Standard Test Method for Vertical Strip Drains Using a Large Scale Consolidation Test

SKU181119555 Published by ASTM International, formerly American Society for Testing and Materials ASTM Publication Date2009 Pages CountPages6

The ASTM D7498/D7498M-09 (R2014)e1 standard is a performance test for measuring the effectiveness of vertical strip drains on the time rates of consolidation of compressible soils. The test method is not intended to be conducted by the manufacturer, but rather by the design agency responsible for performing the test.

The standard highlights that this test should not be considered as an acceptance test for commercial shipments of prefabricated vertical strip drains. It explains that vertical strip drains can be used to increase the rate of soil consolidation, replacing the need for large diameter sand drains. The test method can also be utilized to compare the performance of vertical strip drains with sand drains.
