PAS 68:2007. Dynamic impact test:
The impact conditions of the test were met with a total test mass of 3500 kg at a speed of 48km/h and at an angle of 90° to the line of the impact face.
The test was conducted with 4 sets of panels comprising of 5 water filled panels in each set and secured with reinforced fabric webbing.
Impact Results
The vehicle impacted the ram panels as designed and was rapidly brought to a standstill as the centre two groups of panels burst, releasing all the water.
While the vehicle was slowing, all the bags vented water through the top pressure relief valves. There was zero penetration by the vehicle, although the panels had moved a maximum of three metres from the datum line with zero dispersal of debris.
