1、Designation:D384116An American National StandardStandard Specification forGlass-Fiber-Reinforced Polyester Plastic Panels1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D3841;the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or,in the case of revision,the y
2、ear of last revision.A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval.Asuperscript epsilon()indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.This standard has been approved for use by agencies of the U.S.Department of Defense.1.Scope*1.1 This specification covers the
3、classification,materials ofconstruction,workmanship,minimum physical requirements,and methods of testing glass-fiber reinforced polyester plasticpanels intended for use in construction.Panels for specializedor unique applications have the potential to require valuessignificantly above or below those
4、 stated in this specification.Recommended practices for certain specific applications areincluded as Appendix X1.This specification is not intended torestrict or limit technological changes affecting performancewhen those changes are agreed upon between the purchaserand the seller.1.2 Supplementary
5、information on chemical resistance,re-sistance to heat,and installation practices are provided inAppendix X1.1.3 The classification of these plastic panels into typesbased on relative response to a laboratory test shall not beconsidered a fire hazard classification.1.4 The values stated in inch-poun
6、d units are to be regardedas the standard.The values given in parentheses are forinformation only.1.5 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material.These notes and footnotes(excluding those in Tables and Figures)shall not be consideredas requirements of t
7、his standard.1.6 Fire properties are determined by using laboratoryflammability tests(Test Methods D635,D1929,and E84).1.6.1 This standard is used to measure and describe theresponse of materials,products,or assemblies to heat and flameunder controlled conditions,but does not by itself incorporateal
8、l factors required for fire hazard or fire risk assessment of thematerials,products or assemblies under actual fire conditions.1.6.2 Fire testing is inherently hazardous.Adequate safe-guards for personnel and property shall be employed inconducting these tests.1.7 The following precautionary caveat
