This standard defines a test procedure to permit classification of the explosion resistance of windows, doors, and shutters together with their infills. This standard concerns a test method against blast waves in open air resulting from high explosives that can be carried by hand and placed a few meters from a target. At such close distances blast values vary across an attack face. Controlled measurement of the actual blast on the face of the test specimen being difficult, costly and subject to inaccuracy, consistency of the blast forces is therefore controlled in this European Standard by the characteristics of the explosive charge and it's location (see A
