Introduction

Background and framework of standard revision

This regulation is a comprehensive upgrade of the 1993 Ministry of Metallurgy standard, with new chapters corresponding to modern testing equipment such as thermal conductivity tester and triaxial bed coefficient tester. The main technological evolutions include:

Technical dimensions 1993 edition 2016 edition Update range
Types of test methods Chapter 40 Chapter 47 +17.5%
Instrument requirements Traditional mechanical DigitalAutomatic acquisition system Comprehensive upgrade
Special soil treatment Category 3 Category 5(including saline soil) +66.7%

Analysis of core test methods

1. Key points of new test technology

The thermal conductivity test adopts the surface heat source method and the transient hot wire method, which is suitable for soil thermal property testing in ground source heat pump projects, and requires a temperature control accuracy of ±0.5℃.

2. Comparison of improved test methods

Consolidation testAdded the process of determining the rebound modulus:

  1. Maintain the preload for 24 hours
  2. Unload step by step to the initial pressure
  3. Record the reading of the displacement sensor

Implementation suggestions and precautions

1. Special soil sample treatment

For saline soil samples, salt washing pretreatment is required:

  • When the Cl- content is greater than 0.3%, rinse with distilled water
  • When the SO42- content is high, vacuum filtration is required

2. Instrument calibration requirements

All dynamometers should be calibrated according to Appendix H, with non-linear error ≤1%FS. It is recommended to calibrate once every 3 months.
