1、Designation:D656718Standard Test Method forMeasuring the Light Penetration of a Rolled Erosion ControlProduct(RECP)1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6567;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of
2、 last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This test method covers measuring the amount ofincandescent light that penetrates through a rolled erosioncontrol product.
3、1.2 This test method does not provide light penetrationvalues for RECPs under variable normal sun and soil condi-tions.This test method determines nominal light penetration.1.3 This test method is not to be used to determine a percentground cover value for RECPs,as the amount of lightpenetration may
4、 include light passing through translucentmaterial or reflecting off surfaces.1.4 The values stated as a percentage are to be regarded asthe standard.The values provided in footcandles are forinformation only.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated w
5、ith its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.1.6 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized pr
