Shot hole I

The mechanic spot load – short-term – large dynamics
Type of glass

Polished glass, figured glass, rolled sheet glass, armoured glass, all non-tampered monolithic glass

Examples

Pelt by guns

Beginning

Gunshot side;

A small, usually round inlet opening

Lines of process

A conical hole

End

The opposite side of the shot;

A remarkably larger opening of outlet

Other features

An almost round hole in the glass

Cone with the opening to the opposite shot side

Smooth acute/sharp edges;

Rear, small crosscut fragmentations;

Round shape = upright hit

Oval shape = diagonal hit;

Large kinetic energy = upright cone = acute/sharp edge;

Smaller kinetic energy = flat cone = irregular edge
