The British Standards Institution developed PAS 68 as its first impact test specification during 2005. Similar to F2656, the PAS 68 standard
allows for multiple test vehicles at various speeds, yet indicates the specific vehicle penetration distance and debris measurement.
In 2013, several agencies collaborated to develop the IWA-14 standard; this standard combines elements from F2656 and PAS 68. The
distinct differences being minor vehicle weight variations, the location point for measuring at the barrier and no debris value.
BOLLARDS 3
FIXED BOLLARDS
Traditional shallow mount and ultra shallow bollards are ideal for locations that
require the security of an anti-ram bollard but are limited by excavation depth.
