Damaged sill

p+a is favourite,to draw you a parallel I failed a motor years back on b pillar made out of filler,the appeal involved the ministry using summat that was a cross between x ray and ultrasound,this showed the b pillar smashed flat and built up outta filler,their verdict was p+a.....

Severe distortion is listed as a fail....BUT.......Appendix C notes that the strength has to be "significantly reduced"

If you can't make your mind up you know the answer.

I'll duck back below the parapet now.

I had a spot check a few year ago which was marked inconclusive because the examiner said I shouldn't have used a blunt object to separate tread to check for cuts as I failed it, he said to me to chill out a bit as he dosent do that out on the road and if the customer asks why I failed it I would need to start poking about with a blunt screwdriver, he said the customer will think I'm having a laugh, to be fair he is really good and I can have a laugh with him when he does site inspections not your usual examiner type.

Matters of testing hot tips on assesing tyres use a blunt instrument.

Good advice. I'll stop using a Stanley knife then.
But sometimes, if you want to see how deep a cut goes, you do need to use something to open it up a little.

Blunt instrument
Do they mean something like the metal end of the corrosion assessment tool.

I've always used a small flat blade screwdriver or the end of tyre tread tool if I'm too lazy to get a screwdriver. But this usually knackers the tool !!
So try to avoid doing that.

Looks like I could be wrong

Yes I know hence the blunt instrument. a small pocket screwdriver isn't really blunt when you think about it.
