Full title and description

Industrial trucks — Verification of stability — Part 24: Slewing variable-reach rough-terrain trucks. This International Standard specifies tests and verification procedures for the stability of slewing variable-reach rough‑terrain trucks equipped with fork arms or with load‑carrying or non‑load‑carrying attachments.

Abstract

ISO 22915-24:2015, together with ISO 22915‑1, specifies the tests for verifying the stability of slewing variable‑reach rough‑terrain trucks. The standard describes test conditions, verification methods and marking requirements and excludes trucks fitted with integrated or non‑integrated personnel work platforms, tracked undercarriages or equipment for operation on rails.

Scope

This part of ISO 22915, used together with ISO 22915‑1 (General), specifies the tests for verifying the stability of slewing variable‑reach rough‑terrain trucks equipped with fork arms or with load‑carrying or non‑load‑carrying attachments. It does not apply to trucks fitted with personnel work platforms (integrated or non‑integrated), to tracked vehicles, or to equipment intended to operate on rails.

Key topics and requirements

• Definitions and classification relevant to slewing variable‑reach rough‑terrain trucks.
• Specified test conditions for stability verification (load positions, reach, slewing conditions and ground conditions).
• Procedures for conducting stability tests and criteria for pass/fail assessment.
• Marking requirements and presentation of load charts (including an example load chart in a normative annex).
• Normative references to related standards used in testing and classification (for example standards addressing rough‑terrain truck safety and terminology).

Typical use and users

Used by truck manufacturers, design and test engineers, conformity assessment bodies, certification laboratories, technical regulators and fleet safety managers to verify and document the stability characteristics of slewing variable‑reach rough‑terrain trucks during design validation, type testing and conformity assessment.
