31、shall be carried out with at least one test sample. 4.2 Aboveground swimming pool with frame-supporting walls 4.2.1 Resistance to horizontal deformation 4.2.1.1 Requirements On completion of the test defined in 4.2.1.2, the swimming pool shall not collapse and shall meet the requirements set forth i
32、n EN 16582-1:2015, 4.5. 4.2.1.2 Test method Install the swimming pool. Fill it with water. Place a 400 mm long, 100 mm wide angle bracket on the top of the wall at the most unfavourable place. Exert a horizontal force of 400 N, 50 mm from the top of the angle bracket for 5 s (see Figure 3). The forc
33、e shall be applied at the appropriate position on the angle bracket to ensure that the force is exerted horizontally onto the top of the wall. BS EN 16582-3:2015EN 16582-3:2015 (E) 9 Dimensions in millimetres Figure 3 Resistance to horizontal deformation 4.2.2 Resistance to vertical deformation 4.2.
34、2.1 Requirements On completion of the test defined in 4.2.2.2, the entire product shall not suffer any permanent deformation affecting its structural integrity. 4.2.2.2 Test method Install the swimming pool. Fill it with water. If the width of the top wall is 50mm, apply a force of 1500 N vertically
35、 in the axis of the wall, for 5 min. The test shall be performed on a 300 mm diameter disc (see Figure 4 case 1). If the width of the top wall is 50 mm, apply a force of 500 N vertically in the axis of the wall, for 5 min. The test shall be performed on a 300 mm diameter disc (see Figure 4 case 2).

37、stance tests for horizontal deformation (4.2.1.2) and vertical deformation (4.2.2.2). 4.2.3.2 Requirements On completion of the test defined in 4.2.3.3, the pool shall not burst and shall not suffer any permanent deformation affecting the products structural integrity. 4.2.3.3 Test methods Fill the
38、swimming pool with water. Bring a plastic cylindrical barrel with a diameter between 400 mm and 500 mm, a capacity of 120 l and a total weight of 120 kg including ballast, in the vertical position, perpendicular to the wall. Tip it into the water. The drop height, compared to the water level recomme
39、nded by the manufacturer, is mm600400+(see Figure 5). Position the central axis of the barrel perpendicular to the inner edge (on the pool side) of the coping. Apply pressure on the upper edge of the barrel so as to tip the barrel into the swimming pool under its own inertia, at the most unfavourabl
40、e point.

41、 walls 4.3.1 Capacity to stop an overflow 4.3.1.1 Requirement On completion of the tests described in 4.3.1.2 and 4.3.1.3, the swimming pool with self-stabilizing walls shall not collapse or empty suddenly. 4.3.1.2 Pool overflow Install the pool with self-stabilizing walls on flat horizontal ground
42、(maximum slope allowed is 5 mm/m); Fill the pool with self-stabilizing walls until it overflows with a flow rate of 2,5 m3/h minimum and allow it to overflow for 1 min. BS EN 16582-3:2015EN 16582-3:2015 (E) 12 4.3.1.3 Behaviour test of the wall under load Stop filling the swimming pool and restore t
43、he level to that recommended by the installation manual (if no other indications are given by the manufacturer, fill the swimming pool under the tube to the maximum permissible height); Place on the tube a 0,50 m long overflow channel with a minimum opening of 0,25 m (adapted to the tube size) balla
44、sted with two 40 kg weights on each side (one on the inside of the pool and the other on the outside); Maintain the load for 5 s at the tubes maximum deflection, making sure that the test weights do not come into contact with the base of the pool at any time during the test. The pool shall not colla
45、pse resulting in a total loss of water and shall not become unusable; Lift the load up immediately after 5 s making sure that the loading device does not interfere during this operation. NOTE In the case of swimming pools fitted with a strut, this test is performed at the most unfavourable point. 4.
46、3.2 Inflatable compartment The swimming pool with self-stabilizing walls generally comprises an air-inflatable upper tube. In this case, all of the air inlets provided for inflation shall be fitted with caps permanently secured on an accessible part of each inflatable compartment of the swimming poo
47、l with self-stabilizing walls. Once this part is inflated, the caps located inside the swimming pool with self-stabilizing walls shall be able to be pushed back inside the upper part so that they do not protrude from the surface by more than 5 mm. The caps of the inflation ports should not be able t
48、o become detached and should be protected against accidental removal. Check valves shall be fitted in order to prevent an instantaneous deflation. 4.3.3 Stability in the event of deflation of the upper tube 4.3.3.1 Requirement On completion of the test described in 4.3.3.2, the swimming pool with se
49、lf-stabilizing walls shall not collapse. 4.3.3.2 Test method Install the pool on flat horizontal ground (maximum slope allowed is 5 mm/m). Fill the pool with water up to the level normally recommended in the installation manual. Open the inflatable part by its normal air release device until it is apparently fully deflated. 4.3.4 Bursting strength 4.3.4.1 Requirement On completion of the test defined in 4.3.4.2, the swimming pool with self-stabilizing walls shall not burst and shall not present
