DIN EN 14749:2016-06 EN 14749:2016 (E) 5 Introduction With this revision the included test
31、 methods have been as far as possible taken out of the standard and referenced to: EN 16122:2012, Domestic and non-domestic storage furniture Test methods for the determination of strength, durability and stability. This standard was prepared in order to provide assurance that domestic storage furni
32、ture and kitchen-worktops comply with the given requirements and are safe. The intention of this European Standard is the prevention of serious injury through normal use, as well as foreseeable misuse. It cannot ensure that structural failure will not eventually occur as a result of habitual misuse.
33、 Co-ordinating sizes for kitchen furniture (including kitchen-worktops) kitchen appliances, sinks and decorative panels are covered by EN 1116, Kitchen furniture Co-ordinating sizes for kitchen furniture and kitchen appliances. DIN EN 14749:2016-06 EN 14749:2016 (E) 6 1 Scope This European Standard
34、specifies safety requirements and test methods for all types of kitchen and bathroom storage units and domestic storage furniture and their components. It does not apply to non-domestic storage, office storage, industrial storage, catering equipment, retail storage and industrial storage lockers. It
35、 does not apply to units covered by EN 71-1, Safety of toys Part 1: Mechanical and physical properties and EN 60065, Audio, video and similar electronic apparatus Safety requirements (IEC 60065). It does not include requirements for the resistance to ageing, degradation, flammability and electrical
36、safety. Safety that is dependent upon the structure of the building is not included, e.g. the strength of wall hanging units includes only the cabinet and its components including wall attachment devices. The wall and the wall attachments are not included. Annex A (normative) contains additional tes
37、t methods. Annex B (informative) contains a guide to testing of units and components according to this document. Annex C (informative) contains an example of loading of wall hanging units. Annex D (informative) contains a method for calculation of vertical and horizontal acting forces. 2 Normative r
