Glass in building - Pendulum test - Impact test method and classification for flat glass

This European Standard specifies a pendulum impact test method for single flat panes of glass for use in buildings. The test is intended to classify flat glass products in three principal classes by performance under impact and by mode of breakage.
This standard does not specify requirements for applications, nor does it specify requirements for durability.

Glas im Bauwesen - Pendelschlagversuch - Verfahren für die Stoßprüfung und die Klassifizierung von Flachglas

Diese Europäische Norm legt ein Pendelschlag-Prüfverfahren für einzelne plane Glasscheiben für den Gebrauch im Bauwesen fest. Der Test sieht eine Klassifizierung von Flachglas-Produkten in drei Hauptgruppen über ihr Verhalten bei Stoßbeanspruchung und ihr Bruchverhalten vor.
Diese Norm legt weder Anforderungen für Anwendungen noch die Anforderungen an die Dauerhaftigkeit fest.

Verre dans la construction - Essai au pendule - Méthode d'essai d'impact et classification du verre plat

La présente Norme européenne spécifie une méthode d'essai à l'impact d'un pendule pour des vitres plates individuelles dans la construction. L'essai est destiné à classer les produits de verre plat en trois classes principales en termes de comportement à l'impact et de mode de cassure.
La présente norme ne spécifie ni exigences relatives aux applications, ni exigences relatives à la durabilité.

(847 ± 5) mm;-internal height: (1 910 ± 5) mmEach part of the clamping frame shall be fitted with a strip of rubber. The rubber strips shall be the only element incontact with the test piece and shall be (20 ± 2) mm wide and (10 ± 1) mm thick and have a hardness of(60 ± 5) IRHD in accordance with ISO 48.NOTEIt is recommended to use polychloroprene or a similar material.5.1.1.4 Impactor (see Figures 5 and 6)Impactor consisting of two pneumatic tyres, Tyre 3.50-R8 4PR 1) in accordance with ISO 4251-1, with roundsection and flat longitudinal tread. The tyres shall be fitted to the rims of the wheels that carry two steel weights ofequal mass. The weights shall be dimensioned so that the total mass of the impactor is (50 ± 0,1) kg.NOTEAn example of the impactor, using steel with a density of 7 830 kg/m³, is shown in Figure 5.5.1.1.5 Suspension system (see Figure 2)The impactor shall be suspended by means of a steel cable of 5 mm in diameter conforming to ISO 2408, from abracket attached above the head of the main frame. The bracket shall be rigid to ensure that the point ofsuspension remains stationary during the test and shall be positioned to permit the impactor to strike the centre ofthe test piece.At the highest drop height the angle between the taut suspension cable and the bracket shall not be less than 14°from the horizontal.When the impactor is hanging freely, at rest, the distance between the fully inflated tyres and the surface of the testpiece shall not exceed 15 mm and shall not be less than 5 mm (see Figure 2; D) and the centre line of the impactorshall be within 50 mm radially from the centre of the test piece.
1) Tyre 3.50-R8 4PR manufactured by Vredestein can be used for the pendulum test. It can be obtained from Vredestein BV,Ingenieur Schiffstraat 370, NL - 7547 RD Enschede, Nederland or Vredestein GmbH, August-Horch-Strasse 7, D - 56070Koblenz, Deutschland.The above tyre does not mean that CEN is recommending the use of this particular tyre. Equivalent tyres may be used as longas it is demonstrated that equivalent results will be obtained.SIST EN 12600:2004
