Results of Permeability Testing Rocky Mountain Arsenal

Abstract

In August 1978, long-term permeability testing of soils and basin F fluid from Rocky Mountain Arsenal was undertaken by D'Appolonia. It was the purpose of the test program to measure, as a function of time, the permeability of cement-bentonite and various soil-bentonite mixes when acted upon the basin F fluid as permanent. Initial testing was conducted for a 100-day period and was completed in december 1978. This work was performed for the Waterways experiment station as contract DACW39-78-M-3705 see RIC 81266R43: results of long-term permeability testing, Rocky Mountain Arsenal, December 1978. Continued testing of some of the initial samples and preparation of new samples was conducted for USATHAMA as contract DAAK11-79-M-0003. The second phase of testing was terminated in June 1980. This report presents the complete test results for the samples tested through June 1980
