7、and consisting principally ofnonwoven geotextile,impregnated by a blend of oxidized orpolymer-modified bitumen incorporating filler.3.2 For definitions of other terms used in this test method,refer to Terminology D4439.4.Significance and Use4.1 This method is used to evaluate the tensile properties
8、ofBGMs.It can be used for manufacturing quality control oracceptance testing.4.2 This test method uses a dumbbell specimen.The shapeand dimensions of the specimen are defined in this standard.No other shape or dimensions are allowed.Other mechanicalproperties of BGMs may be measured using different
9、testmethods.Refer to Guide D6455.4.3 The reported properties are the maximum strength andelongation at maximum strength.5.Apparatus5.1 Tensile instrumentation shall meet the requirementsoutlined in Test Method D638.5.2 GripsOne of the grips must be self-aligning to com-pensate for uneven distributio
10、n of force across the specimen.The clamping force and the clamp surfaces shall hold thespecimen firmly without causing damage.5.3 Grip FacesGrip faces shall be a minimum of 50 mm(2 in.)wide and a minimum of 50 mm(2 in.)in length.Smoothrubber,fine serrated,or coarse serrated grip faces have all beenf
11、ound to be suitable for testing BGMs.If needed,the use of asilicone-coated paper to help holding the specimen ends intothe grips is recommended.The silicone-coated side is to beused in contact with the specimen.6.Sampling and Test Specimens6.1 Sampling shall be conducted according to PracticeD4354.6
12、.2 Take a sample that will exclude material from the outerwrap of the roll or the inner wrap around the core.In the casewhere the sample is taken at the production site,material fromthe outer wrap may be used if it is undamaged.6.3 Test SpecimensPrepare five specimens with the lengthof the specimen
13、parallel to the machine direction(MD)and fivespecimens with the length parallel to the cross-machine direc-tion(XD).1This test method is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D35 onGeosynthetics and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D35.10 on Geomem-branes.Current edition approved Feb.
