ISO 17892-11 Geotechnical Investigation and Tests - Standard Test for Permeability

The tests were not previously standardized internationally. This document is intended to present a broad range of good practice and significant differences with national documents are not expected. It is based on international practice.

The permeability test is performed on a cylindrical test specimen that is laterally sealed by a rigid container or a flexible membrane. The sample is subjected to differential hydraulic load and the water flow is measured under a constant or falling load. The results are used to determine the permeability coefficient of the soil sample. Tests can be performed on intact, remolded, compacted or reconstituted samples.

Permeability tests provide information about the structural properties of the soil and are an important tool for the design of structures that interact with the soil. These tests are used in various fields such as geotechnical engineering and agriculture.
