Sentences with phrase «media density»

The maximum media density measured in this procedure approaches the density at the theoretical saturation point.

5.4 The value of this test method to the green roof designer is that it provides an objective measure of maximum probable media density (under drained conditions) for estimating structural loads.

1.3 The maximum media density and associated moisture content measured in this procedure applies to drained conditions near the saturation point.

E2399 Test Method for Maximum Media Density for Dead Load Analysis of Vegetative (Green) Roof Systems

This procedure is intended to provide a reproducible laboratory procedure for predicting the maximum media density, moisture content, air - filled porosity, and water permeability under conditions that more closely replicate field conditions on green roofs.

The method also provides a measure of the moisture content, the air - filled porosity, and the water permeability measured at the maximum media density.

1.1 This test method covers a procedure for determining the maximum media density for purposes of estimating the maximum dead load for green roof assemblies.
