The "gap" between shear boxes was set at 80 mil (2.0 mm) <br />2. The test specimens were flooded during testing unless otherwise noted. <br />3. High Normal Stresses, >5psi (35 kPa) was applied using air pressure. <br />4. Low Normal Stresses, <5psi (35 kPa) was applied using dead weights. <br />5. The tests were terminated after 3.0"(75 mm) of displacement unless otherwise noted. <br />6. Tests were performed in general accordance with ASTM procedure D-5321 using a Brainard-Kiliman LG -112 direct shear machine <br />with an effective area of 12" x 12" (300 x300 mm). <br />TEST ORIENTATION: 11 NnRMAI sroecc 11 <br />TOP BOX WITH BOARD SPACERS-• SOIL <br />BOTTOM Box W! RIGID SUBSTRATE �— GEOMEMBRANE <br />Asperity Height: 0.024 in. <br />SPECIAL TEST NOTES: <br />1. Each specimen of geomembrane was cut to 14" x 20" and clamped to the lower shear box. <br />2. The test soil was placed in the upper shear box to the specified dry density and water content. <br />3. Each test specimen was consolidated for 24 hrs. at the specified normal stress, then sheared. <br />4. The test was performed in a "wet" or "flooded" condition. <br />5. Shearing occurred at the interface of the soil and geomembrane specimens. <br />6. The Friction Angle and Adhesion (or Cohesion) results given here are based on a mathematically determined best fit line. <br />7. Further interpretation should be conducted by a qualified professional experienced in geosynthetic and geotechnical engineering. <br />i nese results apply only to the above listed samples / materials.
