GRI GM13 ASTM D792 & D1505 Density of HDPE Geomembranes 

This video describes ASTM D792 “Standard Test Method for Specific Gravity (Relative Density) and Density of Plastics by Displacement,” and ASTM D1505 “Standard Test Method for Density of Plastics by the Density-Gradient Technique,” as they apply to GRI GM13: Standard Specification for “Test Methods, Test Properties and Testing Frequency for High Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Smooth and Textured Geomembranes.” This specification was developed by the Geosynthetic Research Institute (GRI) under the auspices of the Geosynthetic Institute (GSI), with the cooperation of the member organizations for general use by the public.

GSI constitutes a diverse assembly of stakeholders who actively engage in the manufacturing, design and use of geosynthetics as engineering materials. GSI’s mission is to develop and transfer knowledge, assess and critique geosynthetics, and provide service to its member organizations. One of the major objectives of the institute is to develop and implement generic specifications of geosynthetics used in Civil Engineering applications all over the world.
