Furniture - Seating - Part 3: Determination of stability (Domestic)
This Malaysian Standard specifies methods for the determination of the stability of all types of domestic seating that can be used by adults. For seating that can be converted into beds, this standard applies only to the seating configuration.Chair stability can be determined by either the experimental or the calculative method. Thesemethods are compatible in that they apply the same forces at the same positions. If the resultof the calculative method is uncertain or marginal the result should be checked, if possible, by the experimental method.The calculative method is invalid for chairs, which visibly flex under horizontal loads and forthe tests specified in 8.2, 8.3, 8.4 and 8.5.
