IMPACT TEST

ANSI Z97.1-2004

for Fabric Mesh Laminated Glass

Certification:

ANSI Z97.1 Safety Glazing Materials Used in Buildings - Safety Performance Specifications and Methods of Test - Impact Test

Standard:

ANSI Z97.1-2004 Standard was developed under procedures accredited as meeting the criteria for American National Standards

Tested Material:

Fabric Mesh Laminated Glass

Process:

testing method comprises both hammer and axe (weight 2kg) strikes on the 400 mm x 400 mm square area of a vertically positioned glass with the size 1,100 x 900 mm. At least 12 hammer strikes are used to destroy the testing glass first and then the following axe cutting strikes are tried to make an opening. The axe test is passed if the square opening (400 mm x 400 mm) is not formed and completely detached from the rest of the test sheet. Finally the number of strikes are counted and classified as P6B to P8B which denote their resistant ability to penetrate the glass.

Result:

Type 1 = no tear or shear or opening develops within the vertical specimen through with a 3.0 in diameter sphere can pass;

Type 2 = "the 10 largest crack-free particles shall be selected and weighed… the average thickness will be used to determine the maximum allowable weight";

Type 3 = "the stiffness and hardness of the specimen shall be determined"; for

Type 4 = No breakage occurs.

The interpretation of results for center punch fragmentation is "the total of the 10 largest crack-free pieces shall weigh no more than the equivalent weight of 10 square inches of the original test sample.

for Fabric Mesh Laminated Tempered Glass

Certification:

BS 6206:1981 Specification for Impact Performance Requirements for the Flat Safety Glass and Safety Plastics for use in Buildings

Standard:

BS 6206:1981 Standard was developed under procedures accredited as meeting the criteria for British Standards Institution

Tested Material:

Fabric Mesh Laminated Tempered Glass

Process:

  1. Immediately preceding the test, condition the test piece as described above. Place the test piece in the frame and clamp it so that the chloroprene strips are compressed by no more than 10% to 15% of their original thickness. When the impactor is hanging at rest, suspended from the overhead support, check that it is, at its greatest diameter, not more than 13mm from the surface of the test piece and within 51mm radially from the centre of the test piece.

  2. Raise the impactor to a drop height of 305mm and steady it.

  3. Release the impactor so that it swings in a pendulum arc and strikes the piece.

  4. Inspect the test piece after impact and report whether: 

    • It has remained unbroken. 

    • It has broken safely in accordance with the requirements of 6.2. 

    • It has broken and failed to comply with the requirements of 6.2.

  5. If any test piece fails to comply with the requirements of 6.2, terminate the procedure. If all four test pieces either do not break or break safely and if it is required to test the material to a higher impact level, increase the drop height to 457mm and repeat the test on four more test pieces of the same material or test pieces which have undergone the previous tests and remained unbroken.

  6. Repeat the same procedure for drop height of 1219mm.

Result:

Class A: Complied

Class B: Complied

Class C: Complied

Tested Material:

Fabric Mesh Laminated Tempered Glass

Process:

  1. For categories P1A, P2A, P3A and P4A, the impactor shall be dropped on to each test piece three times from the same height, in such a way the impact positions form a pattern of an equilateral triangle with a side length of (130±20)mm around the geometric centre of the test piece, with on side of the triangle parallel to a short side of the specimen. The impact position opposite to this side of the triangle shall be hit first.

  2. For category P5A, The above procedure shall be repeated a total of three times on teach test piece, giving nine impacts, three on each point of the triangle.

  3. Loose fragments shall be removed from the test piece after each impact.

  4. After each impact, the test piece shall be checked for penetration by the impactor. A test piece shall be regarded as being penetrated if the impactor has completely pass through the test piece before five seconds has elapsed since the time of impact.

  5. After each impact, the test piece shall also be examined for signs of slippage from the clamping frame. The test is invalid if any edge of the test piece has moved more than 5mm in the clamping frame. If this is the case, then the prevent slippage, this shall be stated in the test report and the type test attestation.

Process:

In a cross-cut test six parallel cuts are applied using a template and defined cutter, down to the underlying surface, but without damaging it. The distance between the cuts is 1-3mm, depending on the coat thickness of the coating.
After this, six further cuts are applied at right angles, resulting in an even rectangular pattern.
All loose particles in the area of the cross cut are removed with a soft brush.

The test surface is then assessed by comparing with images in the table, depending on distance, cross-cut values of 0 to 5 are determined.
In the case of a multi-layer system it is also stated in which of the layers separation occurs.
