PAS 68:2013

This standard PAS 68:2013 Impact test specifications for vehicle security barrier systems is classified in these ICS categories:

• 93.080.30 Road equipment and installations

This Publicly Available Specification (PAS) cites a classification system for the performance of vehicle security barriers (VSBs) and their supporting foundations when subjected to a single horizontal impact.

This PAS specifies two test methods of determining the performance classification of VSB systems:

• the vehicle impact method;

• the design method [which includes the use of finite element analysis (FEA) techniques if validated by test data].

This PAS does not cover the performance of a VSB system when subjected to blast or ballistic impact.
