Geosynthetics - Determination of friction characteristics - Part 1: Direct shear test (ISO 12957-1:2018)

This document specifies an index test method to determine the friction characteristics of geosynthetics
in contact with a standard sand as described in EN 196-1, i.e. with a specified density and moisture
content, under a normal stress and at a constant rate of displacement, using a direct shear apparatus.
The same testing procedure can be used with any type of soil with the density and moisture content
that are required to evaluate the performance under specific conditions or with another geosynthetic
under a normal stress and at a constant rate of displacement, using a direct shear apparatus.
The procedure can also be used for testing geosynthetic barriers.

Geokunststoffe - Bestimmung der Reibungseigenschaften - Teil 1: Scherkastenversuch (ISO 12957-1:2018)

Dieses Dokument legt ein Index-Prüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der Reibungseigenschaften von Geokunstoffen in Kontakt mit einem Normsand, wie in EN 196 1 beschrieben, fest, d. h. bei festgelegter Dichte und festgelegtem Feuchtegehalt, unter Normalspannung und bei konstanter Vorschub-geschwindigkeit in einem direkten Schergerät.
Das gleiche Prüfverfahren kann mit einer beliebigen Bodenart mit der Dichte und dem Feuchtegehalt, die für die Beurteilung des Leistungsverhaltens unter bestimmten Bedingungen erforderlich sind, oder mit einem anderen Geokunststoff unter Normalspannung und bei konstanter Vorschubgeschwindigkeit in einem direkten Schergerät angewendet werden.
Das Verfahren kann auch für Prüfungen von geosynthetischen Dichtungsbahnen verwendet werden.

Géosynthétiques - Détermination des caractéristiques de frottement - Partie 1: Essai de cisaillement direct (ISO 12957-1:2018)

Le présent document décrit une méthode de détermination des caractéristiques en frottement des géosynthétiques en contact avec un sable normalisé comme décrit dans l'EN 196‑1, par exemple à une masse volumique et une teneur en eau spécifiques, sous l'effet d'une contrainte normale et à une vitesse de déplacement constante, en utilisant un dispositif de cisaillement direct.
Cette même procédure d'essai peut être utilisée avec n'importe quel type de sol, de masse volumique et de teneur en eau connues, afin d'évaluer les performances dans ces conditions spécifiques ou avec un autre géosynthétique, sous l'effet d'une contrainte normale et à une vitesse de déplacement constante, en utilisant un appareillage de cisaillement direct.
Le mode opératoire peut également être utilisé pour les essais sur les géosynthétiques d'étanchéité.

Geosintetika - Ugotavljanje tornih značilnosti - 1. del: Neposredni strižni preskus (ISO 12957-1:2018)

Ta dokument določa metodo preskušanja indeksa za ugotavljanje tornih značilnosti geosintetike v stiku s standardnim peskom, kot je opisano v standardu EN 196-1, tj. z določeno gostoto in vsebnostjo vlage pri običajni obremenitvi in konstantni strižni deformaciji z uporabo aparata za neposredni strižni preskus. Enak preskusni postopek je mogoče uporabiti pri vseh vrstah prsti z gostoto in vsebnostjo vlage, ki sta potrebni za oceno zmogljivosti pod določenimi pogoji ali z drugo geosintetiko pri normalni obremenitvi in konstantni strižni deformaciji z uporabo aparata za neposredni strižni preskus.
Postopek je mogoče uporabiti tudi za preskušanje geosintetičnih zapor.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation on the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO's adherence to the
World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following
URL: www .iso .org/iso/foreword .html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 221, Geosynthetics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 12957-1:2005), which has been technically
revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— introduction of the possibility to test the shear between two geosynthetics;
— introduction of the possibility to test soil different from the standard sand.
A list of all parts in the ISO 12957 series can be found on the ISO website.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A
complete listing of these bodies can be found at www .iso .org/members .html.

This document specifies an index test method to determine the friction characteristics of geosynthetics
in contact with a standard sand as described in EN 196-1, i.e. with a specified density and moisture
content, under a normal stress and at a constant rate of displacement, using a direct shear apparatus.
The same testing procedure can be used with any type of soil with the density and moisture content
that are required to evaluate the performance under specific conditions or with another geosynthetic

The procedure can also be used for testing geosynthetic barriers.
