This International Standard describes methods for determining the stability of free-standing storage furniture, including cupboards, cabinets and booksheives, that are fully assembled and ready for use.
The tests are not applicable to wall-mounted or otherwise built-in units.
The test results are only valid for the article tested. When the test results are intended to be applied to other similar articles, the test specimen should be representative of the production model.
In the case of designs not covered by the test procedures, the test should be carried out as far as possible as described, and a list made of the deviations from the test procedure.
