Becauseit may not be technically possible to adequately depict all changes accurately, ASTM recommends that users consult prior editions as appropriate. In all cases only the current versionof the standard as published

13、 by ASTM is to be considered the official document.Copyright ASTM International, 100 Barr Harbor Drive, PO Box C700, West Conshohocken, PA 19428-2959. United States14.2 Distance between vertical support poles and attached mesh, along with other manufactured factors, shall be so designed andfabricate

14、d to hinder childrens ability to climb.4.3 Decorative details, if provided or added, shall not afford the ability of children to climb the mesh safety barrier.4.4 When a hinged gate is used in addition to, or as part of the mesh safety barrier, the gate shall be self-closing, self-latching,accommoda

15、te a locking device and open outward from the pool, spa, or hot tub. The self-latching and lockable devices for gatesshall be located at a minimum height of 54 in. (1.37 m) above grade and be mounted on the outside of the gate. An additionalsupport or plate may be necessary to raise the device to 54

16、 in. (1.37 m).NOTE 1Hinged gates in accordance with 4.4 are recommended for use with removable mesh fencing for swimming pools, hot tubs, and spas.4.5 There shall be a clear zone of at least 20 in. (50 cm) between the barrier and pool/spa/hot tub.4.6 The fence shall have at least 40 % open space to

17、allow visibility from outside to inside of the pool area.NOTE 2The “open space” is calculated by using total area and subtracting the area of opaque supports and mesh.4.7 The mesh safety barrier shall be removable when desired.4.8 The removable mesh safety barrier, when properly installed, shall pro

18、vide continuous and constant protection of the pool/hottub/spa. When used on an outdoor or unenclosed pool, the mesh safety barrier may provide complete 360 protection or may beattached to another existing property or perimeter fence in such a manner as to prevent unsupervised access to the pool. Wh

19、en usedin a screen enclosure, the terminus of the mesh safety barrier shall be fastened to an upright or vertical member of the enclosureand installed in such a location that the barrier prevents unsupervised access to the pool.4.9 Vertical posts of the mesh safety barrier shall extend a minimum of

20、3 in. (7.5 cm) below grade level and shall be spacedno greater than 40 in. (1.016 m) apart.4.10 The mesh used in the barrier shall have a minimum tensile strength according to Test Method D5034 of 100 lbf (449 N)and a minimum burst strength in accordance with Test Method D3787 of 150 lbf (667 N).4.1

21、1 The mesh shall receive a descriptive performance rating of no less than “trace discoloration” or no greater than “slightdiscoloration” or a numerical rating of 4 or 5 on a scale of 1 to 5 (1 indicating a severe color change and 5 indicating no colorchange) when tested in accordance with Practice G

22、154 (weatherability, 1000 h).4.12 When using a molding strip to attach the mesh to the vertical posts, this strip shall contain, at a minimum, #8 12-in.screws with a minimum of two screws at the top and two at the bottom with the remaining screws spaced a maximum of 6 in. (15cm) apart on center.4.13

23、 Patio deck sleeves (vertical post receptacles) placed inside the patio surface shall be of a nonconductive material.4.14 Alatching device shall attach each barrier section at a height no lower than 45 in. (1.14 m) above grade. Common latchingdevices may include, but are not limited to, devices that

24、 provide the security equal to or greater than that of a hook-and-eye-typelatch incorporating a spring-actuated retaining lever (commonly referred to as a safety gate hook).4.15 The bottom of the mesh safety barrier shall not be more than 1 in. (25 mm) above the deck or installed surface (grade).4.1

25、6 The mesh safety barrier shall be constructed to prohibit the free passage of a 4.0-in. (102-mm) diameter rigid sphere4,5 atany point, after testing in accordance with Section 5 when the fence is installed in accordance with the manufacturers instructions.5. Performance Tests5.1 Vertical Load Test:

26、5.1.1 A 18-in. (0.3-cm) diameter steel wire is looped through the mesh at a height of 36 in. (0.91 m) from grade.5.1.2 A steady vertical force of 20 lb (9(9.07 kg) (as measured by any force gage,gauge, that is, fish weight scale) shall beexerted steadily upward on the wire.5.1.3 The force shall be m

27、aintained 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 shall be inspected to determine that no opening exists that would allowpassage of a 4.0-in. (102-mm) diameter

28、rigid sphere.5.1.6 The latching and locking device shall remain engaged after testing.5.2 Impact Test:5.2.1 The impactor (52 lb) (73 kg),lb (23.58 kg), such as in Figs. 2 and 3 from ANSI Z97.1 (see Appendix XI), is preparedand mounted to a 12-in. (30.48-cm) fixture cable so that when at rest it is n

(150 mm) above the “

31、at rest” position. 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 released and allowed to impact once into the mesh safety barrier.5.2.4 The impactor test shall be used to test the fence at each 5-ft (1.5-m) incremen

32、t of the perimeter of the fence including anygate.5.2.5 Once the impact is completed and the test weight is withdrawn, the tested mesh safety barrier shall prohibit the freepassage of a 4.00-in.
