1、Standard Method of Test for Soil Suction AASHTO Designation: T 273-86 (2013) American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials 444 North Capitol Street N.W., Suite 249 Washington, D.C. 20001 TS-1a T 273-1 AASHTO Standard Method of Test for Soil Suction AASHTO Designation: T 273-86 (

2、2013) 1. SCOPE 1.1. This method covers the procedure for determining total soil suction force using thermocouple psychrometers. The test results of this method are to be used in conjunction with T 258. 1.2. The thermocouple psychrometer measures the relative humidity in the soil by a technique calle

3、d Peltier cooling. By causing a small direct current of approximately four to eight milliamperes to flow through the thermocouple junction for approximately 15 s in the correct direction, this junction will cool and water will condense on it when the dewpoint temperature is reached. Condensation of

4、this water inhibits further cooling of the junction and the voltage difference developed between the thermocouple and the reference junctions can be measured using a microvoltmeter. With proper calibration, the thermocouple psychrometer output in microvolts can be converted directly to soil suction

5、in convenient units of pressure. Typical thermocouple psychrometer output voltages vary from less than one microvolt for relative humidities close to 100 percent or total soil suction less than 95.76 kPa (1 tsf) to about 25 microvolts for relative humidities of about 95 percent or total soil suction

6、s of about 5746 kPa (60 tsf). 1.3. The following applies to all specified limits in this standard: For the purposes of determining conformance with these specifications, an observed value or a calculated value shall be rounded off “to the nearest unit” in the last right-hand place of figures used in

Soil suction, expressed in units of pressure, is a measure of the pulling force exerted on water by the soil mass. 3.1.4. total soil suctiontotal soil suction, as determined by this method of test, is the force responsible for soil water retention and is the sum of t

22、5.4. The electrical connectors are affixed to the psychrometer wires for easy connection to the switch box. 5.5. The switches are wired so the output voltages (temperature and soil suction) can be monitored on each of the psychrometers in turn. 5.6. The rubber stoppers are placed in the metal sample

23、 containers, which are placed in the thermal containers to minimize temperature variations. The temperature inside the thermal container is monitored by a thermometer placed through the container cover. 5.7. The equipment should be kept in a room where ambient temperature variations are minimal. 6.

24、CALIBRATION OF EQUIPMENT 6.1. Place a small piece of filter paper (type and grade variable) in the bottom of each sample container along with 3 mL of the calibration standard. A minimum of three calibration standard concentrations should be used to adequately define the calibration line (i.e., 290,

25、1000, and 1800 mOs/kg). 6.2. Seal the sample containers, containing the standards, with the rubber stopper psychrometers installed and place them in the thermal containers. Allow the temperature to come to equilibrium, which requires approximately 24 h. 6.3. After the temperature has come to equilib

26、rium, begin taking temperature (millivolt) and soil suction (microvolt) output readings at least three times per day until the output readings stabilize. A cooling current of 8 mA is applied to the psychrometer for 15 s prior to reading the soil suction output reading. Time to stabilization varies w

27、ith concentrations of the calibration standard but will generally be in the range of 7 to 10 days. 6.4. Obtain at least three stable output readings on each standard. Perform the following calculations on the average of the three readings. 6.4.1. Convert the thermocouple voltage output (millivolts)

28、to temperature (C), using the equation in Section 9.1. 6.4.2. Convert the psychrometer (soil suction) voltage output, ET(microvolts) to the equivalent output at the calibration temperature of 25C, E25, using the equation in Section 9.2. 6.4.3. Calculate the equivalent moisture retention force or suc

29、tion according to one of the following: SI Units: Multiply each concentration by 2.509 (i.e., 1800 mOs/kg 2.509 = 4516 kPa). U.S. Customary Units: Multiply each concentration by 2.62 102(i.e., 1800 mOs/kg 0.0262 = 47.2 tsf). 6.5. Plot the calibration curve for each psychrometer using E25(microvolts)

30、 as the abscissa and the soil suction, , kPa (tsf), for each calibration standard as the ordinate. Typical thermocouple psychrometer calibration curves (Figure 3) are linear and can be expressed using the following equation: ( )25soil suction, , kPa or tsf ,mE n= (1) where: m = slope of the calibrat

Duplication is a violation of applicable law.TS-1a T 273-5 AASHTO The slope of the calibration curve will always be positive and the y-intercep

32、t should be equal to or less than zero. The calibration curve is good for the useful life of the thermocouple psychrometer; however, under normal use, an annual check of the calibration by at least one point will assure that the equipment is operating properly.

Place two of the specimens directly into the metal sample containers, seal with the rubber stoppers containing the thermocou

35、ple psychrometers, and place in the thermal containers. These two specimens represent the natural conditions of the soil. 8.4. The remaining seven specimens, depending on their natural water contents, are either wetted with varying amounts of distilled water or dried at room temperature for varying

36、lengths of time to establish a range of water content conditions. For example, consider a soil that appears relatively dry (i.e., well below the plastic limit): To establish the necessary water content range, three of the specimens should be dried at room temperature (i.e., 1, 2, and 4 h, respective

37、ly, would be reasonable times) and the remaining four specimens should be wetted with distilled water (i.e., 0.5, 1, 2, and 4 mL, respectively, would be reasonable amounts). 8.4.1. Place the specimen to be wetted into the metal sample containers; add varying amounts of water to the specimens as desc

38、ribed above. Immediately seal the wetted specimens with the rubber stoppers containing the thermocouple psychrometers and place them in the thermal containers. 8.4.2. Allow the remaining specimens to dry at room temperature for varying lengths of time as described above. Place each dried specimen in

39、to the metal sample container and seal with a rubber stopper containing a thermocouple psychrometer and place in the thermal container. 8.5. Allow the specimens to come to equilibrium in the sealed containers. Temperature equilibrium is attained within a few hours after placing the cover of the ther

40、mal container. Equilibrium of the relative humidity of the air measured by the psychrometer and the relative humidity in the soil specimen is usually obtained within 48 to 72 h. 8.6. Using the appropriate switch, read and record the temperature output of the thermocouple psychrometer in millivolts.

41、8.7. Change the switch from thermocouple to psychrometer, set the meter to zero, apply a cooling current of approximately 8 mA for 15 s, then read and record the psychrometer output in microvolts. The cooling currents and times should be identical to those used to determine the calibration curves. 8

42、.8. Repeat Sections 8.6 and 8.7 for each of the thermocouple psychrometers in the equipment setup. 8.9. After the readings are completed, remove the specimens from the containers. Determine the dry density (volume displacement method) and the water content of each specimen in accordance with T 233.
