IEC TR 62899-550-1:2022(E), which is a Technical Report, provides a framework for evaluating the mechanical and thermal durability of printed and/or flexible electronics components and products. This includes the bending test, torsion test, stretching test, steady heat test as well as the thermal cycle test. These are typical conditions that are easily encountered in daily life for printed and/or flexible electronics components and products.
This document gives guidance for use for technical committees in the preparation of consistent standards relating to the quality assessment of printed and/or flexible electronics components and products. Consistent standards for durability testing will help users, including businesses, developers, vendors, and end users to select suitable methods for durability testing and make consistent test procedures for printed electronics.

ISO 6506-2:2017 specifies methods of direct and indirect verification of testing machines used for determining Brinell hardness in accordance with ISO 6506‑1 and also specifies when these two types of verification have to be performed.
The direct verification involves checking that individual machine performance parameters fall within specified limits whereas the indirect verification utilizes hardness measurements of reference blocks, calibrated in accordance with ISO 6506‑3, to check the machine's overall performance.
If a testing machine is also to be used for other methods of hardness testing, it has to be verified independently for each method.
ISO 6506-2:2017 is applicable to both fixed location and portable hardness testing machines. For machines that are incapable of satisfying the specified force-time profile, the direct verification of force and testing cycle can be modified by the use of Annex B.

This document specifies a test method for determining the flex resistance of rubber- or plastics‑coated
fabrics in the folded condition. The test method is applicable only to products which can be clamped in
the test apparatus used and to products with which the fold made in the test specimen can be caused to
move back and forth along the specimen during the test.
The appearance of the test specimen, after completion of either the flex number (see 3.1) or a specified
number of flex cycles, is taken as a measure of the flex resistance in the folded condition.

This Technical Specification gives test methods for prefabricated timber stairs. These stairs are  made from timber and/or wood-based materials.
The methods included in this document can also be used for single components used in stairs (e.g. steps, handrails, balusters, …).
This document  does not consider the overall structure design of these elements. Stairs that are designed to contribute to the overall stability of the works or to the strength of the structure are not covered by this standard.
The surfaces of the timber elements may be exposed or covered by finishes.
NOTE 1   Where stairs are supplied with a finish or covering, some basic characteristics will not be covered by this standard and references should be made to the appropriate product standard (e.g. colour fastness of carpet finishes)
NOTE 2   Where the term "stair" is used in this document, it may also apply to individual element or component where appropriate
Tests can be carried out on a complete fully assembled system according to manufacturer installation instructions or on individual components.
A fully assembled stair test cannot be used to evaluate individual components.
There is no particular hierarchy of sequences or the need to carry out all the tests.

- a confirmation that the performance properties of the testing machine achieve the limits given for a specified class.
NOTE This part of ISO 7500 addresses the static calibration and verification of the force-measuring systems. The calibration values are not necessarily valid for high-speed or dynamic testing applications. Further information regarding dynamic effects is given in the Bibliography.
