Permeability of Bound Granular Covers
The penetration of fluids or ions in or through separation layers can be characterized as a durability problem. The processes usually last long compared to human memory, transport processes are important and the damage is gradual but hard to reverse. The problems are increasingly important because of the ever increasing scale of the built environment. In this article this wide scope is limited to a theoretical formulation of the topics mentioned and a description of a test method on bitumen bound granular materials in layers of approximately 40 mm under small fluid pressures. These cases are especially relevant for floors as protection against soil pollution or as protection of the concrete structure below a pavement. Discussed will be the physical modeling of the mentioned processes, the propagated test method and some considerations on structural application.
