Clause Test item Verdict
This test applies to all hanging chairs.
For Multiple Seating, all seats not being cycled shall be loaded with 109 kg (240 lb.) of weight per
seat.
For Multiple Seating, each seat on the same sample shall be subjected to the test.
Functional load:
The test forces of 1500 N (337 lbf) shall be applied sufficiently slowly for 1time and maintain 60 s.
There shall be no loss of serviceability.
Proof load:
The test forces of 1870 N (420 lbf) shall be applied sufficiently slowly for 1time and maintain 60 s.
There shall be no sudden and major change in the structural integrity of the chair. Loss of
serviceability is acceptable.
A3
Durability Load Test of Seat (Alternative Method to: Seating Durability Tests – Cyclic)
This test applies to all hanging chairs.
For Multiple Seating, all seats not being cycled shall be loaded with 109 kg (240 lb.) of weight per
seat.
For Multiple Seating, each seat on the same sample shall be subjected to the test.
The test forces of 1100 N (247 lbf) by Any pad covers 16 inch diameter area shall be applied
sufficiently slowly for 10,000 cycles.
For Safety Level – Stage 1: there shall be no loss of serviceability to the chair after completion of the
load test.
For Safety Level – Stage 2 or Performance Level (Stage 3): the product must not show sudden and
major change in structural integrity after completion of load test. The product can show minor
damage or loss of serviceability.
NA
A4
Structural Strength Test of the Swing (Alternative Method to: Leg Strength Test – Front and
Side Application)
This test applies to all hanging chairs.
If adjustable features are available, all adjustments shall be set at normal use conditions.
Place a weight of 109 kg (240 lb.) in the center of each seating position.
Functional load:
A force of 334 N (75 lbf) shall be applied once push and pull individually for one (1) minute then
remove the force.
Normal (functional) load(s) applied once in each direction shall cause no loss of serviceability.
Proof load:
A force of 503 N (113 lbf) shall be applied once push and pull individually for one (1) minute then
remove the force.
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.
NA
A5
Oscillation Fatigue Test (Additional Test for Seating with Oscillation Motion)
This test applies to all seating with oscillation motion.
If adjustable features are available, all adjustments shall be set at normal use conditions.
Place a weight of 109 kg (240 lb.) in the center of each seating position.
The cycling device shall be adjusted to apply a “push-pull” action, or alternately may be applied by
alternating pull (or push) force application on alternating sides of the unit. One cycle shall consist of
one outward oscillation and one inward oscillation movement up to 25° or 200 mm from middle
position in each oscillation direction whichever is lower, or to the swinging stop (whichever is the
less) in both directions.
The swing shall be tested at an appropriate rate between 10 and 30 cycles per minute.
The device shall be cycled for 12,500 cycles.
There shall be no loss of serviceability.
