58 Annex A (informative) Simple permeameter test
A.1 Principle
A.2 Test equipment
A.2.1 Metal or plastic ring, having inside diameter minimum 290 mm and height minimum 30 mm.
A.2.2 Mastic sealant, rapid setting mortar or another method of making a watertight seal between the ring to the surface of the base to be tested.
A.2.3 Circular template or stencil, having outside diameter equal to the inside diameter of the ring.
A.2.4 Test liquid, consisting of clean water.
A.2.5 Stopwatch.
A.3 Test procedure
A.3.1 Place the circular template or stencil on the surface of the base to be tested.
A.3.2 Apply the sealant or mortar to the surface of the base, around the perimeter of the stencil, to a width of at least 10 mm.
A.3.3 Remove the stencil.
A.3.4 Press the metal or plastic ring into the sealant so that a watertight seal is achieved.
A.3.5 If the materials used to form a seal require a period of time to cure, allow this time to elapse before proceeding further with the test.
A.3.6 Make a mark on the inner wall of the ring, 30 mm above the surface of the base.
A.3.7 Pour sufficient clean water into the ring to thoroughly wet the surface, typically not less than 2 l.
A.3.8 After approximately 60 s, add clean water, up to the level of the 30 mm mark.
A.3.9 Using the stopwatch, measure the time taken until all water has drained through the surface of the base.
