9、s3. Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method, referto Terminology C162.4. Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method, a single lite of laminated glass(either made to size or cut to size) that has been fabricated fromglass meeting the specification of Spec
10、ifications C1036 orC1048, or both, and quality parameters of Specification C1172is removed from the production process and subjected todestructive ball drop testing. After impact, the retention per-formance of the laminate is recorded and achieved drop heightdocumented.5. Significance and Use5.1 The
11、 impact performance of laminated glass varies withthe glass ply thickness, type, and kind as well as the thicknessand type of interlayer used in the overall configuration.5.2 Specific safety properties are required for laminatedglass to meet the safety glazing requirements of ANSI Z97.1and CPSC 16 C
