This document specifies a method for measuring the steady-state liquid flow through a geosynthetic
barrier, used to contain liquids in long-term applications.
The test method and described apparatus allow the measurement of flows accurately down to 10–6m3/m2/day. In particular circumstances where testing indicates that values obtained for a geosynthetic barrier lie below the threshold of sensitivity of this test method, then the value of liquid flow is declared as being less than10–6m3/m2/day.
Due to its long duration, this test method is not suitable for production control testing.
Clay geosynthetic barriers cannot be tested with this apparatus.Cross References:ISO 5813EN 25813All current amendments available at time of purchase are included with the purchase of this document.
