Soil, Investigation and Testing - Water Content - Part 2: Determination by Rapid Methods
Also Known As:
DIN 18121-2 is a standard that provides guidelines for determining the water content of soil using rapid methods. The scope of this document is to establish the procedures for cohesive and non-cohesive soils where the soil constituents remain unchanged chemically during the testing process.
The standard recognizes the need for quick and efficient methods to determine the water content of soil samples. These rapid methods are useful in cases where a high volume of samples needs to be tested or where time constraints exist.
By following the procedures outlined in DIN 18121-2, one can accurately measure the water content of both cohesive and non-cohesive soils. It is important to note that the methods described in this standard are applicable only to soils where the solid components do not undergo any chemical transformations during the testing process.
