Historical Standard: ASTM D5323-92(2006) Standard Practice for Determination of 2 % Secant Modulus for Polyethylene Geomembranes
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM D5323
1. Scope
D
1.1 This practice presents a technique for calculating the 2 % secant modulus for polyethylene geomembranes between 0.5 and 5 mm (20 and 200 mil) using Test Method D 638.
1.2 This practice will facilitate modulus comparisons of similar materials by standardizing the method for deriving the points on the stress-strain curve from which the calculations are performed.
1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The values given in parentheses are for information only.
1.4 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
