Essential Testing

It essential that products designed to protect people and property undergo thorough testing. The staff at SJH Projects have carried out many explosive trials in the process of product development. We can help you exploit this experience to bring your own products to market.

The process starts with a consultation in which the end use and market sector requirements are discussed. Advice is then given on what level of testing, and where necessary, what formal test specifications should be followed. Liaison with the test ranges is then undertaken and all the planning other than test item manufacture is carried out on behalf of the customer. If required, the test footage/photos and data can be edited into a short movie or clips for presentations to potential customers.

Blast Testing

We have carried out a wide variety of blast test using the appropriate specifications for the industry or application at hand. SJH projects can also assist in designing your test configuration and the test rigs themselves. Test management, data and imagery processing and detailed reporting can be provided to fully support the customer’s needs.

Ballistic Testing

SJH Projects can also arrange ballistic tests and assess product durability appropriate to the intended use.

It is crucial to state upfront: The name is a conceptual fusion of a real, future Windows release ("Windows 11") and a legendary, tumultuous codename from the past ("Longhorn").

However, as a thought experiment, design analysis, and community-driven concept, "Windows 11 Longhorn" represents a fascinating idea: What if the ambitious, revolutionary features planned for Windows Vista (originally codenamed Longhorn) were rebuilt today using modern Windows 11 technology?

However, its spirit lives on. Every time you use , OneDrive's file-on-demand , PowerToys Run (a primitive WinFS launcher), or the Windows 11 Widget Board , you are touching a tiny, practical fragment of the original Longhorn dream.

The true successor to Longhorn is not an OS; it's a —Microsoft Graph, AI, and cloud storage—integrated into a lightweight local shell. "Windows 11 Longhorn" is the beautiful, impossible vision of what happens when you give that service layer full control of the metal. It remains, for Windows enthusiasts, the ultimate "what if."

Test Limbs

SJH Projects has become the distributor for the NATO approved ‘Frangible Surrogate Leg’ for fast event impact testing. We also provide the ‘Frangible Surrogate Headform for blunt trauma and ballistic testing.
