AS 22915.12:2018 pdf free.Industrial trucks—Verification of stability Part 12: Industrial variable-reach trucks handling freight containers of 6 m (20 ft) length and longer (ISO 22915- 12:2015, MOD).
3.1
industrial variable-reach truck handling freight container
counterbalanced lift truck with an articulating boom, telescopic or not, non-slewing, as defined in ISO 5053:1987, 4.13.2.2.2, used especially for handling freight containers of 6 m (2Oft) length and longer
Note 1 to entry: The load-handling means are mounted directly on the lifting means. Lifting means are non- stewing or have slewing movement not more than 5° either side of the longitudinal axis of the truck.
Note 2 to entry: Industrial variable-reach truck handling freight containers are intended to be used on substantially firm, smooth, level and prepared surfaces.
Note 3 to entry: Industrial variable-reach truck handling freight containers may be fitted with stabilizers, axle locking, or lateral frame levelling devices, as defined in ISO 36912:_2).
4 Operating conditions
4.1 General
In addition to Iso 22915-1, the following conditions apply:
— operating the truck (travelling with the freight container at normal travelling height and stacking) in conditions where the wind rated speed is up to 12,2 rn/s.
4.2 Partially elevated container
The container is elevated for travel so that the bottom of the container is no higher than 900 mm above the seat index point (SIP) as defined in ISO 5353 and with the boom fully retracted.
NOTE The elevated container permits an operator in a low position on the truck to see underneath the container.
5 Test conditions
5.1 General
See ISO 22915-1.
The tests shall take into account the normal degree of eccentric loading of containers defined in ISO 3874.
When handling empty containers with integral refrigeration unit (reefer), as specified in ISO 1496-2, the offset loading needs to be taken into account, according to ISO 229 15-20.
5.2 Prevailing wind
The tests shall not be carried out in a prevailing wind that would significantly affect the test results.
5.5 Test load
5.5.1 General
The test load shall consist of a load corresponding to the weight of the container, and a load or force simulating the effect of the wind on the container.
5.5.2 Basic load
The test load shall be equivalent to an ISO container 2,90 m (9 It 6 in) high, with a mass equivalent to the rated load as specified by the manufacturer, acting through its centre of gravity.
When using a top lift, side lift, or other load-handling means, the position of the centre of gravity shall be determined by the connection points to the test load, e.g. twist locks into the corner fittings.
Where the load-handling means can be laterally adjusted to the truck longitudinal centreline, ISO 229 15-10 may apply.
Where the load-handling means has positional adjustment capability in the direction of the truck longitudinal centreline, other than boom reach, the tests shall be carried out at both extremes of adjustment.AS 22915.12 pdf download.
