BS EN ISO 5912:2020 pdf download -Camping tents – Requirements and test methods If the fabric requires a pre-conditioning (due to soaking behaviour of seams) it shall be made in accordance with 8.3. If additional preparation work (e.g. seam sealing) is recommended by the manufacturer, it should be carried out in accordance with information supplied by the manufacturer. 6.2 Requirements for components 6.2.1 Frame 6.2.1.1 General All metal parts shall be such that there is no change at the end of the test in accordance with 8.2, except a minor discolouration. In the case of enamelled or coated frame components, there shall be no infiltration under the varnish of more than 0,5 mm in accordance with ISO 9227. The frame parts shall be clearly marked to facilitate the pitching, the only exception to this being, if the frame parts for a camping tent can only be assembled in one form or a detailed construction plan is available. If two frame components are fitted together, the lower component shall not become detached when subjected to twice its own weight in a vertical position. The tubular connection of the frame components to be fitted together shall have a minimum length of two times the outside diameter. 6.2.1.2 Edges and corners Edges and corners accessible during assembly and use shall be free from burrs and/or sharp edges. Test in accordance with 8.6.1. 6.2.1.3 Tubular components, holes and gaps Tubular components, holes and gaps accessible during pitching, striking and use shall be covered if a 7 mm or 12 mm test probe can be pushed into them in any direction to a depth of more than 10 mm when tested in accordance with the requirements in 8.6.2. 6.2.1.4 Shear and squeeze points Shear and squeeze points that are created only during setting up or folding are acceptable, providing that the user can be assumed to be in control of his/her movements and to be able to cease applying the force immediately on experiencing pain. T he edges of shear and squeeze points shall be rounded or chamfered. There shall be no accessible shear and squeeze points created by parts of the frame assembly operated by mechanical mechanisms, e.g. mechanical springs, gas lifts. There shall be no accessible shear or squeeze points created by loads applied during normal use (this hazard is best prevented by the use of automatic locking systems). Test in accordance with...
