19、 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard applies to body structures on commercial vehicles and on trailers with a maximum total weight of more than 3 500 kg. This European Standard sets out basic minimum requirements for standard vehicle bodies (side walls, front and rear walls) and for reinforced vehi
20、cle bodies and specifies appropriate tests. This European Standard does not apply to swap bodies, nor to box type vans, i.e. vehicles where the driver cabin and the cargo space form one unit. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this docu
21、ment. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

23、erms and definitions apply. 3.1 standard vehicle body vehicle body complying with the minimum requirements of 5.2 (performance code L according to Table 1) which, depending on cargo weight and friction, requires additional securing of cargo using lashing equipment 3.2 reinforced vehicle body vehicle
24、 body, having a reinforced structure, and complying with the minimum requirements of 5.3 (performance code XL according to Table 1) 4 General requirements Verification of conformity to this standard shall be provided either by static testing or by dynamic driving tests or by calculation. Where the v
25、erification is carried out by testing and where body structures are produced in series (structures of the same design), type testing on one lorry or trailer, for which the structure has been designed is sufficient. Where body structures are produced individually a calculation or test of the complete
26、 structure is required. A calculation or test for the complete system consisting of front, rear and side walls, roof and floor is necessary for the entire structure even if individual components have been taken from sample structures Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Fri May 25 07:30:52 GMT+00:00 2007, U

However, it is admissible to replace individual components which have successfully been tested within a complete system with others that have yielded the same results in testing. Where a
28、 body structure has been tested or calculated successfully as a modular system set, calculation or testing shall be carried out to verify that the connection between the body structure and the floor complies with the requirements of this standard. 5 Testing 5.1 General Table 1 gives an overview of t
29、he static test conditions, the details of which are specified in 5.2 and 5.3.

These tes
31、t conditions are designated by performance code “L”. Vehicle body structures shall be tested in the condition in which they are designed to be used. Moreover, if they are equipped with removable components, these components shall be in position. In the following test requirements specified, the foll
32、owing letters shall have the following meanings: P the weight force (in daN) of the vehicle to be tested at the authorised payload; F the force of pressure (in MPa). In every test the test load shall be applied for at least 5 min. Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, na, Fri May 25 07:30:52 GMT+00:00 2007, Unco

The static t
34、esting of standard structures shall be conducted using the test rigs specified in 5.2.2 to 5.2.4 or as air bag tests. 5.2.2 Strength of front wall The front end wall is tested with a test force of 0,4 P, the maximum however being 5 000 daN. The inner face of the front end wall to be tested shall be
35、subjected to a test force uniformly distributed over the entire surface. 5.2.3 Strength of rear and end wall The rear end wall is tested with a test force of 0,25 P, the maximum however being 3 100 daN. The inner face of the rear end wall to be tested shall be subjected to a test force uniformly dis
36、tributed over the entire surface. 5.2.4 Strength of side walls 5.2.4.1 Box type bodies Each side wall is tested with a test load of 0,3 P. The inner surface of each side wall to be tested shall be subjected to the test force uniformly distributed over the entire surface. The rear walls may be closed
37、. In the case of symmetrical construction, one side wall only needs to be tested. 5.2.4.2 Open sided types with side-boards and cover/stake body 5.2.4.2.1 General The total test force to be applied to each side wall shall be 0,3 P. In the case of symmetrical side walls, one side wall only needs to b
38、e tested. The test can be carried out either as specified under 5.2.4.2.2 or under 5.2.4.2.3. 5.2.4.2.2 Testing with test rig The centre of the load of 0,3 P to be applied shall be so arranged that 0,24 P is applied to the lower rigid part of the side wall and simultaneously 0,06 P is applied to the
39、 rest of the side wall. In so doing the test, the rig shall not obtain support from the body stake(s). The test shall be carried out with the maximum height of rigid side board provided. The reaction forces shall be applied to the base structure. Typical examples of test rigs are shown in Figures 1
40、to 6.

45、ther parts are free to deflect. The lath work shall be covered by panels of 5 mm thickness of plywood or of an equivalent material to achieve a uniform distribution of the load. A test load is uniformly distributed over the side wall using distributed individual weights such that 0,24 P is applied t
46、o the rigid part of the wall and 0,06 P to the lath work. 5.2.4.3 Curtainsiders Lashing points for securing of cargo are mandatory for vehicles with curtainsiders. Such fittings shall fulfil the requirements of EN 12640. The tarpaulin need not to be in compliance with EN 12641-2, but provides weathe
47、r protection only and is not designed to take forces for securing of the cargo. 5.2.4.4 Drop side body with side and tail boards without cover Each side wall shall be subjected to a loading of 0,3 P. The internal surface of each side wall shall be subjected to the test load uniformly distributed in
48、such a way that the upper edge of the load coincides with the upper edge of the side wall. The test shall be carried out with the maximum side wall height provided. If it is usual in operation for chains or similar equipment to be used to connect side walls to each other such equipment may be used d
