Footwear - Test methods for heels - Fatigue resistance (ISO 19956:2004)

ISO 19956:2004 specifies a test method for determining the ability of heels of ladies' shoes to withstand the repeated small impacts imposed by normal walking. Although intended primarily for plastic heels, the procedure is also usable for testing steel heel dowels on their own.
While the test method is applicable to all types of high heels of any construction, it is particularly useful for injection-moulded plastic heels that incorporate a steel dowel reinforcement.

Chaussures - Méthodes d'essai relatives aux talons - Résistance a la fatigue (ISO 19956:2004)

L'ISO 19956 spécifie une méthode d'essai pour déterminer l'aptitude des talons de chaussures pour femmes à supporter les petits chocs répétés imposés par la marche normale. Bien que destinée en premier lieu aux talons en plastique, le mode opératoire est également utilisable pour l'essai des goupilles de talon en acier.
La méthode d'essai est applicable à tous les types de talons hauts, quelle que soit leur construction, mais elle est particulièrement utile pour les talons en plastique moulés par injection, qui incorporent une goupille de renfort en acier.

1 Scope
This European Standard specifies a test method for determining the ability of heels of ladies’ shoes to withstand the
repeated small impacts imposed by normal walking. Although intended primarily for plastics heels, the procedure is
also usable for testing steel heel dowels on their own.

NOTE While the test method is applicable to all types of high heels of any construction, it is particularly useful for injection-
moulded plastics heels which incorporate a steel dowel reinforcement. The shape of some heels is such that they have a high
fatigue resistance. It is usually considered unnecessary to test such heels for fatigue resistance.
2 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this European Standard, the following term and definition apply.
fatigue resistance
resistance of a heel, under specified conditions, to repeated loading cycles.
3 Apparatus and material
3.1 The following apparatus and material shall be used:
3.2 Heel fatigue-testing apparatus, incorporating a motor-driven pendulum which can deliver blows to a test
specimen assembly, each blow having an energy of 0,68 J, at th
