Abstract:
The standard European Normative (EN) 12767, Passive Safety of Support Structures for Road Equipment, evaluates two parameters which categorize the support structures of road equipment. These parameters are the category of energy absorption in case of a car crash and the level of safety for the persons in the car. All of this is evaluated at exactly defined conditions regarding the equipment used in the test as well as the procedure of testing. Further details are given in this presentation.
