This European Standard specifies test methods for the safety, strength and durability of bunk beds and high beds for domestic and non-domestic use. The loads and forces in the strength and durability tests apply to beds with an internal length greater than 140 cm and a maximum bed base width of 120 cm.

The tests are designed to be applied to a bed that is fully assembled and ready for use. The applicable safety requirements are given in EN 747‑1.
