Previous editions DIN 18132: 1995-12 DIN 18132:2012-04 4 1 Scope This standard is intended for use in earthwork and foundation engineering. It specifies a method of determining the water absorption capacity of fine soil. The water a

8、bsorption capacity is a function of the specific surface area of the fines and the activity of clay minerals. The method provides a parameter that can be correlated with soil mechanics parameters such as the liquid limit and the plastic limit, and the swelling and shrinkage characteristics, of the s

9、oil and is thus suitable for use in civil engineering applications for assessing mineral building materials (such as bentonites) which are used for sealing purposes. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

17、absorption capacity (A) of soil: Method DIN 18132 A 5 Apparatus For determining the water absorption capacity, the following apparatus is required: Drying oven. Apparatus for determining the water absorption capacity (see Figure 1), consisting of an extension tube with glass filter disc to receive t

18、he sample, glass tubing, and a burette of 2 ml nominal capacity and with 0,005 ml scale intervals, calibrated at a reference temperature of 20 C. The burette shall be arranged horizontally so that its axis is at a distance of 50 mm 1 mm lower than the top disc surface. The filter shall not be soiled

19、. The extension tube including the filter disc shall either be cleaned (e.g. in an ultrasonic bath) after 50 tests have been carried out, or replaced. Mortar and pestle, or ball mill. DIN 18132:2012-04 6 Balance, capable of being read to an accuracy of 0,003 g. Desiccator. Funnel, short stem (see Fi

20、gure 1); when inserted into the extension tube, the clear distance between stem and filter disc shall be 20 mm. Smooth paper, for filling in the sample material into the extension tube.

Figure 1 Apparatus for determining the water absorption capacity (short-term test) DIN 18132:2012-04 8 6 Sample mass The sample shall have a dry mass of about 20 g and shall

25、 not contain any particles larger than 0,4 mm in diameter. 7 Preparation of equipment The inner surfaces of the glassware shall be clean. In order to preclude false results due to inadequate adhesion of water to the surface, the burette shall be cleaned and rinsed several times with demineralized wa

26、ter prior to testing. The burette (3), glass tubing (2), and extension tube (4) (see Figure 1) including the part above the glass filter disc shall be filled with de-aerated, demineralized water without any bubbles forming and shall be connected taking care that all conical grounds are tight. The bu

27、rette is to be adjusted so as to be horizontal. The water level in the tube is now just at the top face of the disc. Any drop of water adhering to the tip of the burette shall be blotted. The meniscus level now represents the zero reading/zero mark. Any water adhering to the inner surface of the tub

28、e shall be blotted. 8 Sample preparation In order to remove any particles larger than 0,4 mm in diameter, the sample material shall be passed through a 0,4 mm sieve. The undersize shall be dried at 105 C, triturated and then redried at 105 C until constant mass is reached. For cooling to ambient tem

29、perature the sample shall be placed in a desiccator. NOTE 1 Drying at 105 C may cause changes to the water absorption capacity when certain minerals, e.g. three-layer clay minerals (smectites), are involved. This can be significant for a water absorption capacity wAgreater than 80 %. More informatio

30、n in this respect will be obtained if the test is repeated using a sample dried at 60 C. NOTE 2 Ball mills shall not be used for trituration, since this would cause an increase in the specific surface area of particles (depending on the duration of trituration) and thus a higher moisture being measu

31、red. In this respect, the procedure set out in DIN 18124 shall be followed, which specifies that the sample be dried and carefully comminuted (e.g. by using a mortar and pestle). The particles shall not be crushed. 9 Procedure 9.1 Short-term test (1 h) The sample of mass as specified in Table 3 (mas

32、s md) shall be reweighed and placed on the filter disc using the funnel. The stem of the funnel shall be concentric with the tube to obtain a reproducible conical sample. For filling the sample material in the funnel, a sheet of smooth paper (lengthwise folded) shall be used (7). If the duration of

33、the test is expected to be more than 15 min, a glass stopper (8) shall be fitted on the tube (see Figure 1). Table 3 Mass of samples Dry sample mass Anticipated water absorption capacity mdwAg % 1 1 h) In tests lasting more than 1 h, evaporation effects will falsify results. In order to preclude suc

34、h effects, a modified test assembly as illustrated in Figure 2 shall be used. The burette shall be detached from the glass extension tube with its filter disc and shall be reconnected using a flexible hose. The extension tube including the glass tubing shall be placed on a balance (see Clause 5) wit

35、h its auto re-zero function switched off. The balance can be connected to a PC via a data interface. Care shall be taken that the burette is not sucked empty. It shall lie horizontal. For soil highly susceptible to swelling where the absorption process takes more than 24 h, the water absorption capa

36、city shall be that determined after a test duration of 24 h.

39、 absorbed after time t, in cm3; Vkis the volume of water evaporated after time t, in cm3; wis the density of the water; w= 1,0 g/cm3. The moisture content shall then be calculated from: 100dw=mmw % (3) where mdis the dry mass of the sample placed on the filter disc, in g. The water absorption capaci

In the graph, the x axis represents time t on a logarithmic scale, and the y axis represents the moisture content w on a linear scale. 10.2 Determining the water absorption capacity The water absorption capacity wAsh
