Impact cannon simulates windborne debris from hurricane or tornado
An important part of the Test Wall system is the Impact Cannon, which simulates windborne debris experienced during a hurricane or tornado event. Testing and performance requirements for demonstrating tornado and hurricane resistance are addressed by standards such as ASTM E1886, ASTM E1996, Florida's TAS 201, FEMA 361, and ICC 500. Our powerful new Impact Cannon has the ability to shoot a 9-lb by 8-ft long 2x4 at 128 mph for hurricane testing and a 15-lb by 14-ft long 2x4 at 100 mph for tornado testing
