Hardware for Furniture - Strength and loading capacity of shelf supports

This European Standard specifies test methods for the verification of the loading capacity of shelf supports. This standard does not apply to ceiling attached shelf support systems. The tests consist of the application of vertical loads and forces simulating normal functional use, as well as
misuse that might reasonably be expected to occur. With the exception of the corrosion test in 6.4, the tests are designed to evaluate properties without regard to materials, design/construction or manufacturing processes. The strength tests include only the shelf supports and their components as well as the attachment to the cabinet and/or to the wall. If the shelf support has additional functions, e.g. as a connector or as an extension element, these are not covered by this standard. The test results are only valid for the shelf supports tested. The results may be used to represent the performance of production models provided that the tested model is representative of the production model. The test results can only be used as a guide to the performance of the shelf supports. With the exception of the corrosion test, ageing and influences of temperature and humidity are not included.
Annex A (normative) includes requirements for product information.
Annex B (normative) includes test parameters.
Annex C (informative) includes method for the determination of loading capacity.

Möbelbeschläge - Festigkeit und Tragfähigkeit von Bodenträgern

Die vorliegende Europäische Norm legt Prüfverfahren zur Überprüfung der Tragfähigkeit von Bodenträgern fest.
Die vorliegende Norm gilt nicht für an der Decke befestigte Bodenträgersysteme.
Die Prüfungen bestehen aus dem Aufbringen von Vertikallasten und -kräften, welche den bestimmungs-gemäßen Gebrauch wie auch vernünftigerweise vorhersehbare Fehlanwendung simulieren.
Mit Ausnahme der Prüfung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit (6.4), sind die Prüfungen so ausgelegt, Eigenschaften ohne Berücksichtigung der Werkstoffe und der Ausführungs-/Konstruktions- oder Herstellungsverfahren zu bewerten.
Die Festigkeitsprüfung umfasst ausschließlich die Bodenträger und deren Bestandteile sowie die Befestigung am Schrank und/oder an der Wand. Wenn der Bodenträger zusätzliche Funktionen besitzt, z. B. als ein Ver-bindungs- oder als ein Erweiterungselement, so werden diese in der vorliegenden Norm nicht behandelt.
Die Prüfergebnisse gelten nur für die geprüften Bodenträger. Die Ergebnisse dürfen dazu verwendet werden, das Leistungsvermögen des Serienmodells zu repräsentieren, vorausgesetzt das geprüfte Baumuster ist für das Serienmodell repräsentativ.
Die Prüfergebnisse können ausschließlich als Richtwerte für das Leistungsvermögen von Bodenträgern ver-wendet werden.
Mit Ausnahme der Prüfung der Korrosionsbeständigkeit sind Alterung sowie Einflüsse von Temperatur und Luftfeuchte nicht enthalten.
Anhang A (normativ) enthält Anforderungen an Produktinformationen.
Anhang B (normativ) enthält Prüfparameter.
Anhang C (informativ) enthält ein Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Tragfähigkeit.

Quincaillerie d'ameublement - Résistance mécanique et capacité de charge des supports d'étagère

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les méthodes d'essai pour la vérification de la capacité de charge des supports d’étagère.
Elle ne s’applique pas aux systèmes de supports d’étagère fixés au plafond.
Les essais consistent à appliquer des charges et des forces verticales simulant un usage fonctionnel normal et un mauvais usage raisonnablement prévisible.
À l’exception de l’essai de corrosion décrit en 6.4, les essais sont conçus pour évaluer les propriétés quels que soient les matériaux, la conception/construction et les procédés de fabrication.
Les essais de résistance mécanique portent sur les supports d’étagère et leurs composants, ainsi que sur la fixation au meuble et/ou au mur. Si le taquet a des fonctions supplémentaires, par exemple s’il sert de connecteur ou d’élément d’extension, celles-ci ne sont pas couvertes par la présente norme.
Les résultats d’essai ne sont valables que pour les supports d’étagère soumis à l’essai. Ces résultats peuvent être utilisés pour indiquer les performances des modèles fabriqués à condition que le modèle soumis à l’essai soit représentatif du modèle fabriqué.
Les résultats d’essai ne peuvent servir que de guide en matière de performances des supports d’étagère.
À l’exception de l’essai de corrosion, le vieillissement et l’influence de la température et de l’humidité ne sont pas traités.
L’Annexe A (normative) comprend les exigences relatives aux informations sur le produit.
L’Annexe B (normative) traite des paramètres d’essai.
L’Annexe C (informative) donne une méthode de détermination de la capacité de charge.

Pohištveno okovje - Trdnost in nosilnost nosilcev polic

Ta evropski standard določa preskusne metode za preverjanje nosilnosti nosilcev polic. Ta standard se ne uporablja za sisteme nosilcev polic za pritrditev na strop. Preskus zajema obremenjevanje z navpičnimi bremeni in silami, ki nastanejo ob običajni funkcionalni uporabi ter tudi ob pričakovani nepravilni uporabi. Razen korozijskega preskusa iz točke 6.4 so preskusi so namenjeni vrednotenju lastnosti ne glede na materiale, obliko/sestavo ali postopke izdelave. Preskusi trdnosti zajemajo le nosilce polic in njihove sestavne dele ter pritrditev na omaro in/ali steno. Če ima nosilec police dodatne funkcije, npr. kot spojnik, ali ima podaljšek, tega ta standard ne zajema. Rezultati preskusa veljajo le za preskušene nosilce polic. Rezultati se lahko uporabijo za predstavitev lastnosti proizvodnih modelov, če preskusni model ustreza proizvodnemu modelu. Rezultati preskusa so zgolj smernice za lastnosti nosilcev polic. Staranje ter vplivi temperature in vlage niso vključeni, razen pri korozijskem preskusu.
Dodatek A (normativni) vključuje zahteve za informacije v zvezi z izdelkom.
Dodatek B (normativni) zajema preskusne parametre.
Dodatek C (informativni) zajema metode za ugotavljanje nosilnosti.
