SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D6918
1. Scope
1.1 This test method is a performance test, which measures the effect crimping, has on the ability of vertical strip drains to transmit water parallel to the plane of the drain.
1.2 This test method is applicable to all vertical strip drains.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard.
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.
