Overview
prEN 1288-5 rev (aligned with ISO/DIS 1288-5:2014) specifies a laboratory method for determining the bending strength of glass in building by the coaxial double-ring test on flat specimens with small test surface areas. This document covers test principle, required apparatus, specimen dimensions, test procedure, evaluation and reporting. It is intended for comparative strength assessment of glass types (excluding edge effects) and is not suitable for patterned glass or for direct use in structural design calculations.
Key Topics and Requirements
- Test principle: A circular or square, plane-parallel specimen is supported on a concentric supporting ring and loaded through a concentric loading ring. Bending strength is calculated from the breaking load, thickness and geometry.
- Apparatus:
- Bending testing machine with stepless, controlled load application and a load measuring device (±2 % accuracy).
- Coaxial loading device including hardened-steel loading and supporting rings, silicone rubber spacer and centring features.
- Measuring instruments for specimen diameter/side (±1 mm) and thickness (±0.01 mm).
- Loading/support ring options: Several ring-radius combinations are defined (e.g., R30, R45, R60, R105) with matching specimen sizes and minimum thicknesses.
- Specimens: Circular or square specimens with defined tolerances for flatness (0.1 mm) and parallelism (2 % of thickness). Minimum thickness depends on expected bending strength (guidance provided when strength unknown).
- Procedure controls: Temperature, humidity, specimen positioning, loading rate and residual stress assessment are specified to ensure repeatability.
- Evaluation: Bending strength (σb) is calculated from the maximum load at failure, specimen geometry and Poisson’s ratio (guidance: μ ≈ 0.23 for soda‑lime silicate glass).
- Limitations: Intended for comparative testing only (see ISO 1288‑1), not for pattern glass, and edge effects are excluded.
Applications and Users
- Glass manufacturers and fabricators for product development and quality control.
- Accredited testing laboratories performing mechanical strength characterization.
- R&D teams evaluating new glass compositions or coatings.
- Certification bodies and compliance officers needing standardized comparative test data. Note: Structural engineers may consult results for comparative assessment but should not use these values directly for structural design without additional design-specific standards.
Related Standards
- ISO 1288-1 - Fundamentals of testing glass (context and limitations).
- Other parts of ISO 1288 (Parts 1–4) covering alternative bending tests (large-area double-ring, four‑point bending, channel-shaped glass).
- ISO 16293-1 - Definitions and physical/mechanical properties for soda‑lime silicate glass.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO
member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical
committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has
the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in
liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 3.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this part of ISO 1288 may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
