scope:

This European Standard specifies test methods for the safety, strength and durability of bunk beds and high beds. The loads and forces in the strength and durability tests apply to beds with an internal length greater than 140 cm and a maximum bed base width of 120 cm. This European standard does not apply to bunk beds and high beds for special purposes, including but not limited to prison, military and fire brigades. The tests are designed to be applied to a bed that is fully assembled and ready for use. The test results are only valid for the article tested. When the test results are to be applied to other similar articles, the test sample shall be representative of the production model. The corresponding safety requirements are given in prEN 747-1 rev.
