2、TS 16786:2018.The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee B/509/1, Road restraint systems.A list of organizations represented on this committee can be obtained on request to its secretary.BSI, as a member of CEN, is obliged to publish CEN/TS 16786:2018 as a Published

3、 Document. However, attention is drawn to the fact that during the development of this Technical Specification, the UK committee voted against its approval as a Technical Specification.The main reason for the negative UK committee vote is concern about the inclusion of only 50, 80 and 100 km/h speed

4、 classes.Within the UK road network, truck mounted attenuators are used for a wide variety of tasks on a large number of different roads. This also includes the high-speed road network, where traffic is permitted to travel at speeds up to and including 70 mph. This is equivalent to 113 km/h.Current

5、UK requirements for the testing of truck mounted attenuators (contained within TD 49/07, Requirements for Lorry Mounted Crash Cushions) are for it to be carried out at 110 km/h.CEN/TS 16786:2018 only considers testing with vehicles impacting at up to 100 km/h, and hence there is a gap between these

6、testing requirements and the speeds at which an errant vehicle may impact a truck mounted attenuator on the UK road network. This is considered to represent a safety risk for UK road users.Other reasons for the negative UK committee vote are that CEN/TS 16786:2018 does not require testing laboratori

7、es to be accredited and that deformation of the impacting vehicle does not constitute one of the pass/fail criteria.This publication does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract.

23、or slow-moving mobile carriers used in work zones and during maintenance operations. During an impact with a TMA, the mobile carrier is accelerated forward as the impacting vehicle is decelerated. This can, in turn, pose a risk to road workers in front of the support vehicle.This Technical Specifica

24、tion aims to conduct impact testing of whole TMA systems to establish the severity of an impact with the whole system, and to establish the trajectory of the impacting vehicle and mobile carrier following the impact.4PD CEN/TS 16786:2018CEN/TS 16786:2018 (E)1 ScopeThis Technical Specification establ
