4.3.12 Comparison <strong>of</strong> 1995 and 2010 Test Results. Table 4-21 provides a tabulated comparison <strong>of</strong><br />

the 1995 and 2010 test results for the Denver 48-<strong>in</strong>. l<strong>in</strong>er. In compar<strong>in</strong>g the results, it should be known<br />

that the 1995 sample was retrieved only from the upstream side <strong>of</strong> the manhole (a separate <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />

from the downstream with a different l<strong>in</strong>er thickness). A summary <strong>of</strong> the comb<strong>in</strong>ed results for all four<br />

sites evaluated is given <strong>in</strong> Section 6 where the significance <strong>of</strong> the various results is explored.<br />

The average thickness (14.2 mm) <strong>of</strong> the TTC-tested upstream sample (taken from the crown area <strong>of</strong> the<br />

l<strong>in</strong>er) was less than the l<strong>in</strong>er thickness specified for this l<strong>in</strong>er (18 mm). The specific gravity <strong>of</strong> both the<br />

upstream and downstream l<strong>in</strong>ers as measured by TTC accord<strong>in</strong>g to ASTM D792 (1.07 and 1.08,<br />

respectively) were lower than the results reported <strong>in</strong> the mercury penetrometer test<strong>in</strong>g (1.16) and lower<br />

than the results reported by Insituform from its test<strong>in</strong>g (1.19).<br />

All <strong>of</strong> the Denver 48-<strong>in</strong>. l<strong>in</strong>er samples exceed the specified flexural strength for the l<strong>in</strong>er and all <strong>of</strong> the<br />

samples, except for one set <strong>of</strong> tests on the TTC-tested upstream sample, exceed the specified flexural<br />

modulus for the l<strong>in</strong>er. The average flexural modulus value measured for the <strong>in</strong>itial set <strong>of</strong> coupons from<br />

the TTC-tested upstream sample (182,622 psi) is much lower than any <strong>of</strong> the other flexural modulus<br />

values reported <strong>in</strong> this study. The correlation <strong>of</strong> low values <strong>of</strong> flexural modulus with other l<strong>in</strong>er<br />

properties such as tensile elongation at break, tensile strength, specific gravity, and porosity is explored <strong>in</strong><br />

Section 6. Whether lower than specified values can be attributed to l<strong>in</strong>er ag<strong>in</strong>g, to orig<strong>in</strong>al <strong>in</strong>stallation<br />

issues, or to test<strong>in</strong>g variability is also discussed <strong>in</strong> Section 6.<br />
