre-wetted area on the surface is considered a dry surface thesite is considered pre-saturated and ready for the 25 gal testvolume.4.5 The site is then

32、 flooded by the unconfined containeroverflow of 25 US gal (94.75 L) of water which has overflowedthe container onto the surface and allowed to spread in anunconfined manner. This volume of water is then allowed todissipate into the surface system or stone base until the surfaceis considered to be a

33、dry surface. The 25 US gal (94.75 L)volume is metered based on the multiplying the time to fill 5gal container by a factor of 5.0. The 25 US gal (94.75 L)volume represents an approximate volume equivalent to 0.5 in.(12.7 mm) of rain, applied without the effect of a hydraulichead, over an 80 ft2(7.43

34、 m2) area. The inclusive time periodin seconds, from the start of container overflow to the pointwhen the wetted surface of the test area is considered to be adry surface, is recorded. This time period is identified as thetime to dry. The wetted surface area of the test site is measuredto determine

35、the area of test site. Using the measured area ofthe test site and the actual volume of the 25 US gal test, apermeability rate is calculated.5. Significance and Use5.1 This test method can be used to determine in-placepermeability of synthetic turf playing field systems, playingfield systems with pa

36、d and or premolded drainage boards,playing field systems with premolded panel base systems,porous and non porous pavement systems in order to confirmcompliance with design specifications and or evaluate existingas-built conditions. The simplicity of the test method, thequickness of the procedure, an

37、d the limited requirement forspecial tools and apparatus makes this ideal for performing alarge quantity of tests over a large area such as a sports field.5.2 Synthetic turf field systems tend to drain under severalflow regimes. The first flow regime is surface flow where watertravels across the sur

38、face from typically higher elevations tolower elevations. The second flow regime is flow through theturf surface and base system. The third flow regime is lateralF2898 112flow, which has two parts. Lateral flow within the section of theturf surface and lateral flow within the pre-molded drainageboar

39、d, porous pavement and or base stone system below theturf. These are depicted diagrammatically in Fig. 1.5.3 This test method can provide owners, designers and turfsystem builders with a clear indication of actual in-fieldpermeability flow rates with limited effect of lateral flowthrough base system

40、s and no effect from head pressure.5.4 This test method can be used to determine the effective-ness of treatments intended to reduce the effect of hydropho-bicity which has been known to decrease the permeability ofsome synthetic turf infill materials and components.5.5 The observable performance of

41、 the test method enablesone to determine permeability by both a quantitative andqualitative measure.6. Interferences6.1 The test site should be free from surface drains or otherconditions that would result in nonrepresentative permeabilityrates. Other conditions such as open graded clean stone direc

42、tlyexposed at the surface would be expected to impact the testresults.6.2 In fields where collector piping backfill is open-gradedand brought to the stone surface, care should be taken tolocated test sites such that impact from these areas is avoidedor clearly noted in the test report.7. Apparatus7.

43、1 Plastic Container, with a measured and confirmedvolume of approximately 5 US gal (18.95 L). See Fig. 2.7.1.1 The container shall be container clean of any debris orchemicals that may act as a surfactant.NOTE 1Soap residue can act as a surfactant which may reducehydrophobicity and impact the result

44、s of the test method.7.1.2 The container volume must be measured and con-firmed prior to the test and the actual measured volumerecorded in the test report. Volume shall be measured to thenearest 0.1 US gal (0.4 L).NOTE 2For ease of calculation, the container volume can be measuredand a base fill li

45、ne near the container bottom representing the excessvolume over the 5.0 gal quantity can be added to allow the testing volumeto be consistently 5.0 gal. In this case, the base fill line represents the pointat which 5.0 gal of volume is above the line.7.1.3 The container should be equipped with a sui

46、tablehandle for moving the full bucket into and out of the test site.NOTE 3It is recommended that water from the container not bepoured onto the test site until the procedure is completed and that careshould be taken to avoid damaging fine graded surfaces by aggressivelypouring excess water from the

47、 container onto the test area.7.2 Constant Water Source:7.2.1 Asource of water capable of supplying a constant flowrate throughout the test period must be used. Water supplies,whether public, private well or construction tank tend to varyover time and must be measured and reconfirmed for each testan

48、d test location. This method requires that for each test a newtime to fill the container must be obtained. Should a test bedelayed such that the period of time between the time to fillmeasurement and the actual test is greater than one hour thetime to fill the container shall be re-measured. This pr

49、ocedureallows variations in water source system flow rate to beaccounted for.7.2.2 A minimum flow rate from the water source of 2.0 galin 60 s (2.0 gal per minute) is recommended. This, 2.0 gal in60 s (2 gal per minute), will result in approximately 150 s (2FIG. 1 Basic Flow Regime DiagramFIG. 2 Test Container DiagramF2898 113min, 30 s) to fill the bucket. Depending on the permeability ofthe test area, supply flow rates less than 2.0 gal in 60 s (2 galper minute) may not be adequate to produce a wetted area of4.0 ft2or greater.7.2.3 Further, at 4.0 ft2of test
