EN 12600 pendulum impact test, EN 1991-1-1 line load test, EN 1991-1-4 wind load calculation and EN 12150 fragmentation test. Calculation examples for FS1500, FS3000, FS7000 and EasyMod MARS with load diagrams and static report format.
50 kg twin-tyre pendulum, three drop heights: 190mm (Class 3), 450mm (Class 2), 1200mm (Class 1). Breakage types: A (large pieces), B (laminate intact), C (small fragments). For fall protection: minimum Class 1(B)1 required — VSG achieves this.
Applied at handrail height: residential 0.5 kN/m, office 0.5 kN/m, public 1.0 kN/m, crowd 3.0 kN/m. Deflection limit: L/100 (11mm for 1100mm railing). Tested with hydraulic cylinder and laser displacement sensor.
Example Istanbul 30m: vb = 28 m/s, qp = 907 Pa, we = 1270 Pa ≈ 1.27 kPa → FS1500 sufficient. Coastal 60m+: FS3000 or FS7000 required.
