United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization T

17、echnical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.16. Weave6.1 The wire shall be woven throughout in the form ofapproximately uniform square mesh, having parallel sides andhorizontal and vertical diagonals of approximately uniformdimensions. The top and bottom of the fabric shall be knuckledor twisted as s

18、pecified in Section 10.6.2 Typical diamond count for each standard height isshown in Table 1. Other diamond counts are permissibleprovided that they are consistent within a lot. The purchaserhas the option to specify the diamond count (4.1.5).7. Size of Mesh7.1 The size of mesh shall be as indicated

19、 in Table 2 (seeFig. 1).7.2 The permissible variation from the specified size ofmesh shall be 618 in. (63.2 mm) for all mesh sizes over 1 in.(25 mm), and 6116 in. (61.6 mm) for all mesh sizes 1 in. (25.4mm) and under.7.3 The size of mesh shall be determined by measuring theminimum clear distance bet

20、ween the wires forming the parallelsides of the mesh, and determined as the average of tworeadings taken at right angles to each other.8. Size of Wire8.1 Chain-link fabric shall be fabricated from wire diam-eters as listed in Specification A817, with a permissiblevariation from the specified diamete

21、r of the coated wire of60.005 in. (60.13 mm).9. Height of Fabric9.1 Chain-link fabric shall be furnished in the standardheights shown in Table 2. Custom order fabric is available inheights to and including 20 ft. (6.56 m). The height of fabricshall be the overall dimension from ends of twists or knu

22、ckles.The permissible variation from the specified height shall be 61in. (625 mm) for standard selvage on fabric with mesh sizes 1in. (25 mm) and over and 612 in. (613 mm) for all fabric withmesh sizes less than 1 in. (25 mm).10. Selvage10.1 Unless otherwise specified by the purchaser, fabricswith 2

23、- or 218-in. (50- or 54-mm) mesh, in heights 60 in. (1520mm) and under shall be knuckled at both selvages. Fabric 72in. (1830 mm) high and over shall be knuckled at one selvageand twisted at the other.10.2 The selvages of fabrics with meshes of less than 2 in.(50 mm) shall be knuckled.NOTE 2Caution:

24、 Twisted selvages for fence fabric under 72 in. (1830mm) in height are not recommended because of consumer safety consid-erations.11. Weight of Aluminum Coating11.1 The weight of aluminum coating on the wire in thefabric shall be as specified in Specification A817, for the wirediameter used (see Tab

25、le 3).12. Breaking Strength12.1 Wire constituting the fabric shall meet the minimumbreaking strength listed in the Breaking Strength Table ofSpecification A817 (see Table 4) when tested in accordancewith Test Methods and Definitions A370. Specimens used toestablish conformance with this requirement

26、shall consist ofindividual pickets from a section of the fence fabric. Thespecimen shall be of sufficient length so as to be firmly grippedin the testing machine after straightening. The actual gagelength (distance between jaws) of the specimen shall be limitedto the undeformed length of wire betwee

27、n two adjacentstraightened bends.13. Workmanship, Finish, and Appearance13.1 Chain-link fence fabric shall be produced by methodsrecognized as good commercial practices. The aluminizedbefore-weaving fabric shall be woven using proven industryprocedures to ensure a smooth consistent surface withoutpe

28、netrating to the substrate, except at the selvage cut ends, seeNote 3.13.2 Excessive roughness, blisters, and flaking shall benoted. These and other defects, if present to any considerableextent, shall provide a basis for rejection.TABLE 1 Typical Diamond CountANOTE 1Other diamond counts are permitt

Standard Length of Rolls14.1 The standard length of roll shall be 50 ft (15.24 m) 61 % except as otherwise agreed upon at the time of purchase.14.2 The length of roll shall be determined by unrolling aroll of fabric on a flat surface and exerting tension byappropriate means to

33、remove all slack. The tension appliedshall not reduce the actual height of the fabric by more than116 in. ft (5.3 mm/m) of height or by more than12 in. (12.7mm), whichever is less.15. Sampling and Number of Tests15.1 One roll from every 50 rolls or fraction thereof in a lotshall be taken at random a

34、s a sample for test purposes. In nocase shall less than two samples be tested except when the lotis less than 10 rolls only one roll shall be selected for thesample.15.2 Sample rolls selected shall be inspected for weave(Section 6), size of mesh (Section 7), diamond count (6.2), wiresize (Section 8)

35、, height of fabric (Section 9), selvage (Section10) and length (Section 14).15.3 If any specimen tested fails to meet the requirements ofthis specification, the roll represented by the specimen shall berejected and two additional rolls shall be inspected, both ofwhich shall meet the requirements in

36、every respect; otherwise,the lot represented by the samples may be rejected.TABLE 2 Sizes of Wire and MeshANOTE 1 For fabric heights over 144 in., see 9.1.Specified Diameter ofCoated Wire, in.Size, Coated Wire Gage Size of Mesh, in.BHeight of Fence Fabric, in.0.192 6 2 36, 42, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 10
