Scope

This Standard sets out the method for assessing whether a horizontal or nearly horizontal infant sleep surface exhibits excessive compression when subjected to a constant force applied through a standard load pad. This Standard was designed for products specifically intended for infant use. However, the test method outlined here is not appropriate for infant slings, hammocks and other such funicular devices that support the infant by suspension. While the test method is likewise not appropriate for products that can only hold the infant in an upright sitting position, it may be useful for assessing some baby capsules used in motor vehicles.
