This International Standard specifies methods to carry out vibration tests on complete, filled transport packages orunit loads using sinusoidal excitation at fixed frequency. These tests may be used to assess the performance ofpackages and unit loads in terms of the strength or the protection that they offer to their contents when subjected tolow frequency vibration. These tests may be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects of lowfrequency vibration or as a part of a sequence of tests designed to measure the ability of a package or unit load towithstand a distribution system that includes a vibration hazard at low frequency or repetitive shocks.
