This International Standard specifies a method for determining the shear strength of wood-to-wood adhesive bonds, with a standard specimen loaded in compression and under specified conditions of preparation, conditioning and testing. This method is intended for testing only those adhesives used in bonding wood to wood.
NOTE 1 To carry out this test, basic information regarding certain variables is needed by the testing laboratory (see annex A).
NOTE 2 This method is not intended for use in testing manufactured products.
