If an interlock device prevents any two of the extension elements from being opened simultaneously, open the extension element with the largest load. The table shall not overturn when the vertical force specified in Table
14、2 is applied at the centre of the front of the table, through a loading pad (EN 1730:2000, 5.6), 50 mm from the edge.

28、(informative) Table top deflection test A.1 It is recommended that the test specified in A.2 should be carried out if the deflection of the main surface of the table measured in the vertical static load test (EN 1730:2000, 6.3) exceeds 1/250 of the span for wood based panels, 1/150 of the span for t
29、imber products or 1/100 of the span for other materials. A.2 Testing of the deflection of table tops that are not made of metal, glass or stone, shall be carried out in a relative humidity of (50 5) % RH and a temperature of (20 5) C. The deflection of the tabletop shall be measured where it is grea
30、test. The greatest deflection shall be measured and recorded with reference to a straight line to an accuracy of 0,1 mm. Place the table being tested on the floor surface in its normal position. Load the table top uniformly with an evenly distributed load 1,5 kg/dm2. Maintain the test load for: 1 h
31、for table tops made of metal, glass and stone, one week for all other table tops. Measure and record the deflection at the same points and as specified above.
