6.5.3 Static load test
6.5.3.1 Static load test on the seat surface
A small seat loading pad (see 6.1.6) is placed on the seat and a load of 1 300 N is applied vertically downwards 10 times at a distance of 175 mm from the rear edge of the seat, each load being held for at least 10 s. This is shown in Figure 9.
