Laboratory Test Methods
Rigid wall test
AASHTO T215; ASTM D 2434
Typically for sandy & granular soils (k >
10-3 cm/s)
Not recommended for low permeability
soils (k < 10-6 cm/s)
Device designed to
use a 6-in section

Double Ring Permeameter
A standard 4 in compaction
mold
A stainless steel sleeve in
the base divides the sample
into two equal portions,
allowing measurement of the
permeant flow from the
center and perimeter of the
sample concurrently
Flow is monitored with two
5 ml pipettes

Pump Test
A pump test indicates that the field permeability
k = 9.2 x 10-4 cm/sec and the radius of influence
R = 2200ft. The new solutions based on the pump
