Abstract:

Security Systems and Equipment-standards focus on protective design of buildings, including blast and forced entry resistant glazing, blast resistant doors, vehicle crash testing of perimeter barriers, and boat barrier perimeters. Test methods and practices also cover controlled access security screening equipment, as well as locking devices.

Detention and Correctional Facilities-covers security control systems and detention hardware, including hinges and locks, furnishings, and physical barriers, including swinging door assemblies and chain link barrier systems.

Homeland Security Applications-standards address CBRNE sensors and detectors, emergency preparedness, training procedures, decontamination, personal protective equipment, building and infrastructure protection, security controls, operational equipment, and terminology.

Driverless Automatic Guided Industrial Vehicles-addresses issues related to performance standards and guidance materials for 'automatic'-(e.g., automatic guided vehicles) through 'autonomous'- (e.g., mobile robots) unmanned ground vehicles (A-UGVs) with industrial applications. A-UGV applications include, but are not limited to: indoor warehouse, manufacturing, and medical facilities and outdoor security and shipyards

Exoskeletons and Exosuits-addresses safety, quality, performance, ergonomics and terminology for systems and components during the full life cycle of the product - from before usage, to maintenance, to disposal - including, security and information technology considerations. The activities cover industrial, emergency response, medical, military and consumer applications covering passive and active systems, enhancing and decreasing effects systems, as well as systems with physical and cognitive integration.
