Does the standard apply, and what is the next step?

Answer six questions about the barrier and the evidence. The check returns a scope reading, the clause path that applies, the weakest step and three actions. It runs in your browser and sends nothing anywhere. It is a reading of your answers, not a compliance result.

Is the barrier intended to stop a vehicle? A passive, active, portable or linear barrier used to prevent hostile vehicular access is a VSB. An access barrier that only controls traffic is not.

What is your role? The standard is written for manufacturers and procurers. The role decides which clauses carry the work.

Which edition do you rely on today? ISO 22343-1:2023 is published. Amendment 1 is at FDIS and not published.

What test evidence do you hold? The report under Clause 6.8 is the evidence. A summary or a certificate is not the report.

Have you decoded the rating string? The class, angle, penetration and debris are the parts most often lost.

Does the installed foundation match the tested one? Clause 5.2 conformity is the bridge from the test to the site.

Your planning dateThe site uses 15 February 2027 as an estimate. Put your own date here; the plan is yours.

Blank answers return "scope incomplete" and name what is missing. The check never assumes the lighter pathway.

JavaScript is off. The check needs JavaScript to compute the reading. You can still read the clause register and the dated plan. The six questions are: whether the barrier is intended to stop a vehicle; your role; which edition you rely on; what test evidence you hold; whether the rating string is decoded; and whether the installed foundation matches the tested one.

The answer today

ISO 22343-1:2023 is the published edition

Amendment 1 is at stage 50.00 and its text is not public. The clause path below is the same under either label. The check never calls a barrier conformant and never converts an old rating.

How the dates are used

The ISO page records stage 50.00 on 8 October 2026. No publication date is recorded. The planning date of 15 February 2027 is an estimate for this site, not an ISO commitment. Your own date replaces it in the result and the plan.

THE RULE

What each question applies

The clauses

Input	How it is used	Source
Barrier function	If the barrier is not intended to stop a vehicle, it is outside the scope. If unsure, the check returns scope incomplete.	Clause 1; Clause 3.1
Role	A manufacturer or procurer carries the full clause path. An operator adds the application guidance in ISO 22343-2.	Clause 1; ISO 22343-2
Edition	The base edition is published. An old IWA 14-1 or PAS 68 rating is not converted by assertion.	ISO page 50080; Clause 7
Report	A summary or certificate is a gap. The report under Clause 6.8 is the evidence.	Clause 6.8
Rating	An undecoded string is the second gap, because the class, angle, penetration and debris decide the claim.	Clause 7.2
Foundation	A site installation that differs from the tested one puts the rating in question.	Clause 5.2; Clause 6.4

A blank or impossible answer returns "scope incomplete" and names the missing item. The check never guesses a lighter pathway.

THE RECORD THIS IS BUILT FROM

Read from the public record, not invented

Every clause answer on this site points to the official record or the public preview behind it, so you can check any line yourself. The register holds 25 records, 111 evidence lines and 100 common failure lines. The dates come from the ISO stage record. The amendment text is not public, and this site does not describe what it changes.

Read the record

The base standard is published. The amendment text is not public at FDIS. Each record cites the public source it comes from. Where the public record is silent, the page says so.

The check is a reading of your answers, not an audit and not a compliance result. It does not decide whether the barrier is suitable for a site, lawful or safe. It does not certify anything and it is not legal advice.
