Merged Reflective Event
Merged Reflective Event
This symbol denotes a reflective event combined with one or more other 
reflective events. It also indicates the total loss produced by the merged 
reflective events following it in the events table.
³
A Merged Reflective Event is composed of reflective events. Only the 
Merged Reflective Event is displayed in the events table, not the 
reflective subevents composing it.
³
Reflective events may indicate the presence of connectors, 
mechanical splices, or poor-quality fusion splices or cracks.
³
A reflectance value is specified for all merged reflective events and 
indicates the maximum reflectance for the merged event. A 
reflectance value, corresponding to the highest reflectance value 
among all subevents composing the Merged Reflective Event, is also 
displayed.
