18、002:3)E( ISO 2002 r llAithgs reservde iii Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member
19、body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electr
20、otechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
21、Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 12777 may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all
22、 such patent rights. International Standard ISO 12777-3 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 51, Pallets for unit load method of materials handling. ISO 12777 consists of the following parts, under the general title Methods of test for pallet joints: Part 1: Determination of bending resistance
23、 of pallet nails, other dowel-type fasteners and staples Part 2: Determination of withdrawal and head pull-through resistance of pallet nails and staples Part 3: Determination of strength of pallet joints ENISO127773:2002iiiISO -77721:3)E(2002 vi ISO 2002 Ar llithgr seresvde Introduction This part o
24、f ISO 12777 was developed using methods that enable the user to select from a range of tests that best fits the particular problem or area of the pallet under analysis. Some are suitable for routine quality control and some are designed for laboratory use. Where characteristics of wood used in palle
25、t joints are required then ISO 3133 and related standards as given in clause 2 may be used. In general the tests if used as routine quality control tests only require the measurement of ultimate load, while if the tests are undertaken as prototype tests in a laboratory, then they also require measur
26、ement of deflection or distortion in the joint plotted during the application of the load.

27、pecifies methods of determining the resistance of pallet joints primarily to static load by determining the strength and stiffness of nailed or stapled joints, wood to wood, wood to wood-based materials, wood to plastics or plastics to plastics. This part of ISO 12777 is applicable to joints with al
28、l types of nails up to in diameter (including plain shank, helical, annular ring, barbed and twisted) and with staples. 2 Normative references The following normative documents contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this part of ISO 12777.

NOTE Samples from the same board may achieve this balance of density and grain

Elsewhere the specimens shall be free from major defects which could lead to unrepresentative failure in the timber. 4.2.4 Moisture conten
