19、 3.3 test step sequence of 10 000 cycles Note 1 to entry: see 4.5. 4 Durability test method 4.1 General This test is for standing ladders or combination ladders used as standing ladders. 4.2 Principle The standing ladder is placed in position of use on the testing surface with the 4 standing ladder
20、stiles constrained to a fixed part by elastic rope/tape to prevent excessive progressive movement of the standing ladder (see Figure 1). Two equal loads P1and P2are applied to the standing ladder by testing apparatus following a well defined load versus time law of cycles: one load is applied to the
21、 topmost rung/step/platform and the other one is applied to the rung/step in the middle of the ascending leg. PD CEN/TS 16665:2014CEN/TS 16665:2014 (E) 6 The load application shall continue until the defined load value is maintained by the thrust device or until to the collapse of standing ladder. T

The structure shall permit to adjust
27、 the two cylinders position in x, y and z direction (see Figure 2) in order to meet the pads position respect to the stile both to the rung/step and platform as shown in Figures 3 and 4.

The plates shall be cleaned before testing. 4.3.5 Elastic ropes/tapes The four elastic ropes/tapes shall be installed in order to maintain the ladder position during the test in an a
31、verage position respect to the initial position. The characteristics of the ropes/tapes shall not produce measurable changes in the constrains of simple support between the base of the uprights and the test surface. 4.4 Test condition 4.4.1 Ambient condition The ambient temperature shall be (20 5) C
32、 before testing and remain within this temperature range during the test. 4.5 Test requirements The load shall be applied to achieve the pattern of loading as shown in Figure 5.

33、on) The sum of first cycle P1 and the second cycle P2 constitutes the durability test cycle. 4.6 Test procedure The test procedure consists of the following steps: a) verify that no defects are present on the standing ladder; PD CEN/TS 16665:2014CEN/TS 16665:2014 (E) 12 b) place the standing ladder
34、in its position of use at its maximum extension with opening restraints engaged on the test surface with one of the rear feet positioned on the 20 mm thick flat raised element, in order to simulate an uneven surface (see Figure 1); c) determine the rung/step at the position located horizontally from
35、 the mid-point of the ascending leg. If no rung/step is suitably positioned then select the closest rung/step above this location; d) place one pad/cylinder (P2) on the rung/step determined in (c) so that its centreline is (70 5) mm from the inside face of the stile corresponding to the side of the
36、ladder where the rear foot is positioned on the 20 mm thick raised element. (see Figures 3 and 4); e) adjust the pad/cylinder so that its vertical distance to the rung/step surface is (5 2) mm (see Figures 3 and 4); f) place the second pad/cylinder (P1) on the top rung/step/platform so that its cent
37、reline is (70 5) mm from the inside face of the opposite stile to P2and adjust it so that the vertical distance from the pad/cylinder to the rung/step surface is (5 2) mm (see Figures 3 and 4); g) constrain each of the 4 ladder stiles to a fixed element (e.g.by elastic, rubber, rope, tape etc.) to p
38、revent excessive progressive movement of the ladder; h) verify that each pad/cylinder is separately capable of exerting the test load of (1 500 50) N; i) set the test step at 10 000 cycles; j) start the test as per the test load sequence described in 4.5; k) the load application shall continue until
39、: the defined load value of (1 500 50) N is not maintained by the thrust device (ladder collapse), or the rupture of the standing ladder, or 10 000 cycles has been reached without collapse or rupture of the standing ladder. The maximum number of cycles of the test step is registered; l) where no rup
40、ture or collapse of the standing ladder is noted set the next test step of an additional 10 000 cycles; m) repeat steps (j) to (l) up to a maximum of 50 000 completed cycles; n) the total cycles of the durability test is the sum of each cycle. 4.7 Test report The test report shall contain at least:
41、a) total cycles of the durability test; b) description of the mode failure if any: ladder collapse or ladder rupture; c) description of damaged elements if any, e.g. hinge joint, pivots/seats, element connections, opening restrain devices and their attachments, bearing elements, rung/step, platform;
42、 d) significant photos of the ladder after the durability test including damages if any; PD CEN/TS 16665:2014CEN/TS 16665:2014 (E) 13 e) photos of the apparatus used.
