This International Standard specifies a method for carrying out a vibration test on a complete, filled transport package. This test may be used to assess the performance of a package in terms of its strength or the protection that it offers to its con-tent when it is subjected to vibration. It may be performed either as a single test to investigate the effects of vibration or as part of a sequence of tests designed to measure the ability of a package to withstand a distribution system that includes a vibration hazard.
NOTE — Other methods of vibration testing of packages are being examined and will be considered for inclusion in this International Standard at a l?ter date.
There are methods in use which reproduce the vibrating environment, but it would be desirable to have a method more closely representative of the environment, and if such a method were developed it would be scientifically preferable to the present procedure.
