1、Designation: F 2781 09Standard Practice forTesting Forced Entry Resistance of Security FenceSystems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 2781; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revisi
2、on. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 The forced entry resistance of fence systems is evalu-ated relative to three levels of forced entry threat using thelimited hand
3、tool inventory outlined in Table 1. It alsoestablishes a system for rating the forced entry resistance ofthose systems (see Table 2). The tools specified to be used fortesting at each threat level are those that are known to have amaximum destructive effect on structures and their sub-assemblies and
4、 are readily available to aggressors categorizedas posing that level of threat.1.1.1 Low Threat Level (L)Specifically exempted fromthe inventory of available tools for the low (L) threat levelcategory are power tools (gasoline, electric or hydraulic), anddevices requiring more than one person to tra

Summary of Practice3.1 For each rating a structured portion and a discretionaryportion as described in
8、3.2 and 3.3 is required.3.2 The structured portion of the test provides for a zero tofive minute test with specific tools selected as the mostdebilitating from the tool list in Table 1, regardless of the fencesystem being tested.3.3 Following the structured portion of the test, the discre-tionary po
9、rtion of the test provides up to 55 minutes of testing,optimizing forced entry efforts by selecting any (or all) toolsfrom the applicable category of the list (low (A), medium (B),or aggressive (C). Selection of tools is based on the perceptionof the test director as to which tools will most effecti

11、ange from 060 minutes and are intended to reflect theelapsed time of forced entry resistance necessary for a responseforce to arrive and counter the threat with additional defensivepersonnel and equipment. It is important to recognize that thelowest threat level time will establish the maximum time
12、limitfor a greater threat level.4. Significance and Use4.1 The success or failure of any attempt to forcefullypenetrate a fence system is dependent upon three primaryfactors that collectively define the threatthe tools and devicesemployed, the number of aggressors, and their level of sophis-tication
13、.4.2 Normally, a test procedure of this scope would besupported by years of laboratory testing intended to qualify andaccurately reproduce the destructive effects of a variety oftools, implements, and devices. However, rapidly changingsocial conditions have created an immediate need for buildingcomp
