1、Designation: D 4354 99 (Reapproved 2009)Standard Practice forSampling of Geosynthetics for Testing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D 4354; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisio
2、n. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This practice covers three procedures for the samplingof geosynthetics for testing. This practice requires that instruc-tions on t
3、aking laboratory samples and test specimens be partof every test method for geosynthetics.1.1.1 The first procedure describes the sampling of produc-tion units for the purpose of manufacturers quality control(MQC) (Table 1).1.1.2 The second procedure describes the sampling ofproduction units for the
4、 purpose of manufacturers qualityassurance (MQA) testing during the manufacturing process.This requires that backup statistical process control records bemaintained during the manufacturing process (Table 2).1.1.3 The third procedure describes the division of ship-ments of geosynthetics into lots an
5、d the determination of lotsample size for purchasers specification conformance testing(Table 3).1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health p

24、mended. For example, aproduction run may be 6000 m2. For the purpose of sampling,if 1000 m2criteria is used, this would be 6 production units.3.2.1.2 DiscussionFor the purpose of this practice, thepurchaser is considered to be the project owner, while the selleris the entity supplying the geosynthet
25、ic to the project owner.4. Summary of Practice4.1 Instructions are given within this practice for dividingshipments or consignments of geosynthetics into lots and forthe determination of the number of production units in a lotsample.4.2 The number or method for determination of the numberof specimen
26、s to be tested from the laboratory sample iscontained in the specific geosynthetic property test method.5. Significance and Use5.1 This practice provides a means by which samples ofgeosynthetics may be selected to provide a statistically validsample for the selection of test specimens without previo
27、usknowledge of the variability that may exist between productionunits.5.2 The principles stated in Practice D 4271, and the illus-trative text in that practice can be used by test method authorsin preparing sampling statements.5.3 This practice gives three procedures for sampling: onefor manufacture
28、rs quality control (MQC), one for manufac-turers quality assurance (MQA) testing, and a third forpurchasers specification conformance testing. For this reason,test methods containing a section on sampling that requires theuse of this practice should contain a statement in the section onreporting sim

When it isrequired to provide certification to a purchaser as to qualityassurance, the MQA testing is to be done by an external MQAtesting facility.6.

Maintain information on the number of such tests per lotand supply the information to the purchaser upon request.6.2.3 If sampling is r

It is usually done as the geosynthetics arebrought to the project site and justify the payment of the billing.8.1 Division into LotsConsider as a separate l

If portions that are billed or designated as separate lots areshipped from different production plants, treat each separatelyshipped portion as a separate lot.
40、 When sampling is requiredduring manufacturing, consider a lot to be the planned produc-tion quantity.8.2 Determination of Lot Sample Size:8.2.1 Take for the lot sample, production units, as directedin an applicable material specification, or as agreed upon by thepurchaser and the seller. Consider t
41、he applicable units ofproduction to be the primary sampling units.8.2.2 In the absence of a material specification or otheragreement use Table 3 to determine the lot sample size forspecification conformance testing.8.2.3 If the specification requires sampling during manufac-ture, select the units fo
42、r the lot sample at uniformly spaced timeintervals throughout the production period.8.2.4 For properties that are evaluated as attributes, the unitsin the lot sample serve as both laboratory samples and testspecimens.9.
