(Specification)Standard Specifications for Selecting Chain Link Barrier Systems With Coated Chain Link Fence Fabric and Round Posts for Detention Applications (Withdrawn 2008)
Standard Specifications for Selecting Chain Link Barrier Systems With Coated Chain Link Fence Fabric and Round Posts for Detention Applications (Withdrawn 2008)
SCOPE
1.1 This specification provides the recommended criteria for specifying the construction of barrier systems for restricting access or ensuring human confinement, with the capability of defeating or seriously resisting any breaching attempts. 1.2 No recommendation is made or implied as to the merits of the product of any particular manufacturer. Choice of product components selection for the barrier system should be made by the writers of the project based on their own perception of the merits of products for this application. 1.3 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as the standard. The SI values stated in parentheses are provided for information only.
WITHDRAWN RATIONALE
This specification provides the recommended criteria for specifying the construction of barrier systems for restricting access or ensuring human confinement, with the capability of defeating or seriously resisting any breaching attempts.
Formerly under the jurisdiction of Committee F33 on Detention and Correctional Facilities, this specification was withdrawn in September 2008 in accordance with section 10.5.3.1 of Regulations Governing ASTM Technical Committees, which requires that standards shall be updated by the end of the eighth year since the last approval date.
