The material will be sampled at the site by the QA/QC <br />Inspectors or at the manufacturing plant by an independent third party under the direction of the <br />QA/QC Consultant. <br /> <br />As a minimum, the following shall be established for the Geocomposite: <br /> <br />Geonet Core (measurements shall be taken on the edge of the sample where geotextile <br />and geonet are unbonded): <br /> <br />• Thickness (ASTM D5199) <br /> Geocomposite: <br /> <br />• Peel Strength (ASTM D7005) <br />• Index Transmissivity (ASTM D4716) <br /> <br />Direct Shear Testing (ASTM D5321). The QA/QC Consultant shall perform a direct shear test <br />(minimum one test per project or material type) between the project specific GCL, single-sided <br />textured HDPE geomembrane (textured side towards GCL), and geocomposite drainage net per <br />ASTM D5321 and as described in the Specifications. <br /> <br />The QA/QC Manager will review all acceptance test results and report any non-conformance to the <br />Construction Manager and Contractor. <br /> <br />Sampling Procedures. Samples will be taken across the entire width of the roll. Unless otherwise <br />specified, samples will be 3 ft (1 m) long by the roll width. The QA/QC Consultant will mark the <br />machine direction on the samples with an arrow. <br /> <br />Test Results. The QA/QC Consultant will examine all results from laboratory acceptance testing <br />and will report any nonconformance to the Construction Manager. <br /> <br />Acceptance Test Failure. If a Geocomposite acceptance sample does not comply with the minimum <br />requirements of the Specifications, the Geocomposite roll from which the sample was taken will be <br />failed by the QA/QC Consultant, and replaced by the Geocomposite Manufacturer at no additional <br />cost to the Owner. The Design Engineer shall be contacted to determine additional acceptance <br />testing requirements. <br /> <br /> <br />
