16、he removable mesh safety barrier, when properlyinstalled, shall provide continuous and constant protection ofthe pool/hot tub/spa. When used on an outdoor or unenclosedpool, the mesh safety barrier may provide complete 360protection or may be attached to another existing property orperimeter fence i

17、n such a manner as to prevent unsupervisedaccess to the pool. When used in a screen enclosure, theterminus of the mesh safety barrier shall be fastened to anupright or vertical member of the enclosure and installed insuch a location that the barrier prevents unsupervised access tothe pool.4.9 Vertic

18、al posts of the mesh safety barrier shall extend aminimum of 3 in. (7.5 cm) below grade level and shall bespaced no greater than 40 in. (1.016 m) apart.4.10 The mesh used in the barrier shall have a minimumtensile strength according to Test Method D5034 of 100 lbf(449 N) and a minimum burst strength

19、 in accordance with TestMethod D3787 of 150 lbf (667 N).4.11 The mesh shall receive a descriptive performancerating of no less than “trace discoloration” or no greater than“slight discoloration” or a numerical rating of 4 or 5 on a scaleof 1 to 5 (1 indicating a severe color change and 5 indicatingn

20、o color change) when tested in accordance with Practice G154(weatherability, 1000 h).4.12 When using a molding strip to attach the mesh to thevertical posts, this strip shall contain, at a minimum, #8 12-in.screws with a minimum of two screws at the top and two at thebottom with the remaining screws

(0.91 m) from grade.5.1.2 Asteady vertical force of 20 lb (9 kg) (as measured byany force gage, that is, fish weight scale) shall be exertedsteadily upward on t

25、he wire.5.1.3 The force shall be maintained for 1 min.5.1.4 The mesh safety barrier shall be tested at each 5-ft(1.5-m) increment of the perimeter, including any gate.5.1.5 Once the load is removed, the mesh safety barrier shallbe inspected to determine that no opening exists that wouldallow passage

26、 of a 4.0-in. (102-mm) diameter rigid sphere.5.1.6 The latching and locking device shall remain engagedafter testing.5.2 Impact Test:5.2.1 The impactor (52 lb) (73 kg), such as in Figs. 2 and 3from ANSI Z97.1 (see Appendix XI), is prepared and mountedto a 12-in. (30.48-cm) fixture cable so that when

27、 at rest it is nofarther than 2 in. (50 mm) away from the fence at a height of36 in. (0.91 m) from grade.5.2.2 The impactor is swung sideways and upward from themesh safety barrier until the bottom of the impactor is extendedsideways and at a vertical distance of 6 in. (150 mm) above the“at rest” po

28、sition. The bottom of the impactor will be at 42 in.(1.066 m) above grade for this test.5.2.3 When all motion has stopped, the impactor is releasedand allowed to impact once into the mesh safety barrier.5.2.4 The impactor test shall be used to test the fence at each5-ft (1.5-m) increment of the peri

29、meter of the fence includingany gate.5.2.5 Once the impact is completed and the test weight iswithdrawn, the tested mesh safety barrier shall prohibit the freepassage of a 4.00-in. (102-mm) diameter rigid sphere throughor around it at any point.5.2.6 The latching device shall remain engaged after te
