Designation:F300719An American National StandardStandard Test Method forBall Drop Impact Resistance of Laminated Architectural FlatGlass1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F3007;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 test method covers the destructive ball drop testingof laminated flat glass products intended for use in architecturalglazing applications.1.2 This test method is intended for use as an in-plantquality control test to evaluate the impact performance oflaminated flat glass when a 2.3 kg,83 mm diameter smoothsolid steel ball is dropped from a user selected height.1.3 This test method is not a substitute for safety glazing testrequirements of ANSI Z97.1 or CPSC 16 CFR 1201.1.4 This test method is applicable to symmetrical andasymmetricalannealed,heat-strengthened,chemicallystrengthened,fully tempered laminated architectural flat glassincluding but not limited to:float,patterned,sheet,sand-blasted,grooved,and fritted.1.5 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measure are included in thisstandard.1.6 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety,health,and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.Some specific hazards statements are given in Section 7 onHazards.1.7 This international standard was developed in accor-dance with internationally recognized principles on standard-ization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recom-mendations issued by the World Trade Organization TechnicalBarriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.2.Referenced Documents2.1 ASTM Standards:2C162 Terminology of Glass and Glass ProductsC1036 Specification for Flat GlassC1048 Specification for Heat-Strengthened and Fully Tem-pered Flat GlassC1172 Specification for Laminated Architectural Flat GlassC1422/C1422M Specification for Chemically StrengthenedFlat Glass2.2 ANSI Standards:3Z26.1 American National Standard for Safety Glazing Ma-terials for Glazing Motor Vehicles and Motor VehicleEquipment Operating on Land HighwaysSafety Stan-dardZ97.1 American National Standard for Safety Glazing Ma-terials Used in BuildingsSafety Performance Specifica-tion and Methods of Test2.3 CPSC Standards:4CPSC 16 CFR 1201 Safety Standard for Architectural Glaz-ing Materials3.Terminology3.1 Definitions:3.1.1 For definitions of terms used in this test method,referto Terminology C162.4.Summary of Test Method4.1 In this test method,a single lite of laminated glass(either made to size or cut to size)that has been fabricated fromglass meeting the specification of Specifications C1036 orC1048,or both,and quality parameters of Specification C1172is removed from the production process and subjected todestructive ball drop testing.After impact,the retention per-formance of the laminate is recorded and achieved drop heightdocumented.1This test method is under the jurisdiction ofASTM Committee F12 on SecuritySystems and Equipment and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee F12.10 onSystems Products and Services.Current edition approved April 15,2019.Published April 2019.Originallyapproved in 2013.Last previous edition approved in 2013 as F3007 13.DOI:10.1520/F3007-19.2For 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 American National Standards Institute(ANSI),25 W.43rd St.,4th Floor,New York,NY 10036,http:/www.ansi.org.4Available from U.S.Consumer Product Safety Commission(CPSC),4330 EastWest Hwy.,Bethesda,MD 20814,http:/www.cpsc.gov.Copyright ASTM International,100 Barr Harbor Drive,PO Box C700,West Conshohocken,PA 19428-2959.United StatesThis international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for theDevelopment of International Standards,Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade(TBT)Committee.1 5.Significance and Use5.1 The impact performance of laminated glass varies withthe glass ply thickness,type,and kind as well as the thicknessand type of interlayer used in the overall configuration.5.2 Specific safety properties are required for laminatedglass to meet the safety glazing requirements of ANSI Z97.1and CPSC 16 CFR 1201.Compliance with the minimumquality requirements of Specification C1172 does not consti-tute compliance or assure complian
