The load introduction into the sandwich structure proves to be particularly critical. However, the verification takes place based on non-standardized tests abstracted from the application so that influences caused by boundary conditions and multiple load introduction points cannot be investigated. Moreover, these tests also do not allow comparisons of different designs. The variety of different test setups on component level has made the comparability of published results more difficult. This paper summarizes the state of the art of existing component tests. Based on that and using the example of an aircraft cabin partition, the existing test setups are checked for their suitability to cover all given load cases. New test setups with extended boundary conditions and several load introduction points are developed. For one test setup, test results are shown and compared to a conventional component test.enhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/SandwichComponent TestInsertTest DesignCabin InteriorTechnikIngenieurwissenschaftenConference Paper10.15480/882.498210.5075/epfl-298799_978-2-9701614-0-010.15480/882.4982Conference Paper
