1、Designation: F 2611 06Standard Guide forDesign and Construction of Chain Link Security Fencing1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 2611; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A
2、 number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide provides the material and installation stan-dards for selection in the design of a security chain link fencesystem. The pr
3、oper material selection, system installation andlayout can substantially increase the difficulty to penetrate;thereby, increasing the intrusion delay time.1.2 This guide does not purport to address all of the physicalprotection security concerns. It is the responsibility of the userof this standard
4、to establish the appropriate design for the levelof physical protection required and determine the applicabilityof regulatory requirements or limitations prior to use.1.3 It is recommended that Guide F 1553 be followed forthe format of this guide.2.
