It specifies minimum requirements for the function, strength, durability and stability of office desks, leaving designers and manufacturers the maximum opportunity to develop suitable products. The Standard covers freestanding desks such as single and double pedestal desks and extended desk units both adjustable and fixed height. It also includes tables intended for use as desks. The Standard is applicable to desks used with VDU and associated equipment. It does not specify criteria for VDU equipment.
