1、CAN/CGSB-44.229-2017Supersedes CAN/CGSB-44.229-2008National Standard of CanadaCanadian General Standards BoardInterconnecting panel systems and supported componentsThe CANADIAN GENERAL STANDARDS BOARD (CGSB), under whose auspices this standard has been developed, is a government agency within Public
2、 Services and Procurement Canada. CGSB is engaged in the production of voluntary standards in a wide range of subject areas through the media of standards committees and the consensus process. The standards committees are composed of representatives of relevant interests including producers, consume
3、rs and other users, retailers, governments, educational institutions, technical, professional and trade societies, and research and testing organizations. Any given standard is developed on the consensus of views expressed by such representatives.CGSB has been accredited by the Standards Council of
4、Canada as a national standards-development organization. The standards that it develops and offers as National Standards of Canada conform to the criteria and procedures established for this purpose by the Standards Council of Canada. In addition to standards it publishes as National Standards of Ca
5、nada, CGSB produces standards to meet particular needs, in response to requests from a variety of sources in both the public and private sectors. Both CGSB standards and CGSB national standards are developed in conformance with the policies described in the CGSB Policy and Procedures Manual for the
6、Development and Maintenance of Standards.CGSB standards are subject to review and revision to ensure that they keep abreast of technological progress. CGSB will initiate the review of this standard within five years of the date of publication. Suggestions for their improvement, which are always welc
7、ome, should be brought to the notice of the standards committees concerned. Changes to standards are issued either as separate amendment sheets or in new editions of standards.An up-to-date listing of CGSB standards, including details on latest issues and amendments, and ordering instructions, is fo
8、und in the CGSB Catalogue at our Web site www.tpsgc-pwgsc.gc.ca/ongc-cgsb/index-eng.html along with more information about CGSB products and services.Although the intended primary application of this standard is stated in its Scope, it is important to note that it remains the responsibility of the u
9、sers of the standard to judge its suitability for their particular purpose.The testing and evaluation of a product against this standard may require the use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous.

29、e units. Panels may have the capability for management of electrical and communications wiring as well as acoustical properties.This standard also provides dimensional and adjustment requirements that respect generally accepted ergonomics guidelines, reports or standards, such as those of CAN/CSA-IS
30、O 9241-5-00(R2016), BIFMA G1-2013, CAESAR FINAL REPORT Vol. I and II, June 2002 as its source of anthropometric data. Designing products to meet the dimensional needs of the 5th percentile female to the 95th percentile male will accommodate a large number of users. It is important, however, to reali
31、ze that furniture for the above range may not accommodate at least 5 % of the users for any particular dimension. In order to accommodate user dimensions outside the 5th to 95th percentile ranges, it may be necessary to purchase additional products to meet unique individual needs. The dimensional an
32、d adjustment requirements aim to address the estimated needs of the 5th to 95th percentile of adult office workers when in the seated position.The selected methods for measuring interconnecting panels and panel-supported components and for assessing their performance are based on the actual field an
33、d product-testing experience of the members of the Canadian General Standards Board Committee on Interconnecting Panel Systems and Supported Components.Quantities and dimensions used in this standard are given in metric units with imperial equivalents shown in brackets where appropriate. The metric
34、units shall be regarded as official in the event of dispute.The testing and evaluation of a product against this standard may require the use of materials and/or equipment that could be hazardous. This document does not purport to address all the safety aspects associated with its use. Anyone using
35、this standard has the responsibility to consult the appropriate authorities and to establish appropriate health and safety practices in conjunction with any applicable regulatory requirements prior to its use.2 Normative referencesThe following normative documents contain provisions that, through re
