ANSI/BIFMA X6.5-2022 PDF

This standard provides a common basis for evaluating the safety, durability and structural
performance of home office and occasional-use desk, table and storage products intended for
use in commercial and home offices. It provides test methods and performance requirements for
home office and occasional-use desk, table and storage products. These products may be
completely assembled, partly assembled or totally unassembled (often known as RTA or "ready
to assemble"), when they leave the control of the manufacturer. These partly assembled and
RTA products are designed to be assembled by the end user. Where a product may be covered
by more than one ANSI/BIFMA standard, the manufacturer shall determine which standard
provides the most appropriate test conditions. Where a product is intended for use outside of the
commercial or home office, it is the responsibility of the user of this standard to determine if it is
suitable for use in such evaluations.
