Notes:

1. Transmissivity measured using water at 21  2°C (70 ± 4°F) with a gradient of 0.1 and a confining pressure of 10000 psf between steel plates after 15 minutes. Values may vary between individual labs.

2. MARV is statistically defined as mean minus two standard deviations and it is the value which is exceeded by 97.5% of all the test data.

3. Condition 190/2.16
