4.0 Test Specifications:

Occupational Safety and Health Administration/U.S. Department of Labor Regulations Standards – 29 CFR 1926 Subpart M (Fall Protection) 1926.501(b)(4)(i); 1926.501(i)(2); 1926.501(b)(4)(ii) A 700 lbf. weight, fabricated from a bag filled with sand, was placed on the center of the dome for a minimum of 60 seconds. The bag was removed and the test unit was inspected for any signs of damage or failure. The bag was then dropped from a 2' height above the dome, any visible damage was noted. The static test was performed to demonstrate that a M74 DS tubular daylight device system, installed according to the manufacturer's instructions and in new or undamaged condition can support a 350-Pound weight at any one time based on 1926.502(i)(2). The impact test was performed to demonstrate the adequacy of the 700 lb. static test results.
