![]() However, in the current revision, which Germany had opposed, requirements regarding safety factors have been significantly reduced. The previous edition of EN 12195-1:2003 - which is largely based on VDI 2700 - is considered in Germany to be one of the 'generally accepted technical rules' in accordance with section 22 of the StVO (German Traffic Regulations). According to section 22, paragraph 1 of the StVO (German Traffic Regulations), the load, including equipment for securing the load and loading devices are to be stowed and secured so that they cannot slide, fall over, roll forwards and backwards even during emergency braking or sudden evasive action, in compliance with the 'generally accepted technical rules'. The securing forces to be chosen for calculation to this European Standard are static forces produced by tensioning of lashings and dynamic forces, which act on the lashing as a reaction of the load movements. Furthermore, the acceleration coefficients for surface transport are given. For dimensioning of load securing a distinction is made between stable loads and loads liable to tilting. ![]() This European Standard does not apply for vehicles with a total weight equal to or lower than 3 500 kg lighter vehicles can have driving characteristics, which give higher values of acceleration on the road. ![]() Hump shunting with acceleration over 1 g during railway transport is excluded, as it is not foreseen in combined transport. This European Standard describes the design of various securing methods (blocking, lashing, and combinations thereof) for securing of loads for surface transport by road vehicles or parts of them (lorries, trailers, containers and swap bodies), including their transport on vessels or by rail and/or combinations thereof. Regarding the German collaboration, the responsible Working Committee is NA 106-01-03 AA 'Chemiefaserhebebänder und Zurrgurte' ('Non-made fibre webbing and load restrain assemblies') of the Textiles and Textile Machinery Standards Committee (Textilnorm). ![]() ![]() This European Standard has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 168 'Chains, ropes, webbing, slings and accessories - Safety' (secretariat: BSI, United Kingdom). ![]()
