Glass in building - Security glazing - Testing and classification of resistance against bullet attack

This document specifies performance requirements and test methods for the classification of the bullet-resistance of glass (consisting of one or more layers of glass) and glass/plastic composites.
NOTE 1   The term "bullet-resistant glazing" applies to products that have the obvious characteristics of glass, but it is understood to include also laminated products of glass and plastics and in some saces, insulating glass units.
This document applies to:
-   attack by handguns, rifles and shotguns;
-   glazing in buildings, for interior and exterior use;
-   the glazing product itself, assuming proper fixing;
NOTE 2   The protection provided by bullet-resistant glazing depends not only on the product itself, but also upon the design and fixing of the glass.

Glas im Bauwesen - Sicherheitssonderverglasung - Prüfverfahren und Klasseneinteilung für den Widerstand gegen Beschuß

Dieses Dokument legt Leistungsanforderungen und Prüfverfahren für die Klassifizierung von durchschuss-hemmenden Verglasungen (ein  oder mehrschichtig) und Glas /Kunststoffverbunden für das Bauwesen fest.
ANMERKUNG 1   Der Begriff „durchschusshemmende Verglasung“ bezieht sich auf Erzeugnisse, die die eindeutigen Eigenschaften von Glas haben, aber er beinhaltet auch Erzeugnisse, die ein Verbund aus Glas und Kunststoff sind, sowie in einigen Fällen Mehrscheiben-Isolierglas.
Dieses Dokument bezieht sich auf:
-   Angriff mit Faustfeuerwaffen, Büchsen und Schrotflinten;
-   Verglasungen im Innenbereich und Außenbereich von Gebäuden;
-   das Verglasungserzeugnis selbst unter der Voraussetzung korrekter Montage.
ANMERKUNG 2   Der Schutz durch durchschusshemmende Verglasungen hängt nicht nur vom Erzeugnis selbst, sondern auch vom Aufbau und Einbau des Glases ab.

Verre dans la construction - Vitrage de sécurité - Essai et classification de la résistance à l’attaque par balle

Le présent document spécifie des exigences de performance et des méthodes d’essai permettant la classification de la résistance aux balles des vitrages en verre (constitués d’une ou plusieurs couches de verre) et des vitrages composites verre/plastique.
NOTE 1   Le terme « vitrage résistant aux balles » s’applique aux produits possédant les caractéristiques évidentes du verre, mais inclut également des produits feuilletés en verre et en matière plastique ainsi que, dans certains cas, les vitrages isolants.
Le présent document s’applique :
-   aux attaques au pistolet, fusil/carabine et fusil de chasse ;
-   aux vitrages mis en oeuvre à l’intérieur ou à l’extérieur des bâtiments ;
-   au produit « vitrage » lui-même, supposé correctement installé.
NOTE 2   La protection apportée par un vitrage résistant aux balles ne dépend pas uniquement du produit lui-même, mais également de la conception et du mode de fixation du vitrage.

European foreword
This document (prEN 1063:2019) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 129 “Glass in
building”, the secretariat of which is held by NBN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document will supersede EN 1063:1999.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are:
a) A new ammunition was added for class BR3;
b) A new class was created for rifles (KS);
c) Extension rules have been clearly defined.
Introduction
The main requirement for bullet-resistant glazing is to prevent the penetration of projectiles from
various types of weapon. The classification of bullet-resistance of glazing in this document is a technical
classification, based on common weapons and ammunition, in order of attacking power. As the variety
of weapons and ammunition does not allow them all to be taken into account, a selection had to be
made that covers most weapons and ammunition. The choice of bullet-resistant glazing is established
by the user for each individual case.
1 Scope
This document specifies performance requirements and test methods for the classification of the bullet-
resistance of glass (consisting of one or more layers of glass) and glass/plastic composites.
NOTE 1 The term “bullet-resistant glazing” applies to products that have the obvious characteristics of glass,
but it is understood to include also laminated products of glass and plastics and in some saces, insulating glass
units.
This document applies to:
— attack by handguns, rifles and shotguns;
— glazing in buildings, for interior and exterior use;
— the glazing product itself, assuming proper fixing;
NOTE 2 The protection provided by bullet-resistant glazing depends not only on the product itself, but also
upon the design and fixing of the glass.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

ejection of these splinters
3.3
attack face

the attack
3.4
perforation
piercing of a test piece by a bullet or by bullet fragments, and/or creation of an opening from the attack
face to the rear face
3.5
striking distance
distance between the centres of two strikes on a test piece
3.6

velocity of the bullet measured within 2,5 m in front of the attack face of the test piece
3.7
test range

4 Classification of the levels of bullet-resistance and test conditions
4.1 Classification and requirements for the testing
The bullet-resistance glazing intended to withstand certain level(s) of attack shall be classified
according to a class defined in one or more of the tables 1 to 3.
The target should be to match as closely as possible the nominal test conditions.
