Load restraining on road vehicles - Safety - Part 1: Calculation of securing forces

This European Standard is applicable to the design of securing methods (blocking, lashing, and combinations) for securing of loads for surface transport by road vehicles or parts of them (lorries, trailers, containers and swap bodies), including their transport on vessels or by rail and/or combinations thereof. Hump shunting with acceleration over 1 g during railway transport is excluded, as it is not foreseen in combined transport. (Web lashings see EN 12195-2, lashing chains see EN 12195-3, lashing steel wire ropes see EN 12195-4).
This European Standard does not apply for vehicles with a total weight equal to or lower than 3 500 kg.
NOTE   Lighter vehicles can have driving characteristics, which give higher values of acceleration on the road.
For dimensioning of load securing a distinction is made between stable loads and loads liable to tilting.
Furthermore, the acceleration coefficients for surface transport are specified.
For over top lashing the force loss in the tension force of the lashing at the outer edges between load and lashing is taken into account. The securing forces to be chosen for calculation in this EN 12195-1 are static forces produced by blocking or tensioning of lashings and dynamic forces, which act on the lashing as a reaction of the load movements.
Examples for the application of calculations are given in Annex A.

Ladungssicherung auf Straßenfahrzeugen - Sicherheit - Teil 1: Berechnung von Sicherungskräften

Diese Europäische Norm gilt für die Auslegung der verschiedenen Sicherungsverfahren (Blockieren, Zurren und deren Kombinationen) zur Ladungssicherung für den Land- und Seetransport durch Straßenfahrzeuge oder deren Teile (LKW, Anhänger, Container und Wechselbehälter), einschließlich ihres Transports auf Schiffen oder auf der Schiene und/oder einer Kombination dieser Verkehrsarten. Der Ablaufrangierbetrieb bei mehr als 1 g Beschleunigung ist ausgeschlossen, da dieser bei kombiniertem Transport nicht vorgesehen ist. (Zurrgurte siehe EN 12195 2, Zurrketten siehe EN 12195 3, Zurrdrahtseile siehe EN 12195 4.)
Diese Europäische Norm gilt nicht für Fahrzeuge mit einem Gesamtgewicht bis einschließlich 3 500 kg.
ANMERKUNG   Leichtere Fahrzeuge können Fahreigenschaften aufweisen, die zu höheren Beschleunigungswerten auf der Straße führen.
Für die Bemessung der Ladungssicherung wird zwischen stabilen und kippgefährdeten Ladungen unter-schieden.
Zudem werden die Beschleunigungsbeiwerte für den Land- und Seetransport angegeben.
Beim Niederzurren wird der Kraftverlust der Spannkraft im Zurrmittel an den Außenkanten zwischen Ladung und Zurrmittel berücksichtigt. Die für die Berechnung nach dieser EN 12195 1 gewählten Sicherungskräfte sind statische Kräfte, die durch das Spannen der Zurrmittel entstehen, sowie dynamische Kräfte, die auf das Zurr-mittel als Rückwirkung der Ladungsbewegungen wirken.
Beispiele für die Anwendung der Berechnungen sind in Anhang A angegeben.

Dispositifs d'arrimage des charges à bord des véhicules routiers - Sécurité - Partie 1: Calcul des forces de retenue

