Geosynthetics — Determination of dynamic perforation (cone drop test)

This document specifies a method to determine the resistance of geosynthetics to dynamic penetration by a steel cone dropped from a fixed height.

The method is generally applicable to geosynthetics. However, the applicability of this test for some types of products (such as e.g. GGR,GCE, GST,GBR) should be considered carefully .
