Hinge-joint ladders are determined to be used by one person at a time. 5.2 Decking component If supplied, the decking component sh

34、all be secured against unintentional movement and shall have an anti-skid working surface. It shall be designed so as to be unable to slip and tilt on the ladder. 5.3 Ladder hinged in the longitudinal direction The ladder shall have at least one fixed lockable position for utilisation. NOTE The stor

35、age position (folded) is not required to be lockable. 6 Test methods 6.1 General General provisions, see EN 131-2. 6.2 Tests method for ladders hinged in the longitudinal direction 6.2.1 Principle Ladders conforming to 3.1 shall comply with the testing requirements of EN 131-2. However the ladder st

36、rength test shall be modified in accordance with 6.2.2. A cyclic test of the hinge joints shall be conducted in accordance with 6.2.3. When the ladder is designed for use in the platform position, the tests indicated in 6.2.4 shall be conducted with the decking component in the platform position. 6.

37、2.2 Ladder strength test The test shall be carried out on the fully extended ladder A pre-load of 500 N shall be applied for a duration of one minute. The position of the ladder after removal of the pre-load is the origin for measurement. A test load F of 1 100 N (see Figure 11) shall be applied for

38、 a duration of one minute. The measurement shall be conducted one minute after removal of the test load. The permanent deformation f of the ladder shall not exceed 0,2 % of the distance l between the supports. For standing ladders, the test load F shall be determined by the equation cosN6002 =F wher

39、e = manufacturers designed angle of use (Permitted angle: min 60, max. 70).

40、 These tests are conducted on hinge joints with an automatic locking device. To test their operation, hinge joints (lateral and longitudinal hinge joint ladders) shall withstand the cyclic tests. A pair of hinge joints comprising the maximum number of positions shall be subjected to a series of 4 00

41、0 cycles from the closed position to the fully open position. The hinge joint shall be locked and unlocked in each of its positions during the course of each cycle at the normal utilisation speed. No oil shall be added to the hinge joints during the tests. Requirement: Automatic locking function sha

42、ll operate with no manual intervention for a duration of 4 000 cycles. 6.2.4 Test of the ladder in the platform position 6.2.4.1 General The tests shall be conducted on the complete assembly of decking components with the ladder in the plat-form position. 6.2.4.2 Strength test of the decking compone

43、nt Carry out the test with a load placed in the most unfavourable position at the centre of each decking compo-nent. The test force of 1 000 N is distributed over a 200 mm 200 mm rigid steel plate. The weight of the steel plate is included in the test force. Deformation under load shall be less than

44、 or equal to 1 %of the decking component length. Residual deformation shall be less than or equal to 0,1 % of the decking component length. 6.2.4.3 Safety test of the ladder Carry out a test with a load placed at the centre of the decking component. The load is distributed over a 200 mm 200 mm rigid

45、 steel plate and is equivalent to 1,5 times the maximum load. Deformation under load shall be less than or equal to 2 % of the assembly of decking components length. A test with a load equal to two times the maximum total load is then conducted. The product shall remain functional after this test. T

46、he maximum load shall be stated by the manufacturer and shall not be less than 120 kg and not more than 150 kg.

47、 750 N distributed over a 200 mm 200 mm rigid steel plate located on the side of the deck-ing component. The edge of the plate is aligned with the edge of the decking component. The plate shall be centred in the longitudinal direction of the decking component (see Figure 12). A horizontal force F of

48、 300 N shall be applied to the decking component in the most unfavourable direction. The ladder shall not topple.
