Description / Abstract:
These requirements cover materials, devices, and fixtures used
to form bullet-resisting barriers which protect against robbery,
holdup, or armed attack such as those by snipers.
This standard can also be used to determine the bullet
resistance of building components that do not fit the definition of
equipment, such as windows, walls, or barriers made out of bullet
resistant materials.
As used in these requirements, the term "bullet-resisting"
signifies that protection is provided against complete penetration,
passage of fragments of projectiles, or spalling (fragmentation) of
the protective material to the degree that injury would be caused
to a person standing directly behind the bullet-resisting
barrier.
These requirements also cover electrically-operated equipment,
such as teller’s fixtures using electrically-driven deal trays or
package passers, and intercommunication or other electrical
equipment that is an integral part of the bullet-resisting
product.
The term ²product² as used in this standard refers to all
bullet-resisting equipment or any part thereof covered by this
standard unless specifically noted otherwise.
