Standard Performance Requirements for Plastic Chaise Lounges, With or Without Moving Arms, With Adjustable Backs, for Outdoor Use

Importancia y uso:

4.1 Tests and criteria as outlined determine the overall usability and stability of chairs in an environment simulating the conditions of use.

4.2 Tests simulate two types of surfaces:

4.2.1 Smooth surfaces such as linoleum, wet pool decks, etc. The glass testing base (see Fig. 5) is used to simulate this surface.

FIG. 5 Glass Testing Base

Note 1: 
A = poly(methyl methacrylate) 0.25 ± 0.03 in. (6 ± 0.1 mm) thickness,
B = AC exterior glue fir plywood 0.75 ± 0.1 in. (19 ± 2 mm) or greater thickness,
C = polypropylene microfoam 0.7± 0.01 lb/ft³ (11 ± 0.2 kg/m³) density and 0.13 ± 0.01 in. (3 ± 0.03 mm) thickness, and
D = glass/tempered 0.38 ± 0.04 in. (10 ± 0.1 mm) thickness.

Note 2: A, B,C, and D are sheets roughly 48 in. (1219 mm) on a side or greater to accommodate the length of the chaise lounge.

4.2.2 Rough surfaces such as wooden decks, outdoor natural surfaces, etc. The plywood testing base (see Fig. 6) is used to simulate this surface.

FIG. 6 Plywood Testing Base

Note 1: 
A = poly(methyl methacrylate) 0.25 ± 0.03 in. (6 ± 0.1 mm) thickness, and
B = AC exterior glue fir plywood 0.75 ± 0.1 in. (19 ± 2 mm) or greater thickness.

Note 2: A and B are sheets roughly 48 in. (1219 mm) on a side or greater to accommodate the length of the chaise lounge.
