ISO 8442-5:2004 specifies the sharpness and edge retention of knives which are produced for professional and domestic use in the preparation of food of all kinds, specifically those knives intended for hand use.
Powered blade instruments of any kind are excluded.
Generally these types of knife are manufactured with blades of either plain edge design or with edges incorporating particular features to enhance or optimize aspects of cutting ability.
The following two types of knife blade are suitable for the cutting test.
Type A edges: cutting edges which can be resharpened by the user and edges with a pitch greater than 1mm;
Type B edges: cutting edges which are not intended to be resharpened on a steel.
Whilst these knives are predominantly manufactured with blades made from various grades of heat treated steels, the testing of knives of any construction or blade material is not precluded providing that the test criteria are met.
The principle of the testing is to reproduce a cutting action, by forward and reverse strokes, against a pack of synthetic test medium under controlled parameters.

This part of ISO 15638 is based on a (multiple) service provider (4.39) oriented approach.
ISO 15638 has been developed for use in the context of regulated commercial freight vehicles. There is nothing however to prevent a jurisdiction extending or adapting the scope to include other types of regulated vehicles, as it deems appropriate.
NOTE The specific ‘approval’ procedures for specific application services are a matter for the jurisdiction (4.24) and are outside the scope of this (or any) part of 15638. However, approval authorities (4.6) are encouraged to use the guidance of ISO 17000 and ISO/IEC 17065:2012 when developing and implementing such procedures.

ISO 20492-1 specifies two methods for testing the durability of edge seals of insulating glass units by means of climate tests: the final frost/dew point method and the moisture-penetration index method. This document is applicable to pre-assembled, permanently sealed, insulating glass units with one or two cavities, and with capillary tubes that are intentionally left open to equalize pressure inside the unit with the surrounding atmosphere.
This document is not applicable to sealed, insulating glass units that contain a spandrel glass coating.

ISO 20492-4 specifies methods for testing the edge seal strength, and partially testing the water and gas permeation through sealants, of glass insulating units. Other parts of ISO 20492 designate two approaches to the standardization of insulating glass units. The methods in ISO 20492-4 are applicable only to approach 2, as defined and used in the other parts of ISO 20492.
In cases where there is no protection against direct ultraviolet radiation at the edges, such as structural sealant glazing systems, it is necessary that additional European technical specifications be followed. See References [4] and [5].

Määräpäivä: 2026-03-19
This document defines the assessment of endurable longitudinal compressive force (LCF) of a vehicle. The endurable longitudinal compressive force is a parameter depending on the vehicle design. It is used to estimate the risk of derailment of a vehicle as a result of being subjected to longitudinal compressive force, under operating conditions.
NOTE 1 As operating conditions can vary in several aspects (infrastructure, train configurations etc.), this document defines uniform assessments of endurable longitudinal compressive force per vehicle in specific operating conditions. The main assessment of endurable longitudinal compressive force for conventional trains is derived from UIC 530-2:2011, which is based on practical tests performed in ERRI-B12. Assessments of endurable longitudinal compressive force for high-capacity trains in this document are required by the methodology of IRS 40421. IRS 40421 assesses operational train parameters.
This document applies to the following types of vehicles:
- single wagons;
- permanently coupled units with standard ends between the vehicles;
- permanently coupled units with diagonal buffers and screw couplers between the vehicles;
- permanently coupled units with a bar coupler between the vehicles;
- articulated units with 2-axle bogies;
- wagons with 3-axle bogies;
- low-floor wagons with eight or more axles (e.g. rolling road wagon);
- vehicles with centre couplers;
- railbound construction and maintenance machines as defined in EN 14033-1:2017.
NOTE 2 This document defines the acceptance process to be followed by vehicles that are operated in a way that high longitudinal compressive force occur in the trains due to their operational environment (e.g. train composition, brake mode, track layout).
The following vehicles are not in the scope of this document:
- locomotives and passenger rolling stocks;
- vehicles that are only operated in passenger trains.
NOTE 3 Locomotives, passenger rolling stocks and vehicles operated in passenger trains only are not in the scope of this document as they either are subject to low longitudinal compressive force in operation or have sufficient endurable longitudinal compressive force due to their axle load.
Acceptance criteria and test conditions as well as conditions for simulation are defined in this document. Conditions for dispensation of the assessment of the endurable longitudinal compressive force are also defined in this document.
This document applies principally to vehicles which operate without restrictions on tracks with a gauge of 1 435 mm in Europe.
NOTE 4 The influence on railway systems using other gauges is not sufficiently understood to extend the scope of this document to gauges other than 1 435 mm.
NOTE 5 For wagons with centre couplers, a need for assessment of derailment risk due to Longitudinal Forces on other gauges (1 524 mm, 1 600 mm, 1 668 mm) has been expressed. The influence on railway systems using other gauges is not sufficiently understood. This document only introduces some notions to assess it independently from the gauge.

This document sets out a framework to replace and/or complement physical tests with virtual tests by introducing simulation credibility for a given railway application. This covers simulation development, use, and management.
Users of this document can be:
- simulation engineers or organizations and their subcontractors,
- standardization working groups to introduce simulations in their standards or
- technical assessors and conformity assessment bodies.
This document provides guidance, particularly when simulations are not yet defined. Where applicable, this document can be used in conjunction with existing standards pertaining to the use of simulations.
If simulation is already recognized in existing domain-specific standards, this document does not modify the requirements of those standards. However, it may assist in future improvements and harmonization. It does not provide domain-specific guidance on applying simulations.
For the use of technologies including, but not limited to, artificial intelligence, model-scale testing, and distributed computing, relevant potential technology based risks can arise.
