1、Designation:D585615Standard Test Method forMeasurement of Hydraulic Conductivity of Porous MaterialUsing a Rigid-Wall,Compaction-Mold Permeameter1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D5856;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in th
2、e case of revision,the year of 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 laboratory measurement of thehydraulic conductivity(also referred to
3、 as coeffcient of per-meability)of laboratory-compacted materials with a rigid-wall,compaction-mold permeameter.1.2 This test method may be used with laboratory-compacted specimens that have a hydraulic conductivity lessthan or equal to 1 105m/s.The hydraulic conductivity ofcompacted materials that
4、have hydraulic conductivities greaterthan 1 105m/s may be determined by Test Method D2434.1.3 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas the standard,unless other units are specifically given.Bytradition in U.S.practice,hydraulic conductivity is reported incm/s,although the common SI un
