1、Designation: E3086 17Standard Practice forCreating Appliques for Use in Testing of Nonplanar SoftBody Armor Designed for Females1This standard is issued under the fixed designation E3086; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revis

2、ion, 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 practice specifies a procedure for creating appli-ques (that is, build-up of clay) for use behin

3、d nonplanar, softbody armor test items and affixing the appliques to the clayblock.NOTE 1This practice describes a single applique shape; additionalshapes may be described in other standards.1.2 The purpose of this practice is to specify criticalparameters for creating appliques in order to improve

4、consis-tency of the test setup between laboratories.NOTE 2In the past, testing of nonplanar soft armor has been doneeither with an unspecified buildup of clay behind the test item or with thetest item pressed flat against the clay block.1.3 This practice is applicable only to nonplanar soft bodyarmo

5、r designed for females.1.4 This practice is not applicable to hard armor test items.1.5 This practice is primarily directed toward test laborato-ries but may be applicable to body armor manufacturers,researchers, and end users performing ballistic-resistance test-ing of body armor.1.6 In this practi

6、ce, “other standards and specifications” and“unless specified elsewhere” refer to documents (for example,military standards, purchase specifications) that require the useof this practice. Purchasers and other users are responsible forthe “other standards and specifications” and for specifying anyreq

7、uirements that supersede those of this practice.1.7 UnitsThe values stated in SI units are to be regardedas standard. Where appropriate, inch-pound units are includedparenthetically for information purposes.1.8 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated w

8、ith its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Significance and Use4.1 U.S. Department of Defense and U.S. Department ofJustice standards for assessing the performance of ballistic-resistant torso body armor require the use of backing assem-blies made with Roma Plastilina No. 1.

13、 The creation ofappliques behind nonplanar soft armor test items must be donein a consistent manner to reduce variability within and betweenlaboratories.4.2 This practice is applicable for certification testing or forresearch and development testing.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM C

Procedure for Making Applique Molds6.1 There are five possible sizes for appliques, and eachapplique size requires a separate mold.6.2 Creating the mold requires a mold box, an appliquepattern, and silicone. The size of the mold box and appliquepattern are de

20、pendent on the size of the applique that isrequired.6.3 Create an applique pattern whose top surface conformsto the equation below and whose base is formed by the x-yplane (where z = 0).
