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 of 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 www .iso .org/
iso/ foreword .html.This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 221, Geosynthetics, in collaboration with
the European Committee for Standardization (CEN) Technical Committee CEN/TC 189, Geosynthetics,
in accordance with the Agreement on technical cooperation between ISO and CEN (Vienna Agreement).
This first edition of ISO 12958-1, together with ISO 12958-2, cancels and replaces ISO 12958:2010,
which has been technically revised.The main changes to ISO 12958:2010 are as follows:
— introduction of the concept of index versus performance test;
— permission given to test using rigid/rigid, soft/soft or soft/rigid boundaries;
— addition of guidance for testing cuspated sheets on a single side and for testing multilinear drainage
geocomposites;— withdrawal of apparatus types b) and c);
— several cosmetic improvements, in particular terms and definitions, procedure, calculation and
reporting.A list of all parts in the ISO 12958 series can be found on the ISO website.

in-plane water flow capacity
p index(σ/i)
volumetric flow rate of water per unit width of specimen at a defined normal compressive stress (σ),
hydraulic gradient (i), measured in the present index test and expressed in litres per second per meter
[(l/s)/m]Note 1 to entry: The term 'transmissivity' is related to laminar flow conditions only and equals the water flow
capacity at a hydraulic gradient equal to unity. As non-laminar flow may occur, the term 'water flow capacity' is
preferred.3.4
hydraulic gradient
ratio of the head loss in the geotextile or geotextile-related product specimen to the distance between
two measuring points within the geotextile or geotextile-related productNote 1 to entry: ISO/TR 18228-4 provides information on the significance of the hydraulic gradient.
3.5contact surface
surface contacting the specimen
Note 1 to entry: Contact surfaces may be either closed-cell foam rubber on both sides (F/F), smooth rigid
membrane on one side and closed-cell foam rubber on the other side (R/F) or smooth rigid membrane on both
sides (R/R).3.6
in-plane water flow index test
test that yields an indication of the in-plane water flow
3.7
in-plane water flow performance test
test to confirm full compliance of the in-plane water flow with the requirements under specified
conditions4 Principle
The flow of water within the plane of a geotextile or geotextile-related product is measured under
varying normal compressive stresses, with typical hydraulic gradients and with defined contact
surfaces.5 Apparatus and materials
5.1 Constant-head in-plane water flow apparatus, as follows:
a) The apparatus shall be capable of maintaining a constant head loss at different water levels, at least
those corresponding to hydraulic gradients of 0,1 and 1,0, while maintaining a water head at the
point of discharge not greater than 100 mm.b) If the average water head above the specimen exceeds 100 mm, and the applied normal load is
equal to or less than 20 kPa, the normal stress shall be corrected for the excess considering the
average water head.c) The apparatus shall be capable of maintaining the proposed normal compressive stress on the
specimen without any deformation which would influence the test results.1) Under preparation. Stage at the time of publication: ISO/CD TR 18228-4:2020.

d) The apparatus shall include a loading mechanism capable of exerting a constant normal compressive
stress on the geotextile or geotextile-related product specimen to a maximum permissible error
of ± 5 % of applied normal compressive stress.e) The surfaces contacting the specimen should be either:
— foam rubber (F) whose properties should satisfy the compression deflection envelope,
illustrated in Figure 1, when tested in accordance with ISO 9863-1; or— smooth rigid (R) high-density polyethylene liner 2 mm thick without any surface damage.
