1、Designation: F2781 10Standard Practice forTesting Forced Entry, Ballistic and Low Impact Resistanceof Security Fence Systems1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F2781; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision,
2、 the year of last revision. 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 threa
3、t using thelimited hand 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
4、their sub-assemblies and 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 mor
5、e than one person to transport andoperate.1.1.2 Medium Threat Level (M)Specifically exemptedfrom the inventory of available tools for the medium (M) threatlevel category are power tools requiring an outside powersource or self contained gasoline or battery driven tools anddevices requiring more than
6、 two persons to transport andoperate.1.1.3 Aggressive Threat Level (A)Specifically exemptedfrom the inventory of available tools for the high (H) threatlevel category are devices requiring more than two persons totransport and operate.1.2 The ability of a fence system to offer protection frombullets
7、 fired from a rifle or handgun would be beneficialparticularly in Border Fence areas where security personnelcan be targets during patrol activities. Accordingly, a limitedtest using a .38 Special handgun and a 7.62-mm rifle isperformed to determine if any level of protection is providedby the fence

11、or each rating a structured portion and a discretionaryportion as described in 4.2 and 4.3 is required.4.2 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
12、 tested.4.3 Following the structured portion of the test, the discre-tionary portion 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
13、based on the perceptionof the test director as to which tools will most effectively resultin a forced entry.4.4 Testing of security fence systems in accordance with therequirements of this test method shall result in a ratingreflecting the severity of the threat and the cumulative penetra-tion resis
14、tance time (see Table 2).4.5 The times used to establish the protection ratings ofTable 2 range 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
15、is important to recognize that thelowest threat level time will establish the maximum time limitfor a greater threat level.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F14 on Fences andis the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F14.50 on High Security Fences andPerimeter Barriers.Cur

S
18、ignificance and Use5.1 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.5.2 Normally, a test procedure of t
19、his 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 buildingcomponents resistant to evolving forced
20、entry techniques.Accordingly, the procedures presented herein are based moreon field experience than laboratory analysis. They are morerepresentative than inclusive, are intended to provide a basisfor the comparative evaluation of different fence systems usingforced penetration procedures, ballistic
21、 tests and impact test-ing, and are not primarily intended to be used to establish orconfirm the absolute prevention of forced entries.TABLE 1 Schedule of TestingAll Levels of Threat SeverityTime of Application (minutes)Structured Testing Discretionary TestingTool(s) L M A L M ACrowbar5lbby28in.(2)3

32、otivation of the personnel affectingthe forced entry.5.3.2 Absolute penetration resistance from forced entry by adetermined and well-equipped attack group is impossible.5.3.3 Aggressor groups range from unsophisticated crimi-nals and vandals to organized criminals.5.3.4 Attempts to force an entry ma

Intrusion sensors positioned as far as possiblefrom the protected environment in conjunction with optimalstructural and component design will maximize the timeavailable for a response force to intercept the

Sampling, Test Specimens, and Test Units7.1 Sample SizeIn order to facilitate test standardizationall test samples will conform to the sizes specified in 7.1.1.7.1.1 A minimum lateral area of 96 in. high and 30 ft inlength. The requirements of this section a
41、nd the procedures ofthe test method are intended to minimize test costs byconducting as much testing on single test segments, if possible.Impact Tests shall target the impact location of the vehicle atthe midpoint of the 30 ft. length to avoid contacting the verticalposts and performed after penetra
42、tion tests have been com-pleted to minimize costs of material and repair labor.7.1.2 Test EnvironmentThe location of the test shall be ina natural environment where the temperature minimum is notless than 40F and the maximum is 95F during the perfor-mance of the test. All tested materials and tools
43、will betemperature conditioned in this environment for a minimum of24 h immediately prior to initiation of any test. The areaimmediately adjacent to the test sample extending 6 ft to theleft and right of either vertical edge of the sample, 10 ft fromthe assault face of the sample, and 10 ft above th

Preparation of Apparatus8.1 Tools, Devices and Materials:8.1.1 Analysis of many of the aggressive actions againstinstallations that have resulted in forced entry has produced ane
45、xtensive list of tools and implements that are readily acces-sible to aggressor groups. From this comprehensive listing,tools and devices have been categorized as to the likelihood oftheir use and forced entry threat severity. While infinite in type,size, and construction, all can be categorized wit
46、h respect totheir principal effect and functionprying, screwing, pulling,shearing, cutting, and impacting. Additionally, certain toolshave been identified as those which are not actually tools, butwhich have a debilitating effect on protective barriers and arereadily available (that is, ropes, and s
47、o forth). While no attemptwill be made to completely list all the tools and implementswhich can be utilized to effect forced entry, Table 1 presentsthose tools and implements which have been determined to bereadily available and representative of the most effective offorced entry tools for the very
