BS EN 1097-8:2009 Tests for mechanical and physical properties of aggregates. Determination of the polished stone value
11/10/2009
BS EN 1097-8 describes the test method for mechanical and physical properties of aggregates. This part of the BS EN 1097 series of standards concentrates on determining the polished stone value (PSV) of a coarse aggregate used in road surfacing. PSV is a measure of the resistance of coarse aggregate to the polishing action of vehicle tyres under conditions similar to those occurring on the surface of a road. For other purposes, in particular factory production control, other methods may be used provided that an appropriate working relationship with the reference method has been established. This standard also describes an optional method for the determination of the aggregate abrasion value (AAV). The AAV method should be used when particular types of skid resistant aggregates (typically those with a PSV of 60 or greater) which can be susceptible to abrasion under traffic, are required. CONTENTS of BS EN 1097-8: Foreword; Scope; Normative references; Definitions; Principle; Sampling; Materials; Apparatus; Preparation of test specimens; Conditioning of the rubber-tyred wheel; Accelerated polishing of specimens; Friction test procedure; Calculation and expression of results; Test report; Annex A (normative) Determination of aggregate abrasion value (AAV); Annex B (normative) Control of materials; Annex C (normative) Calibration of the accelerated polishing machine; Annex D (normative) Calibration of the friction tester and sliders; Annex E (informative) Precision; Bibliography.  ID: 67

PVC Geomembrane Fabrication and Installation Specification
09/06/2006
After more than two years of intensive revision by the PVC Geomembrane Institute (PGI), the Fabrication and Installation Specification for PVC Geomembranes is complete. The specification addresses the relevant topics for fabrication and installation of PVC geomembranes including: submittals, qualifications, geomembrane packaging and shipping, on-site placement conditions, factory and field seaming, geomembrane warranty, field quality control, anchor trench construction and backfilling, and safely covering the geomembrane. Some of the issues specifically addressed during the revision process include air channel testing of field seams, new ASTM material specification for PVC geomembranes, and destructive field seam testing. The Specification is designed for specifiers and designers to use directly in project-specific documents or for simply attaching to project-specific documents. The new Fabrication and Installation Specification for PVC Geomembranes can be accessed by clicking the link below.  ID: 60

GRI-GCL3 Standard Specification for Test Methods, Required Properties, and Testing Frequencies of Geosynthetic Clay Liners ( GCLs )
06/13/2005
This specification was developed by the Geosynthetic Research Institute (GRI), with the cooperation of the member organizations for general use by the public. It is completely optional in this regard and can be superseded by other existing or new specifications on the subject matter in whole or in part. Neither GRI, the Geosynthetic Institute, nor any of its related institutes, warrant or indemnifies any materials produced according to this specification either at this time or in the future. 1. Scope 1.1 This specification covers the manufacturing quality control (MQC) of geosynthetic clay liners (GCLs), describing types of tests, the proper test methods, minimum and sometimes maximum values, and the minimum testing frequencies. Note 1: Geosynthetic Clay Liners (GCLs) are also called Clay Geosynthetics Barriers (GBR-Cs). 1.2 There are two general categories of GCLs covered in this specification: reinforced and nonreinforced. Within each category there are geotextile, polymer coated geotextiles, and geomembrane/geofilm related types. 1.3 This specification is intended to aid manufacturers, suppliers, purchasers and users of GCLs in establishing an acceptable level of effort for manufacturing quality control. 1.4 This specification does not address manufacturing quality assurance (MQA), product acceptance testing, or conformance testing. These are independent activities taken by organizations other than the GCL manufacturer. 1.5 The values stated in SI (metric) units are to be regarded as the standard. The U.S. (English) units are calculated values using a “soft” conversion accuracy. 1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.  ID: 59
