Historical Standard: ASTM D5262-02a Standard Test Method for Evaluating the Unconfined Tension Creep Behavior of Geosynthetics
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D5262
1. Scope
1.1 This test method is intended for use in determining the unconfined tension creep behavior of geosynthetics at constant temperature when subjected to a sustained tensile loading. This test method is applicable to all geosynthetics.
1.2 The test method measures total elongation of the geosynthetic test specimen, from the time of loading, while being maintained at a constant temperature. It includes procedures for measuring the tension creep behavior at constant temperature of conditioned geosynthetics as well as directions for calculating tension creep curves.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 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.
