Notes
By its nature, this test is non-standard and the client will need to ascertain for themselves the suitability for their purposes of the specification provided, and the acceptability of that specification by their client.

It is our experience that in the majority of cases, the British Standard Triaxial Permeability test does not take significantly longer than an accelerated method (see notes on the triaxial permeability section), and it has the benefit of being a nationally accepted method.
