Basic Information
Scope
This document describes two test methods for determining the flexural resistance of complete shoes. These two methods may not yield comparable results.
Note 1: The selected test method depends on the agreement between the parties using this test method or the requirements of the product standards referring to this test method.
This document is applicable to the determination of the flexural resistance of complete shoes made of various materials.
This document is not applicable to complete shoes with a heel height greater than 50 mm (Method A) or 70 mm (Method B), or with a flexural part of the sole thickness greater than 25 mm, or with a flexure angle of less than 45° after testing according to the provisions of GB/T 20991—2007.
Note 2: The thickness of the flexural part of the sole includes the thickness of the insole.
The flexural resistance of the sole is determined in accordance with this document.
