Clause Test item Verdict
Abnormal (Proof) load(s) applied once each direction shall cause no sudden and major change in
the structural integrity of the chair. Loss of serviceability is acceptable.
31
Footrest Static Load Test – Vertical
This test shall be performed on all chairs with a footrest feature and a seat height equal to or greater
than (or can be adjusted to) 610 mm (24 in.).
On chairs with adjustable features, all adjustments shall be set at normal use position.
Functional load:
Apply a force F1 of 445 N (100 lbf) uniformly along a 102 mm (4 in) distance along the footrest but
not greater than 51 mm (2 in.) from the outside edge at the apparent weakest point of the structure
for one (1) minute in the vertical downward direction.
Next increase the force F1 to 200 lbf for one (1) minute.
There shall be no loss of serviceability or sudden loss of footrest height.
Proof load:
Apply a force of 1334 N (300 lbf) uniformly along a 102 mm (4 in.) distance along the footrest but not
greater than 51 mm (2 in.) from the outside edge at the apparent weakest point of the structure for
one (1) minute in the vertical downward direction.
The load applied once shall cause no sudden and major change in the structural integrity of the unit.
Loss of serviceability is acceptable.
NA
32
Footrest Durability Test – Vertical – Cyclic
The footrest durability test shall be performed on all chairs with a footrest feature and a seat height
equal to or greater than (or can be adjusted to) 610 mm (24 in.).
On chairs with adjustable features, all adjustments shall be set at normal use position.
A 890 N (200-lbf) force shall be applied uniformly along a 102 mm (4 in.) distance along the footrest
but not greater than 51 mm (2 in.) from the outside edge at the apparent weakest point of the
structure.
The force shall be applied and removed 50,000 cycles at a rate between 10 and 30 cycles per
minute.
There shall be no loss of serviceability. Adjustable footrests that move more than 25 mm (1 in.) in the
first 500 cycles shall be considered to have lost their serviceability.

33.1.3
Rear stability test
A. Backrest in most upright position or fixed backrest with an angle equal to or greater than 55°.
On chaise lounge chairs with adjustable features, all adjustments shall be set as follows:
a) Most upright position for the backrest;
b) The least stable condition of casters or glides.
Load the chaise lounge chair (or, for multiple seat units, load the seat of one of the seating positions)
with 6 disks.
Apply a horizontal force to the highest disk. The location of the force application is 6 mm (0.25 in.)
from the top of the disk.
a) For chairs with seat height less than 710 mm (28.0 in.), calculate the force as follows:
F = 0.1964 (1195 - H) Newton. H is the seat height in mm.
[F = 1.1 (47 - H) pounds force.]. H is the seat height in inches.
b) For chairs with seat height equal to or greater than 710 mm (28.0 in.), a fixed force of 93 N
(20.9 lbf) shall be applied.
The chaise lounge chair shall not tip over.
B. Backrest in the most reclined position or fixed backrest with an angle of less than 55°
On chaise lounge chair with adjustable features, all adjustments shall be set at the apparent least
stable condition for rearward stability.
