This document lists the terminology and common test methods used by manufacturers and laboratories to quantify the performance of a foam material. It also and gives information to users or buyers of these products to make an educated assessment of the relevance of the physical characteristics between various products offered to them.
This document summarizes/gives information about the tests for
— polyurethane foams – typically polyether (polyether polyurethane foam) or polyester based (polyester polyurethane foam) – produced by either slabstock (slabstock foam) or moulded foam process, and
— latex foams produced by either the Dunlop process or Talalay process.
The physical properties addressed in this document are
a) resilience,
b) hysteresis,
c) support/SAG factor,
d) density,
e) hardness,
f) compression set,
g) tensile strength,
h) tear strength,
i) air flow/permeability,
j) resistance to fatigue, and
k) microbial resistance.
NOTE The test methods presented in this document do not necessarily simulate conditions of use in practice. The use of resulting data is therefore restricted to a broad comparative assessment between different foam products.
This document addresses only the characterization and performance of foam materials used in APTIs. It does not address the design, construction method or other factors relating to the final clinical efficiency of the product.
Test methods for characterizing the physical properties of any coverings, or the effects of any coverings on the physical properties of the foams, are not addressed in this document.

This document specifies a range of requirements and recommendations for the elements of construction, building assemblies, components, fittings and products that relate to the design and constructional aspects of usability and accessibility of buildings, i.e. access to buildings, circulation within buildings, egress from buildings during normal conditions, and evacuation in the event of a fire.
This document also applies to the common spaces in multi-unit residential buildings. Recommendations regarding residential units are given in Annex A.
This document also contains provisions with respect to outdoor features directly concerned with access to a building or a group of buildings from a relevant site boundary, or between such a group of buildings within a common site. This document does not deal with elements of the external environment, such as public open spaces, whose function is self-contained and unrelated to the use of a specific building.
This document is applicable to new buildings and new work in existing buildings.
This document introduces the concept of ‘exceptional considerations for existing buildings’ for situations where it is exceptionally difficult to meet the requirements specified and, thus, impossible to provide full accessibility. By means of ‘exceptional considerations for existing buildings’, an acceptable, though restricted, level of accessibility is specified. An exceptional consideration for existing buildings is not to be applied in other situations or invoked in an unjustified manner, or as an excuse for not achieving a higher level of accessibility, where this is economically and/or technically feasible.
The dimensions stated in this document, relevant to the use of wheelchairs, are related to the footprint of commonly used wheelchair sizes and users as specified in ISO 7176-5 and ISO/TR 13570-2, 800 mm wide and 1 300 mm long.
This document is primarily written for adults with disabilities, but it includes some recommendations on specific accessibility needs of children.

This document presents guidelines for the design and development of cognitively accessible systems, including products and services and built environments.
This document is relevant to mainstream systems as well as those designed specifically for people with disability.
Within the broad field of accessibility, this document is limited to guidance related to cognitive accessibility.
NOTE 1 It acknowledges, however, that diverse sensory perceptions can impact cognitive accessibility.
NOTE 2 While the following guidance in this document can benefit all users, it is included here because failure to follow it could lead to barriers that would prevent some potential users from being able to use the system at all.
This document is relevant to all types of systems. However, some particular recommendations can only be followed for some types of systems:
— Some of the guidance is relevant to a fixed system (e.g. a non-computerized consumer product or a user manual);
— Some of the guidance applies to systems containing some level of computer-based processing (e.g. a microwave oven or an ICT-system);
— Some of the guidance applies to systems that use advanced computer processing that supports individualization (e.g. an application in a smart phone);
— Some guidance applies to combinations of the above.
