| Following months of in-house
design, computer simulations and further R&D testing, the Terra
Blocker, was successfully crash tested at TRL Crash Laboratories, stopping
a lorry weighing 7500kg, travelling at 50mph (80kmph), as specified
by the BS PAS 68:2007 standard.
The Terra Blocker model ATTB-80e, designed with a lifted height of 1100mm,
successfully stopped and immobilised the vehicle. With zero penetration
of the cargo trailer past the face of Terra Blocker, the equipment successfully
met the requirements specified in the BS PAS 68:2007 standard. This
impressive test result has not only proved the stopping
power of the Terra Blocker, but also the reliability and resilience
of design.
Frontier Pitts were confident in selecting the toughest test, to achieve
the BS PAS 68:2007 standard following the previous Terra Blocker crash
tests. The Terra Blocker model ATTB-80, designed with a lifted height
of 810mm, has been previously crash tested in accordance with DoS K12
and BS PAS 68:2005 standards, using an International truck, weighing
7500kg and travelling at 50mph, purchased from America.
No other company in the World can offer a product which can surpass
the standards for PAS 68:2007 and the Department of State certification.
This is a major breakthrough in high security, anti-terrorist barricades.
These test results have been witnessed by CPNI, previously NSAC (National
Security Advice Centre) plus NICC; the UK Governments Advisory Body
for Security.
Frontier Pitts have developed the Anti Terra Blockers to meet the requirements
of our customers at Airports, Embassies, Palaces, Government Estates
and Military Bases around the World.
