Abstract

Sets out methods for horizontal impact tests on complete filled transport packages, using the inclined plane test and the pendulum test.
Identical with and reproduced from ISO 2244:2000.

Scope

This International Standard specifies methods of horizontal impact testing (horizontal or inclined plane test and pendulum test) on a complete, filled transport package or a unit load. The test may be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects of horizontal impact or as part of a sequence of tests designed to measure the ability of a package or a unit load to withstand a distribution system that includes a horizontal impact hazard.
