Before the new model of the SolVin Bretzel was constructed, there were intense discussions and tests were performed on scale models, particularly:
Tests on the seaming between multiple layers:
-
Inflation tests
-
Tests on the resistance to pressure
-
Tests on the joint between two sections
-
Flexion tests
-
Stress tests, and seaming resistance tests
-
Tests on anti-leak strengthening
-
Tests on the pressure safety valves
