22、nts 4.1 General requirements Wall bars, lattice ladders and climbing frames shall comply with the requirements of EN 913, except insofar as they are modified by this European Standard. Typical examples are shown in Figures A.1 to A.4. 4.2 Strength 4.2.1 Pre-installation with the equipment assembled
23、for bars, joints and supports 4.2.1.1 When tested in accordance with 5.1.1, the bar, joint and supports shall show no signs of loose bonds, cracking, breaking or permanent deformation. 4.2.1.2 When tested in accordance with 5.1.2, the bar shall show no signs of rotation. 4.2.2 Post-installation stre
24、ngth When tested in accordance with 5.2, the equipment shall not “pull away” from the wall. 4.3 Supports For wall bars, the distance between supports shall be not less than 800 mm. For lattice ladders and climbing frames, the distance between supports shall be not less than 500 mm. 4.4 Height For wa
25、ll bars, the highest bar shall be not more than 3 000 mm above the ground. For lattice ladders and climbing frames, the highest bar shall be not more than 5 000 mm above the ground. 5 Test methods 5.1 Pre-installation with the equipment assembled for bars, joints and supports 5.1.1 Apply a force of
26、1 700 N 50 N in the middle of a bar, perpendicular to the face of the apparatus, for 5 min 10 s; see Figure 2. Remove the force and examine the bar, joint and supports for signs of loose bonds, cracking or permanent deformation. 5.1.2 Apply a torque of 50 N m 2N m to a bar for 5 min 10 s. Remove the
27、 torque and examine the bar for signs of rotation. 5.2 Post-installation strength After installation according to the manufacturers instructions and with the equipment in its intended position of use, apply a force F 1 , centrally to the top bar, perpendicular and away from the wall, of 900 N for 5
28、min 10 s; see Figure 3. Remove the force and determine whether the equipment has “pulled away” from the wall. Repeat the test with a force F 2 of 900 N for 5 min 10 s on the lowest bar. 6 Instructions for use For retractable equipment, assembly instructions shall be provided. 7 Marking Marking shall
29、 comply with EN 913, and in addition shall include the following: a) name of product; and b) a statement advising the maximum number of users (maximum safe load).Page 4 EN 12346:1998 BSI 02-1999 Figure 2 Determination of pre-installation strengthPage 5 EN 12346:1998 BSI 02-1999 Figure 3 Determinatio
