Standard EN Sample
Geotechnical Investigation and Testing - Geohydraulic Testing - Water Permeability Tests in a Borehole Using Closed Systems
Also Known As:
BS EN ISO 22282-6:2012 is a standard that specifies the requirements for conducting water permeability tests in a borehole using closed systems. This standard is part of the geotechnical investigation services and is in accordance with EN 1997-1 and EN 1997-2. The purpose of these tests is to determine the local permeability in soils and rocks below or above the groundwater table in a closed system.
These tests are specifically designed to determine the permeability coefficient (k) in low permeability soil and rock, where the permeability is lower than 10-8 m/s. Additionally, the tests can also be used to determine the transmissivity (T) and the storage coefficient (S).
It is important to note that BS EN ISO 22282-6:2012 does not cover water pressure tests in rock, as this is addressed in BS EN ISO 22282-3:2012. The standard is part of a series that includes other parts such as general rules, water permeability tests using open systems, pumping tests, and infiltrometer tests.
