ISO 3133, ISO 3349, and ASTM D143 are all testing standards that determine the flexural material properties of wood beams. A flex test subjects wood to compressive, tensile and shear loading, which replicates the most realistic end uses of the material. ISO 3133, ISO 3349 and EN 310 are specific to static bending, but ASTM D143 includes various other wood test types such as compression, impact, tension, hardness, nail removal testing, and others. The above listed standards are the most commonly used wood flex tests, but many other wood testing standards exist in various organizational bodies including ASTM, ISO, EN, BS, JAS, and JIS.
