1.1This specification provides the means to measure and evaluate the performance of adhesives for structural or semi-structural bonding of wood-to-wood in manufactured homes. Wood as used in this specification includes lumber, plywood, particleboard, gypsum board, and all materials having wood-based surfaces at the bondline. This specification does not cover other adhesives used in manufactured homes such as adhesives for carpet, floor tile, ceramic fixtures, plastic laminates, trim and millwork, and similar nonstructural applications.

1.1.1The performance of the adhesives is measured in the following tests:

Number	Test	Section
1	Low Temperature	16
2	Dry Lumber	17
3	Gap-Filling	18
4	High Temperature	19
5	Type 3 Qualification	20
6	Type 2 Qualification	21
7	Aging, Film Oxidation	22
8	Aging, Bond Oxidation	23
9	Resistance to Deformation, Creep	24
10	Mold	25
11	Type 1 Qualification	26

1.2The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.

1.3This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.

1.4This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
