Modified penetration test: The package is subjected to the normal penetration test except that the height of fall is 1.7 m.

OBS

Penetration test: The package is positioned on a flat essentially unyielding horizontal surface. A steel bar of 32 mm diameter with a hemispherical end and weighting 6 kg is dropped from a height of 1 m onto the exposed surface of the package that is the most vulnerable to puncture. Prior to dropping, the longitudinal axis of the bar is perpendicular to the surface of the package. The steel bar is not significantly deformed by the test performance.

Épreuve de pénétration modifiée : Le colis subit l'épreuve de pénétration normale, sauf que la hauteur de chute libre est de 1,7 m.

OBS

Épreuve de pénétration. Le colis est placé sur une surface plane, horizontale et foncièrement rigide. Une barre d'acier à bout hémisphérique de 32 mm de diamètre, pesant 6 kg, est lâchée d'une hauteur de 1 m sur la surface exposée du colis qui est la plus vulnérable à la rupture. L'axe longitudinal de la barre est perpendiculaire à la surface du colis, avant qu'elle soit lâchée, et les déformations de la barre d'acier restent négligeables lors de l'exécution de l'épreuve.
