Load restraint assemblies on road vehicles - Safety - Part 1: Calculation of lashing forces
This Part of prEN 12195 specifies acceleration coefficients for surface transport. It also gives methods of calculation of lashing forces acting on goods on load carriers, lorries, trailers and swap bodies, either on road, on vessels or by rail and/or combinations thereof for different types of load and different types of lashing. It excludes the hump shunting during railway transport (web lashings see EN 12195-2, lashing chains see EN 12195-3, wire lashing ropes see prEN 12195-4).
The lashing forces to be chosen for calculation in this EN 12195-1 are static forces produced by tensioning of lashings and dynamic forces, which act on the lashing as a reaction of the load movements.
Instructions for the application of calculations are also specified.

Elle ne traite pas de la man�uvre par gravité lors du transport ferroviaire (sangles d'arrimage, voir EN 12195-2 ; chaînes d'arrimage, voir EN 12195 3 ; câbles d'arrimage, voir prEN 12195-4).
Les forces d'arrimage à choisir pour effectuer les calculs selon la présente norme EN 12195-1 sont les forces statiques produites par la tension des arrimages et les forces dynamiques, qui agissent sur les arrimages en réaction aux mouvements des charges.
Les instructions pour l'application de ces calculs sont également spécifiées.

Introduction
This Part of EN 12195 has been prepared to provide one means of conforming with the essential safety require-
ments to calculate lashing forces for load restraint assemblies to be used in the Common European Market and
thus enabling the free movement of goods.
The extent to which hazards are covered is indicated in the scope of this standard. In addition, load restraint as-
semblies for securing of loads on vehicles should conform as appropriate to the other parts of this standard and
EN 292 for hazards which are not covered by this standard.
1 Scope
This Part of EN 12195 specifies acceleration coefficients for surface transport. It also gives methods of calculation
of lashing forces acting on goods on load carriers, lorries, trailers and swap bodies, either on road, on vessels or by
rail and/or combinations thereof for different types of load and different types of lashing. It excludes the hump
shunting during railway transport (web lashings see EN 12195-2, lashing chains see EN 12195-3, wire lashing
ropes see prEN 12195-4).
The lashing forces to be chosen for calculation in this EN 12195-1 are static forces produced by tensioning of
lashings and dynamic forces, which act on the lashing as a reaction of the load movements.
Instructions for the application of calculations are also specified.
