Important distinctions
Forced-entry objectives
Discuss the intended scope, supporting evidence, interfaces, and stated limitations.
Ballistic objectives
Keep evidence tied to the named product, assembly, configuration, and test scope.
Combined objectives
Do not assume that evidence for one objective establishes another.
Concealed-entry considerations
Consider architectural coordination, discretion, and information handling without sharing operational details.
Storm shelter distinction
This site focuses on serious residential ballistic and forced-entry applications. Wind and tornado shelters involve different hazards, guidance, testing contexts, and professional decisions; those terms should not be used interchangeably.
