5.3.1
Required Information.  The following information is
required for a ballistic resistant glazing evaluation:
a) Ballistic Tactic Design Basis Threat (medium, high,
or very high).  This information is determined using
Appendix D and is recorded on the Glazing System
Design Criteria Summary worksheet.
b) Cross-section ballistic resistance certification.
c) Cross-section thicknesses.
d) Frame ballistic resistance certification.
e) Frame properties.  Refer to Section 2 for
descriptions of frame properties.
f) Worksheets (see Appendix B):
1)  Cross-Section Evaluation (CSE)
2)  Frame Evaluation (FE)
3)  Wall Evaluation (WE)

Cross-Section Ballistic Resistant Thicknesses
Procedure.  This procedure helps to evaluate the performance of
an existing glazing cross-section subjected to ballistic attack.
It provides a set of structures that step an analyst through the
process of getting cross-section thicknesses for glazings known
to resist specific levels of ballistic attacks.  A process chart
