is less.

shall not show any detoriation and any

residual deformation more than 5mm after 15 minutes IS 2202 PT-1
of unloading and the initial deflection also shall not
be more than 50 mm

there shall not be any permanent deformation of the

fixing or any other part of the doorset in IS 2202 PT-1
hindering its normal working after the test.

general planeness shall not be more than 1.0 mm. The

recovery of the original size after subjecting the door IS 2202 PT-1
to high and low humidity shall be at least 90 percent
of the change in dimensions.

shall have no delamination at the end of the

test. This test shall be carried out on door shutters IS 2202 PT-1
only after they pass in glue adhesion test.

the required load to withdraw the screw

completely shall not be less than 1 000 N. On
withdrawal, there shall be no visible damage to the IS 2202 PT-1
surface either by delamination or extra chipping of
at the points of withdrawal.
