1.0 Report Issued To: Special-Lite, Inc. 860 South Williams Street P.O. Box 6 Decatur, Michigan 49045 2.0 Test Laboratory: Architectural Testing, Inc. 130 Derry Court York, Pennsylvania 17406 717-764-7700 3.0 Project Summary:
3.1 Product Type: Fiberglass Outswing Door
3.2 Series/Model: 3070 FRP Door
3.3 Compliance Statement: Results obtained are tested values and were secured by using the designated test method(s). This report does not constitute certification of this product nor an opinion or endorsement by this laboratory. It is the exclusive property of the client so named herein and relates only to the specimens tested. This report may not be reproduced, except in full, without the written approval of Architectural Testing, Inc.
3.4 Test Dates: 05/09/2012
3.5 Test Facility: Architectural Testing, Inc.'s shock tube is housed in a 10,000 square foot state-of-the-art test facility located in York, Pennsylvania. Blast loadings are produced on the specimen to simulate the effects of a high explosive charge at a specified standoff distance. Shock waves are generated by the sudden rupturing of a thin aluminum membrane. The shock wave expands as it travels down the tube, and impacts the target with a specific positive pressure and impulse. A photograph of the shock tube is provided in Figure #1 of Appendix A.
3.6 Test Sample Source: The test specimens were provided by the client. Representative samples of the test specimen(s) will be retained by Architectural Testing for a minimum of four years from the test completion date.
3.7 Drawing Reference: The test specimen drawings have been reviewed by Architectural Testing and are representative of the test specimen(s) reported herein. Test specimen construction was verified by Architectural Testing per the drawings located in Appendix D. Any deviations are documented herein or on the drawings.

3.8 Data Acquisition: In accordance with ASTM F 1642-04 and GSA TS01, four reflective pressure transducers are utilized to record data at a 1MHz sample rate. Two reflective pressure transducers are located on the specimen holder at the top and right side (when viewed from the interior). A third pressure transducer is located on the shell to the exterior of the specimen, and a fourth is located in the witness chamber, directly to the interior of the specimen holder. A sketch of the specimen holder and corresponding reflective pressure sensor locations are provided in Figure #2 of Appendix A.
