Preface
This Standard was prepared by the Standards Australia Committee CE-008, Chainlink Fabric Security Fences and Gates, to supersede AS 4687:2007, Temporary fencing and hoardings.
The objective of this document is to specify requirements for the design, installation, testing and storage of temporary —
(a) fencing;
(b) pedestrian barriers;
(c) hoarding; and.
(d) pool fencing.
These are collectively referred to as temporary barriers and are intended to limit unauthorized access to restricted areas.
This document also provides alternative ways to achieve conformance, either through design or physical testing.
This revision was initiated following a coronial inquiry, with the goal of creating harmonization across a range of jurisdictions.
The major changes in this edition are as follows:
[0] Additional guidance has been provided for determination of wind actions.
(i) The testmethods set out in AS 4687:2007 have been elaborated upon.
(iii) Where the previous edition was a performance testing standard, this revision provides alternative ways to achieve conformance, adding a design analysis approach.
(iv) Division of the previous edition of the document into a series of four parts, comprising
