This document specifies test methods for the determination of the technical characteristics of underlays under laminate floor coverings. It includes minimum performance requirements for the underlay-flooring system to give satisfactory service and to encourage the consumer to make an informed choice. It also specifies requirements for marking and packaging. Underlays pre-attached to the laminate flooring coverings are not covered by this document. Underlays for laminate floor coverings intended for use in electrostatically sensitive areas such as computer rooms, etc., are not covered by this document.

This document specifies a procedure for the determination of the dimensional changes and distortion out of plane likely to take place when textile floor coverings and tiles are subjected to varied water and heat conditions. The method is applicable to all textile floor coverings and textile floor coverings in tile form.

Scope

This document specifies material and performance requirements and test methods for knives with metal blades intended for use in the preparation of food in household or commercial kitchens as well as in slaughtering facilities.

This document does not apply for hunting knives, pocket knives, razors, utility or tool knives (with trapezoidal blade for cutting carpets etc.).

This document does not apply for ceramic knifes, which are covered by ISO 8442-9.

ISO 8442-5:2004 specifies the sharpness and edge retention of knives which are produced for professional and domestic use in the preparation of food of all kinds, specifically those knives intended for hand use. Powered blade instruments of any kind are excluded. Generally these types of knife are manufactured with blades of either plain edge design or with edges incorporating particular features to enhance or optimize aspects of cutting ability. The following two types of knife blade are suitable for the cutting test. Type A edges: cutting edges which can be resharpened by the user and edges with a pitch greater than 1mm; Type B edges: cutting edges which are not intended to be resharpened on a steel. Whilst these knives are predominantly manufactured with blades made from various grades of heat treated steels, the testing of knives of any construction or blade material is not precluded providing that the test criteria are met. The principle of the testing is to reproduce a cutting action, by forward and reverse strokes, against a pack of synthetic test medium under controlled parameters.

This document specifies safety requirements for stationary exercise bicycles and upper body crank training equipment in addition to the general safety requirements of ISO 20957-1.

This document is applicable to stationary training equipment type stationary exercise bicycles and upper body crank training equipment (type 5) as defined in Clause 3 within the classes S, H, I and A, B, C according to ISO 20957-1.

Any attachment provided with the stationary exercise bicycles and upper body crank training equipment for the performance of additional exercises are subject to the requirements of ISO 20957-1.

This document is not applicable to roller stands as they cannot be made safe in a reasonable way.

This document specifies safety requirements for exercise bicycles with a fixed wheel or without freewheel that have an inertia of >0,6 kg·m². The requirements are in addition to the general safety requirements of ISO 20957-1, with which ISO 20957-10 is intended to be read in conjunction.

Any attachment provided with the exercise bicycle with a fixed wheel or without a freewheel for the performance of additional exercises is subject to the requirements of ISO 20957-1.

This document specifies the requirements for step stools. This includes design characteristics, dimensions, materials, performance requirements, test methods and the declaration of suitability of use. This document is not applicable to ladders and stepladders as defined by EN 131-1. NOTE This document is applicable to both side ascendable ladder type step stools with an allowable standing height up to 1 m. Both side ascendable step ladders with an allowable standing height greater than 1 m belong to the scope of in EN 131-1. This document is applicable to step stools designed for general professional and non-professional use. This document is not applicable to step stools which by their design and instructions are intended and limited only for a specific professional use and as a result are not for general professional or non-professional use. This document is not applicable to products intended for use by children falling under the scope of CEN/TC 252 "Child care articles" or toys falling under the scope of CEN/TC 52 "Safety of toys". The products are intended to be used by one person only, requirements are based upon a maximum total load of 150 kg.

This document specifies the minimum requirements for the safety, strength and durability of all types of domestic seating for adults. It also specifies additional test methods for seat side-to-side durability as well as finger entrapment and shear and compression. It does not apply to ranked seating, seating for non-domestic use, office work chairs, chairs for educational institutions, outdoor seating and to links for linked seating for which European Standards exist. It does not include requirements for the durability of upholstery materials, castors, reclining and tilting mechanisms and seat height adjustment mechanisms. It does not include requirements for electrical safety. It does not include requirements for the resistance to ageing, degradation, flammability and ergonomics. The requirements are based on use by persons weighing up to 110 kg. Annex A (normative) specifies the seat side-to-side durability test in D-G points. Annex B (informative) gives rationales for some of the tests referred to in Table 1. Annex C (normative) specifies the test methods for finger entrapment and shear and compression. Annex D (normative) specifies the seat loading point for seating with suspended flexible material.

This document specifies the minimum requirements for the safety, strength and durability of all types of domestic tables intended for use by adults, including those with glass in their construction. It also contains additional test methods in Annex A and Annex B. It does not apply to office tables and office desks, tables for non-domestic use, tables for educational institutions or outdoor tables for which European Standards exist. It does not apply to trestle tables. With the exception of stability tests, this document does not provide assessment of the suitability of any storage features included in domestic tables. It does not include requirements for electrical safety. It does not include requirements for the resistance to ageing and degradation. Annex A (normative) contains test methods for finger entrapment. Annex B (informative) contains a table top deflection test. Annex C (informative) contains a rationale.

This document specifies safety requirements and test methods for slings used for mountaineering including climbing and related activities.

This document specifies procedures for assessment and verification of constancy of performance (AVCP). This document is applicable to roomheaters, inset appliances and cookers which can be fired batchwise in fuel baskets for wood pellets (freestanding manually fuelled intermittent burning appliances). This document is applicable to appliances with fully integrated baskets for wood pellets which are integral component of the appliance. If the appliance is to be fired with wood logs or compressed untreated wood (wood briquettes), the configuration of the combustion chamber can be changed according to the instructions. Different fuels cannot be operated at the same time and they can be tested separately according the relevant part of EN 16510-2-x. The intended use of the appliances is space heating in residential buildings and can be cooking (when tested accordingly). These appliances can be supplied either as an assembled appliance or as a predesigned unit consisting of prefabricated components designed to be built on site in accordance with the specified assembly instructions. They only operate with the firedoors closed. This document is not applicable to: - mechanically fed appliances; - appliances with fan assisted combustion air; - appliances with boiler.
