Standard Test Method for Vertical Compression of Geocomposite Pavement Panel Drains
Also Known As:
ASTM D6244-06 (R2018) standard provides a method for evaluating the performance of geocomposite pavement panel drains under vertical compression. The test is designed to simulate the loads experienced by the drains in actual use, including vertical, horizontal, and eccentric loading.
The purpose of the test is to measure the vertical strain of the panel drains and the change in core area, which can be used as indicators of the drain's performance. The test can also be used to determine the percent vertical strain for a given load.
The standard specifies that the test method can be modified to evaluate core area change and vertical strain under different backfill conditions. This allows for the assessment of the drain's performance under various scenarios.
It is important to note that the values provided in the standard are in SI units and are considered the standard. The values given in parentheses are for informational purposes only.
