About This Item
ASTM C1701/C1701M is the ASTM standard for measuring the infiltration rate of in place pervious concrete, making it a useful reference for evaluating how well an installed surface allows water to pass through. As a technical document, it supports performance assessment, field testing, and quality control for projects where stormwater movement through pervious concrete matters. For buyers and specifiers, it helps align testing practices with a recognized method for comparing site conditions and documenting results.
Overview of ASTM C1701/C1701M
This standard provides a test method focused on infiltration rate in pervious concrete that is already installed in the field. ASTM C1701/C1701M is commonly used when a project needs a consistent way to measure how quickly water enters the surface and to support performance verification. Because it addresses in place material, it is especially relevant for evaluating real-world installation conditions rather than laboratory-only samples.
Common use cases of ASTM C1701/C1701M
ASTM C1701/C1701M is commonly used on pervious concrete pavements where infiltration performance is part of the design intent. It may support acceptance testing, periodic inspection, maintenance checks, or troubleshooting when a surface appears to be losing permeability. The standard is also useful for contractors, engineers, and owners who need a repeatable field method to document site performance and compare results over time.
Benefits of using ASTM C1701/C1701M
Using ASTM C1701/C1701M helps promote consistency in field testing and supports more reliable documentation of pervious concrete performance. It can aid compliance efforts by giving stakeholders a recognized method for measuring infiltration rate in place. That is valuable for procurement, quality control, and project closeout, where objective test results may reduce uncertainty and help confirm whether the installed surface is performing as expected.
