Yes. Each must apply for product approval with reference to the common test. Each manufacturer shall provide a specimen for impact. The manufacturers of this agreement shall contact the Metro Dade Building Code Compliance Department to witness the production of each of the panels to be tested. Performing this testing procedure without contacting Metro Dade will result in an invalid test for Product Approval.
