This European standard specifies the determination of the puncture resistance by measuring the force required to push a flat ended plunger through geotextiles and geotextile-related products. The test is normally carried out and dry specimens conditioned in the specified atmosphere. Alternatively, on request, the test can be carried out on wet specimens. The test is applicable to most types of products, but not to materials with apertures greater than 10 mm.
