BS EN 1729-1:2015EN 1729-1:2015 (E) 4 Introduction This part of EN 1729 is based on the principle that chairs and tables, intended for use in educational institutions for general-purpose education, should be designed to encourage good postures. This part of EN 1729 takes selected national stand

24、ards into consideration. It does not specify design, but only those dimensions which promote good posture for either fixed or adjustable furniture. The dimensional requirements of this European Standard permit various interpretations of design; hence customs, educational practices, technical and fin

25、ancial circumstances of individual countries can be satisfied. It includes a rationale for the determination of functional dimensions. The minimum dimensions specified are considered as the absolute minimum. They can be exceeded. The maximum dimensions specified are considered as the absolute maximu

26、m; smaller dimensions can be used. EN 1729-2 specifies safety requirements and test methods.
