Geotechnical investigation and testing - Geohydraulic testing - Part 5: Infiltrometer tests (ISO 22282-5:2012)

This part of ISO 22282 establishes requirements for ground investigations by means of infiltrometer tests as part of geotechnical investigation services in accordance with EN 1997-1 and EN 1997-2. It applies to the in situ determination of the water permeability of an existing geological formation or of treated or compacted materials. The infiltrometer test is used to determine the infiltration capacity of the ground at the surface or shallow depth. It is a simple test for determining the permeability coefficient. The method can be applied using either steadystate or transient conditions, in saturated or unsaturated soils. The principle of the test is based on the measurement of a surface vertical flow rate of water which infiltrates the soil under the influence of a positive hydraulic head. Surface infiltration devices include single and double-ring infiltrometer designs of the open or closed type. The measurement devices and measurement procedures are adapted to different ranges of permeability. Open systems are adapted to permeability ranges from 10-5 to 10-8 m/s and closed systems for permeability lower than 10-8. Depending on the environmental conditions and the water permeability of the soil, a duration of a few minutes to a few days is needed to run the test. This part of ISO 22282 defines the terminology and the measured parameters. It specifies the required characteristics of the equipment, defines the procedures of the tests relating to the different measurement techniques and specifies the tests results. It is applicable to: - civil engineering projects; - hydrogeology studies; and - waste storage.

Geotechnische Erkundung und Untersuchung - Geohydraulische Versuche - Teil 5: Infiltrometerversuche (ISO 22282-5:2012)

Dieser Teil von ISO 22282 behandelt Anforderungen an Erkundungen des Baugrunds mit Hilfe von Infiltrometerversuchen als Teil von geotechnischen Erkundungsdiensten nach EN 1997 1 und EN 1997 2.
Diese Norm gilt für die In situ Bestimmung der Wasserdurchlässigkeit in einer natürlichen geologischen Formation oder von behandelten oder verdichteten Materialien.
Der Infiltrometerversuch wird angewendet, um das Versickerungsvermögen des Baugrunds an der Oberfläche oder in geringer Tiefe zu bestimmen. Es handelt sich um einen einfachen Versuch zur Bestimmung des Durchlässigkeitsbeiwerts. Das Verfahren kann sowohl unter stationären als auch transienten Zuständen und sowohl in gesättigten als auch ungesättigten Böden angewendet werden.
Das Prinzip des Versuchs beruht auf der Messung einer vertikalen Durchflussrate des Wassers an der Oberfläche, das unter dem Einfluss eines hydraulischen Überdrucks in den Boden einsickert.
Geräte für die Oberflächenversickerung umfassen Einzelring  und Doppelring Infiltrometer in offener oder geschlossener Ausführung.
Die Messgeräte und Messverfahren sind auf unterschiedliche Durchlässigkeitsbereiche angepasst: offene Systeme sind auf Bereiche von 10-5 m/s bis 10-8 m/s und geschlossene Systeme auf eine Durchlässigkeit unterhalb 10-8 m/s angepasst.
In Abhängigkeit von den Umgebungsbedingungen und der Wasserdurchlässigkeit des Bodens ist eine Dauer von einigen Minuten bis einigen Tagen erforderlich, um den Versuch durchzuführen.
Dieser Teil von ISO 22282 definiert die Terminologie und die Messparameter. Er legt die erforderlichen Merkmale der Ausrüstung fest, definiert die Versuchsverfahren in Bezug auf die verschiedenen Vorgehensweisen bei der Messung und legt die Versuchsergebnisse fest.
Es ist auf Folgendes anwendbar:
-   Projekte des Ingenieurbaus;
-   hydrogeologische Untersuchungen; und
-   Abfalllagerung.

Geotehnično preiskovanje in preskušanje - Hidrogeološke preiskave - 5. del: Infilometrski preskus (ISO 22282-5:2012)

Ta del standarda ISO 22282 vzpostavlja zahteve za raziskovanje tal z infiltrometrskimi preizkusi kot del geotehničnih raziskovalnih storitev v skladu s standardoma EN 1997-1 in EN 1997-2. Velja za določitev propustnosti vode in situ v obstoječi geološki tvorbi oziroma v obdelanih ali utrjenih materialih. Infiltrometrski preizkus se uporablja za določanje infiltracijske zmožnosti tal na površini ali v manjši globini. To je enostaven preizkus za določitev koeficienta propustnosti. Metodo je mogoče uporabiti z uporabo ustaljenih ali prehodnih pogojev, v nasičenih ali nenasičenih tleh. Načelo tega preizkusa temelji na merjenju hitrosti površinskega vertikalnega toka vode, ki infiltrira v prst pod vplivom pozitivne hidravlične gladine. Površinske infiltracijske naprave vključujejo infiltrometrske oblike z enim obročkom ali z dvema obročkoma odprte ali zaprte vrste. Merilne naprave in merilni postopki so prilagojeni različnim razponom propustnosti. Odprti sistemi so prilagojeni razponom propustnosti od 10-5 do 10-8 m/s, zaprti sistemi pa propustnosti, manjši od 10-8. Za izvedbo preizkusa je potrebnih od nekaj minut do nekaj dni, odvisno od okoljskih pogojev in propustnosti vode v prsti. Ta del standarda ISO 22282 opredeljuje terminologijo in merjene parametre. Določa zahtevane lastnosti opreme, opredeljuje postopke preizkusov v zvezi z različnimi merilnimi tehnikami in določa rezultate preizkusov. Velja za: – projekte na področju gradbeništva; – hidrogeološke študije; in skladiščenje odpadkov.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International
Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.

4.2.3 Closed system
The test cell comprises a single cylindrical ring sealed by a tight rigid lid (see Figures 2 and 3). The diameter of
the ring D shall not be less than 200 mm.
1
The lid shall be equipped with drain valves and test fluid supply valves. A rigid, filtering, porous device resting
on the ground and in contact with the lid (see Figure 2) should be included to confine the test area (to avoid
swelling and soil alteration).
The test device shall be designed to be pushed into the ground to a penetration depth Z of at least 50 mm.
p
To prevent the displacement of the test cell due to the forces generated by the applied pressure, a dead weight
system or anchoring device shall be used. The possible displacement of the test cell shall be monitored with a
resolution of at least 0,01 mm.

When the double ring is used, the hydraulic head shall be the same in both rings.
4.3.2 Closed system
For the constant head procedure, a pressure-volume controller shall be used to impose and to maintain
constant the hydrostatic pressure in the measurement ring. The infiltrated volume variations shall be measured

4.5 Material requirements
Only clean water, free of suspended solids, shall be used.
If sealing material is required for installation of the ring, its composition shall be determined according to
site conditions.
5 Test procedure
5.1 Preparation of the test surface
The test area shall be sufficiently larger than the infiltrometer to allow any leakage to be observed. This surface
shall be horizontal, smooth, clean and undisturbed.
5.2 Installation of the ring or rings
The rings shall be installed such that no undesired lateral leakage occurs and the area of infiltration is clearly defined.
One of the following methods should be used:
— placing the ring in an excavated slot, which is then backfilled with sealant (see Figure 1);
— pushing the ring at least 5 cm into the ground by hammering or applying downward pressure (see Figure 2).
5.3 Conducting the test
5.3.1 General
During the test, observations shall be made to detect any lateral leakage. If lateral leakages occur, the test shall
be terminated, the sealing shall be improved and a new test shall be performed.
The duration of the test depends on the permeability and the water content and degree of saturation of the soil,
as well as on the applied hydraulic head.
