5、r criteria for approval have been met by the standards developer. Consensus is established when, in the judgment of the ANSI Board of Standards Review, substantial agreement has been reached by directly and materially affected interests. Substantial agreement means much more than a simple majority,

6、but not necessarily unanimity. Consensus requires that all views and objections be considered, and that a concerted effort be made toward their resolution. The use of American National Standards is completely voluntary; their existence does not in any respect preclude anyone, whether they have appro

7、ved the standards or not, from manufacturing, marketing, purchasing, or using products, processes, or procedures not conforming to the standards. The American National Standards Institute does not develop standards and will in no circumstances give an interpretation of any American National Standard

8、. Moreover, no person shall have the right or authority to issue an interpretation of an American National Standard in the name of the American National Standards Institute. Requests for interpretations should be addressed to the secretariat or sponsor whose name appears on the title page of this st

9、andard. CAUTION NOTICE: This American National Standard may be revised or withdrawn at any time. The procedures of the American National Standards Institute require that action be taken to reaffirm, revise, or withdraw this standard no later than five years from the date of approval. Purchases of Am

10、erican National Standards may receive current information on all standards by calling or writing the American National Standards Institute.

14、RWARD (This forward is not part of ANSI Z97.1-2015) This Standard was developed under procedures accredited as meeting the criteria for American National Standards. The consensus committee that approved the Standard was balanced to ensure that individuals from competent and concerned interests have

15、had an opportunity to participate. It was developed within the approved scope as stated in section 1.1 of the standard. This Standard is available for public review on a continuing basis. This provides an opportunity for additional public input from industry, academia, regulatory agencies, and the p

16、ublic-at-large. The use of an addenda system will allow revisions made in response to public review or committee actions to be published as required. This Standard, which is the result of extended and careful consideration of available knowledge and experience on the subject, is intended to provide

17、minimum requirements that are recommended for use, adoption, enforcement by federal, state and local authorities and by model codes. This standard is to be referenced but not incorporated in any statute or any other standard without the prior written permission of the publisher. This Standard does n

18、ot recommend where safety glazing should be used or, when it is used, what type of glazing material should be used. For this information one should consult other codes, standards and manufacturers information. Neither the standards committee nor the secretariat feel that this standard is perfect or

19、in its ultimate form. It is recognized that, although safety-glazing materials are widely used and accepted, new developments are to be expected and revisions of the standards are necessary as the art progresses and further experience is gained. This standard is a successor standard to the 2009e2 ed

20、ition. The 2009e2 standard succeeded those of the 2009e, 2009, 2004, 1984 (reaffirmed in 1994), 1975, 1972 and 1966 editions. The 2015 edition of ANSI Z97.1 has removed reference to Class C, 12 inch drop height and fire-rated wired glass. No test methods, references or exceptions appear in this docu

21、ment for Class C, 12 inch drop height and fire-rated wired glass. Compliance of all safety glazing products must be rated to either Class A or Class B in accordance with the procedures of this edition. In order for material to be considered for reference or to continue to be referenced in the ANSI Z

22、97.1 standard, it shall meet the following criteria: 1. The referenced material, including title and date, and the manner in which it is to be utilized shall be specifically identified in the text of ANSI Z97.1. 2. The standard or portions of a standard intended to be enforced shall be written in ma

23、ndatory language. 3. The scope or application of the reference material shall be clearly described. 4. The referenced material shall not have the effect of requiring proprietary materials. 5. The standard shall not prescribe a proprietary agency for quality control or testing. For communication with

25、cifications and Methods of Test CORRESPONDENCE WITH ASC Z97 COMMITTEE General ANSI Codes and Standards are developed and maintained with the intent to represent the consensus of concerned interests. As such, users of this Standard may interact with the Committee by requesting interpretations, propos

26、ing revisions, and attending Committee meetings. Correspondence should be addressed to: Secretary, ASC Z97 C/o Julia Schimmelpenningh Eastman Chemical Company 730 Worcester St. Springfield, MA 01151 Proposing Revisions: Revisions are made periodically to the Standard to incorporate changes that app

27、ear necessary or desirable, as demonstrated by the experience gained from the application of the Standard. Approved revisions will be published periodically. The Committee welcomes proposals for revisions to this Standard. Proposals should be as specific as possible: citing the paragraph number(s),

28、the proposed wording and a detailed description of the reasons for the proposal. Pertinent documentation should be included. Interpretations: On written request, the ASC Z97 Committee will render an interpretation of any requirement of the Standard. The request for interpretation should be clear and

29、 unambiguous. The following format is recommended: Subject: Cite the applicable paragraph number(s) and provide a concise description. Edition: Cite the edition of the Standard for which the interpretation is being requested. Question: Phrase the question as a request for an interpretation of a spec

30、ific requirement suitable for general understanding and use, not a request for an approval of a proprietary design or situation. Requests that are not in the above format may be rewritten by the Committee or its Secretary prior to being answered, which may inadvertently change the intent of the orig

31、inal request. The Committee reserves the right to deem certain requests for interpretations as not within its scope or expertise and refuse to address them. The committee reserves the right to reconsider any interpretation when or if additional information, which might affect that original interpret

32、ation, becomes available to the Committee. Persons aggrieved by an interpretation may appeal to the Committee for reinterpretation. The ASC Z97 does not “approve,“ “certify,“ “rate,“ or “endorse,“ any item, construction, proprietary device, or activity beyond what is addressed in the Standard. Atten

33、ding Committee Meetings: The ASC Z97 holds meetings that are open to the public. Persons wishing to attend any meeting should contact the Secretary of the Committee or www.ANSIZ for meeting information.

35、lazing Industry Secretariat Committee, have developed this recommended safety performance specification and test method for glazing materials through a consensus standards development process the American National Standards Institute has approved. This process brings together volunteers representing

36、 varied view points and interests to achieve consensus on safety related issues. While the ASC Z97 and its Secretariat administer the process in accordance with ANSI established rules designed to promote fairness in the development of consensus, neither the ASC Z97 nor its Secretariat independently

37、tests, evaluates, or verifies the accuracy of any information or the soundness of any judgments contained within the document, ANSI Standard Z97.1. The ASC Z97, together with its members, affiliates, and its Secretariat, expressly disclaim and shall not be liable for any personal injury, property or
