15、;mass;rescue;system;testAPPENDIX(Nonmandatory Information)X1.BACKGROUNDX1.1 The listed masses have had descriptive terms appliedto them by the originators or users to denote what the massrepresents.However,these descriptors have not been appliedconsistently between various users and originators.For
16、thisreason,the mass value itself or the ASTM classification shallbe used when referring to the test masses.X1.2 To assist a user in determining what the test masseswere intended to represent,for reference purposes only,thedescriptors follow.Regardless of the descriptor,the user mustdetermine the proper mass to represent the test load.X1.2.1 80 kgA single climber(recreational or sport);therescue subject.X1.2.2 100 kgA single rescuer;the rescue subject andmedical equipment(for example,subject in a