La présente Norme européenne concerne la conception des méthodes d’assujettissement (blocage, arrimage
et combinaisons) pour l’assujettissement des charges dans le cadre du transport de surface par véhicules
routiers ou parties de ces derniers (camions, remorques, conteneurs et carrosseries mobiles), y compris le
transport à bord de navires ou par chemin de fer et/ou avec des combinaisons de ces divers modes de
transport. Elle ne traite pas de la manoeuvre par gravité supérieure à 1g lors du transport ferroviaire (sangles
d'arrimage, voir EN 12195-2, chaînes d'arrimage, voir EN 12195-3, câbles d'arrimage en acier, voir
EN 12195-4).
La présente Norme européenne ne s’applique pas aux véhicules d’un poids total inférieur ou égal à 3500 kg.
NOTE Les véhicules plus légers peuvent avoir des caractéristiques d'entraînement qui fournissent des valeurs
d’accélération plus élevées sur route.
Pour le dimensionnement de l’assujettissement de la charge, une distinction est faite entre les charges
stables et les charges susceptibles de basculer.
Par ailleurs, les coefficients d’accélération pour le transport de surface sont spécifiés.
Pour l’arrimage par le dessus, la diminution de la tension de l’arrimage au niveau des bords extérieurs entre la
charge et l’arrimage est prise en considération. Les forces d'arrimage de retenue à choisir pour effectuer les
calculs selon la présente norme EN 12195-1 sont les forces statiques générées par le blocage ou la tension
des dispositifs d’arrimages et les forces dynamiques, qui agissent sur les arrimages en réaction aux
mouvements des charges.
Des exemples pour l’application de ces calculs sont donnés à l'Annexe A.

Overview

EN 12195-1:2010 (CEN) - "Load restraining on road vehicles - Safety - Part 1: Calculation of securing forces" sets out the principles and calculation methods for designing load securing (blocking, lashing and combinations) for surface transport. It applies to lorries, trailers, containers and swap bodies, including combined transport by road, rail and sea (hump shunting >1 g excluded). The standard is intended for vehicles with a total weight greater than 3 500 kg and harmonizes how static and dynamic securing forces are calculated across the Common European Market.

Key topics and requirements

  • Scope and applicability: Design of securing methods for surface transport (road, and where applicable combined rail/sea). Excludes light vehicles ≤ 3 500 kg and extreme rail hump shunting.
  • Acceleration coefficients: Specifies acceleration coefficients (c × g) for longitudinal, transverse and vertical directions used to compute inertial forces on cargo.
  • Force calculation: Defines static and dynamic securing forces produced by blocking, tensioning of lashings and load reaction forces (examples and formulas provided; e.g., Fx = m · cx · g).
  • Load types: Distinguishes between stable loads and loads liable to tilting - different calculation approaches are required.
  • Lashing methods covered: Frictional (over-top) lashing, direct lashing (loop, diagonal, slope, spring), blocking and combinations. For over-top lashing the loss of tension at load edges is taken into account.
  • Friction factors and testing: Annex B (normative) gives methods to determine friction factor µ; Annex D describes practical verification tests (dynamic driving and inclination tests). Annex A contains worked calculation examples.
  • Documentation and marking: Includes guidance for user instructions, marking and a load securing protocol (Annex C/E).

Practical applications

Who uses EN 12195-1:2010 and why:

  • Transport engineers and logistics planners - to design securing arrangements that meet harmonized safety criteria.
  • Fleet and warehouse safety managers - to document and verify cargo restraint and reduce risk of load shifts.
  • Vehicle and body manufacturers - to ensure load carriers have appropriate lashing/attachment points and structural compatibility (see EN 12642).
  • Lashing product designers and test labs - to size lashings, determine required standard tension force (STF) and perform verification tests.
  • Regulators and auditors - to assess compliance with recognized calculation methods for cargo restraint.

Practical benefits:

  • Reduces cargo damage and road safety risk by applying consistent calculation methods.
  • Enables safe combined transport (road/rail/sea) planning.
  • Provides normative friction data and test methods to validate real-world securing arrangements.

Combinations of longitudinal and transverse accelerations occurring during transport are covered by the values of the tables. In case of combination of different modes of transport the maximum relevant acceleration coefficient, as appropriate, has to be taken into account. Superposition of the weight of the load with high frequency stresses and occasional occurring shock loadings of short duration are absorbed by the elongation of the lashing devices and the shock absorber system of the lorries and trailers. This occurs without any significant increase of stress, so that this can be ignored for the purpose of this European Standard which gives a practical and not a scientific view. Even for cargo with no risk of sliding or tilting, measures (e.g. blocking or lashing) shall be taken to avoid them to be significantly displaced due to vibrations. 4.2 Load on load carriers during road transport The acceleration coefficients for load carriers during road transport shall be as given in Table 2.

