This European Standard specifies rules for load testing, documentation and evaluation of test results in the field of non mechanical temporary work items.

NOTE This standard is provided for use by all working groups of CEN/TC53 as a basis for standards which include testing. While this standard provides general rules, it is anticipated that where special requirements are necessary, they will be specified in the individual standard, for example the details of the test procedure.
