5 Protection Against Corrosion
--
5.1
Patio furniture made of the following materials shall be considered to comply with corrosion
requirements and corrosion testing is not required, all other materials shall be tested:
a) Copper, aluminum, or stainless steel; and
b) Bronze or brass containing at least 80 percent copper; and
Brass inserts containing at least 60 percent copper.
--
5.2
Patio furniture made of ferrous materials and provided with one of the coatings in Table 5.1 shall be
considered to comply with corrosion requirements and corrosion testing is not required, all other
materials shall be tested.
--
5.3
Patio furniture shall not be constructed of metals in any combination such as to cause galvanic
action that will adversely affect any part of the equipment exposed to moisture as shown in the Table
5.2.
--
5.4
If corrosion testing is needed a Salt spray test shall be performed using ASTM Testing from
Standard Practice for Operating Salt Spray (Fog) Apparatus, ASTM B117, with 5% concentration
neutral salt spray condition, test for 72 hours.
--
5.5
In reference to Salt spray test, 5.4 there shall be no less than rating 9 after 72 hours test on any
component that will affect the performance of the furnishing, the rating standard shall follow
Standard Practice for Evaluating Degree of Rusting on Painted Steel Surfaces, ASTM D610-08.

6 Welding
--
6.1
The welding process, materials and any special properties; joint configurations and preparation; and
welding procedure specifications shall be suitable for the application.
--
6.2
The weld joint specification shall have a min tolerance of 0 – 0.5 mm for any bevel or root gap and a
min trim tolerance of ± 0.5 mm. The parts shall be fitted as intended before welding and compliance
with the tolerance requirement shall be determined via a rod gauge. Verification of the adequacy of
the specified tolerance (minimum or other) shall be determined at the most adverse tolerance.
--
6.3
A fillet weld specification shall account for any curvature of the mounting surface. --
6.4
The specification for a beveled opening that accepts a separate part to be welded shall indicate the
point of reference to which the bevel is to be measured.
--
6.5
All welding joints shall be positioned for welding in either the flat or horizontal position unless made
using a production jig. The horizontal or vertical plane of the flat and horizontal joint vary up to a
maximum of 10 degrees.
--
6.6
A beveled opening shall be made using a production jig or other aid that enables consistency of
shape and dimensions with the specification. The production jig / aid shall provide visual indication
that the welded part has the specified penetration.
--
6.7
The minimum overlap of parts in stress-carrying lap joints shall be five times the thickness of the
thinner part.
--
6.8
Weld start / stops of intermittent welds shall be placed away from high stress areas (e.g. corners). --
6.9
Qualifications and training records for staff performing welding must be maintained and available for
review.
--
6.10
360° welding is required on all tube-to-tube, tube-to-plate, and tube-to-assembly welds. Strap-to-
tube welds may have the strap connected with short beads.

Horizontal Glass Impact Test
This test applies to all tables that have horizontal glass surfaces that do not comply with 4.3.
The sample is to be supported as normally supported by the frame.
A solid steel sphere, 51 mm (2 in.) in diameter and weighing 0.54 kg (1.18 lb.), is to fall through the
distance required to result in an impact of 6.8 J (5 ft-lbf).
The glass surface shall not crack or break.

Vertical Glass Impact Test
This test applies to all tables that have vertical glass surfaces that do not comply with 4.3.
The sample is to be supported as normally supported by the frame.
The glass surface is to be mounted in the intended manner. A sand-filled bag having a 760 ±13 mm
