Designation:F109015Standard Classification forBank and Mercantile Vault Construction1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F1090;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the year of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1.Scope1.1 This classification is for the use and guidance of thosewho purchase,design,construct,install,approve,or modifystorage vault enclosures,intended for the protection of assetsagainst loss due to forced entry.1.2 This classification is a systematic arrangement of con-structed products,based on similar intrusion resistancecharacteristics,as derived from available test data.1.3 This classification does not address fire resistivity.1.4 This classification does not address the methods ofinterfacing vault components.Things such as tampernotification,intrusion detection,response timelines,or otherissues,typically forming a complete vault system,should beconsidered for inclusion.1.5 Nothing in this classification is intended to prevent theuse of systems,methods,or devices that provide a level ofintrusion resistance equivalent to that prescribed herein.1.5.1 Any system,method,or device different from thatdetailed herein may be examined,in accordance with the intentof this standard,and if found equivalent,may be included.1.6 Nothing in this classification shall be construed toprohibit better or safer conditions than the requirementsspecified herein.1.7 Each standard designation cited shall be meant to be theedition in effect on the date this classification was published.1.8 A rationale is given in Appendix X1.NOTE1For more information on the construction of bank andmercantile vaults,refer to the following documents:ASTM SpecificationsA184/A184M,A615/A615M,A635/A635M,C33,C94/C94M,C150,C494/C494M,C618,C685/C685M;American Concrete Institute BuildingRequirements ACI 318,and American Welding Society Structural Weld-ing Code D 1.4.1.9 The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regardedas the standard.The values in parentheses are given forinformation only.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2A184/A184M Specification for Welded Deformed Steel BarMats for Concrete ReinforcementA615/A615M Specification for Deformed and Plain Carbon-Steel Bars for Concrete ReinforcementA635/A635M Specification for Steel,Sheet and Strip,Heavy-Thickness Coils,Hot-Rolled,Alloy,Carbon,Structural,High-Strength Low-Alloy,and High-StrengthLow-Alloy with Improved Formability,General Require-ments forA820/A820M Specification for Steel Fibers for Fiber-Reinforced ConcreteC33 Specification for Concrete AggregatesC39/C39M Test Method for Compressive Strength of Cylin-drical Concrete SpecimensC94/C94M Specification for Ready-Mixed ConcreteC150 Specification for Portland CementC494/C494M Specification for Chemical Admixtures forConcreteC618 Specification for Coal Fly Ash and Raw or CalcinedNatural Pozzolan for Use in ConcreteC685/C685M Specification for Concrete Made by Volumet-ric Batching and Continuous MixingC1116 Specification for Fiber-Reinforced Concrete andShotcrete2.2 Underwriters Laboratories Standards:3UL 608 Burglary-Resistant Vault Doors and Modular PanelsUL 680 Emergency Vault Ventilators and Vault VentilatingPorts2.3 American Concrete Institute Document:4ACI 318 Building Code Requirements for Reinforced Con-crete2.4 American Welding Society Document:5D 1.4 Structural Welding Code Reinforcing Steel1This classification is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F12 onSecurity Systems and Equipmentand is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeF12.10 on Systems Products and Services.Current edition approved Jan.15,2015.Published January 2015.Originallyapproved in 1987.Last previous edition approved in 2006 as F1090 06.DOI:10.1520/F1090-15.2For referenced ASTM standards,visit the ASTM website,www.astm.org,orcontact ASTM Customer Service at serviceastm.org.For Annual Book of ASTMStandards volume information,refer to the standards Document Summary page onthe ASTM website.3Available from Underwriters Laboratories(UL),Corporate Progress,333Pfingsten Rd.,Northbrook,IL 60062.4Available from American Concrete Institute(ACI),P.O.Box 9094,FarmingtonHills,MI 48333.5Available from American Welding Society(AWS),550 NW LeJeune Rd.,Miami,FL 33126.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United States1 3.Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 alternate constructiona substitute method of fabri-cation.3.1.2 classificationa systematic rating of products basedon testing,according to approved criteria.3.1.3 emergency ventilatora device constructed ofintrusion-resistant materials for the introduction of fresh air.3.1.4 equivalenta term applied to two or more methods,procedures,materials,devices,etc.,expected to give the sameaverage result
