Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation-of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
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. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(I EC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
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.
International Standard IS0 899-2 was prepared by Technical Committee
lSO/TC 61, Plastics, Sub-Committee SC 2, Mechanical properties.
Together with IS0 899-1, it cancels and replaces IS0 899:1981 and
IS0 6602:1985, which have been technically revised.
IS0 899 consists of the following parts, under the general title
P/as tics - Determination of creep behaviour:
- Part 1: Tensile creep
. - Part 2: Flexural creep by three-point loading
Annexes A and B of this part of IS0 899 are for information only.
