Full title and description
AS 22915.10:2018 — Industrial trucks — Verification of stability, Part 10: Additional stability test for trucks operating in the special condition of stacking with load laterally displaced by powered devices (ISO 22915-10:2008, MOD). The standard specifies an additional test procedure to verify the stability of laden industrial trucks fitted with powered load‑handling devices (for example sideshifts) that can laterally displace the centre of gravity for stacking and retrieval operations with the mast vertical or at raised mast/boom settings.
Abstract
This part of AS 22915 defines an additional stability test for industrial trucks that operate in the special condition of stacking when a powered device displaces the load laterally. It adapts ISO 22915‑10:2008 with national modifications and sets out the required test setup, load conditions and acceptance criteria used to verify that the truck remains stable under the specified lateral displacement scenarios.

- Number of pages: 4 pages.
Scope
Specifies an additional stability test for laden industrial trucks fitted with powered load‑handling devices capable of laterally displacing the load’s centre of gravity a substantial, predetermined distance from the truck’s longitudinal centre plane (or from the centred position). The test is applicable to operations where such devices are used for depositing and retrieving loads with the mast vertical or raised to maximum boom angle and extension; it supplements general stability verification requirements for industrial trucks.
Key topics and requirements
- Definition of the "special condition of stacking" with laterally displaced loads and the types of powered devices covered (e.g., sideshifts).
- Test setup and instrumentation for reproducing lateral centre‑of‑gravity displacement.
- Load conditions, mast/boom positions (vertical or maximum extension/angle) and required test sequences.
- Acceptance criteria and pass/fail stability indicators for the tested truck configuration.
- Reference and modification of ISO 22915‑10:2008 to national requirements.
Typical use and users
Used by industrial truck manufacturers, design and test laboratories, safety and compliance engineers, certification bodies, fleet operators and maintenance engineers to verify vehicle stability when powered lateral‑displacement devices are fitted. The standard supports type testing, design validation and regulatory compliance checks for specialised stacking operations.

FAQ
Q: What is this standard?
A: AS 22915.10:2018 is an Australian Standard specifying an additional stability test for industrial trucks that stack loads while using powered devices which laterally displace the load (e.g., sideshifts). It is based on ISO 22915‑10:2008 with national modifications.
Q: What does it cover?
A: It covers the test procedures, load and mast/boom positions, instrumentation and acceptance criteria necessary to verify that a laden truck fitted with a powered lateral‑displacement device remains stable during the specified stacking operations.
Q: Who typically uses it?
A: Manufacturers, test laboratories, conformity assessment bodies, safety/compliance engineers and fleet operators involved with specialised stacking operations where powered lateral‑displacement devices are fitted.
Q: Is it current or superseded?
A: AS 22915.10:2018 has been superseded. The document was replaced by AS 22915.10:2024 (which adopts ISO 22915‑10:2023 with modifications). The supersession was recorded in 2024. Users should reference the 2024 edition for the latest requirements.
Q: Is it part of a series?
A: Yes — it is Part 10 of the AS 22915 series (Verification of stability) which contains multiple parts addressing different truck types and special handling conditions; other parts include AS 22915.9 and AS 22915.12, among others.
Q: What are the key keywords?
A: industrial trucks; stability verification; lateral displacement; powered load‑handling device; sideshift; stacking; AS 22915; ISO 22915.