C Unrestricted. 5 Methods of calculation 5.1 General The general requirements for a safe transport are:  the sum of forces in any direction equals zero;  the sum of moments in any plane equals zero. Load securing devices and aids, as e.g. wedges, web lashing devices according to EN 12195-2, lashing chains according to EN 12195-3 and lashing steel wire ropes according to EN 12195-4 have to sustain the forces and moments, longitudinally, transversely and vertically, the restraint device and the cargo unit are supposed to sustain. Generally, load securing consists of balancing the forces of a load by locking, blocking and/or lashing. Locking, a completely positive connection, is mainly used in the transport of containers and is not usually combined with lashing devices. Blocking results in a positive connection in the blocked direction only and therefore is often combined with lashing devices. This is taken into consideration in 5.3, 5.4 and 5.5. All calculation equations given in this European Standard are based on symmetrical (longitudinal and transverse) lashing methods. If the lashings are made unsymmetrical, this shall be taken into account when calculations are performed; this is not dealt with in this European Standard. The two basic lashing methods are:  frictional lashing (see 3.1.8);  direct lashing (see 3.1.9). For the design of the direct lashing method a conversion factor fµ = 0,75 will be used in combination with µ and is included in all appropriate equations. SIST EN 12195-1:2011

The tensioning devices of the lashing devices, if more than one, should be arranged alternatively on the opposing sides of the load. Because of practical reasons, e.g. setting behaviour of the load, retightening after short travelling is recommended. Indicated by the surface of the load, corner protectors should be used. The calculations in the standard are based on theoretical principles. Operational factors can positively or negatively impact the required number of lashing devices, e.g.:  retensioning not feasible;  self-tensioning effect;  influence of the corner frictions. To compensate for uncertainties of the distribution of lashing forces and for acceleration during braking a safety factor fS is to be used. fS = 1,1 in all horizontal directions, except for road transport in forward direction, where fS = 1,25. The tension force of any tensioning device has to meet the following conditions: LCFLC5,01,0T≤≤ (8) For the calculation FT has to be taken as STF if no other values are shown by tension force indicators. NOTE In practice LC and STF are given in decanewtons, but all other forces in newtons. For reasons of comparison however the same unit is used. 5.4.2 Avoiding sliding For the design of frictional lashing the friction factor µ

NOTE Special loads, like e.g. rows of barrels, should generally be excluded from this procedure, because the barrel segments can shift into one another.

A longitudinal angle βx and a transverse angle βy occur additionally to the vertical angle α under the lashing device (see Figure 8). This allows for the reduction of the number of lashing devices from 8 to 4 for a completely secured load. SIST EN 12195-1:2011

Die Norm EN 12195-1:2010 stellt einen wichtigen Standard im Bereich der Ladungssicherung auf Straßenfahrzeugen dar. Ihr Umfang erstreckt sich auf die Gestaltung von Sicherungsmethoden wie Blockieren, Zurren und deren Kombinationen zur Sicherung von Lasten während des Oberflächenverkehrs. Dies schließt Lkw, Anhänger, Container und Wechselbehälter ein, wobei auch deren Transport auf Schiffen oder per Bahn berücksichtigt wird. Die Norm ist besonders relevant, da sie spezifische Anforderungen und Berechnungsmethoden für die Ladungssicherung definiert, was zu einer höheren Sicherheit im Straßenverkehr beiträgt. Ein herausragendes Merkmal der EN 12195-1 ist die Differenzierung zwischen stabilen Lasten und Lasten, die kippen können. Diese Unterscheidung ist von zentraler Bedeutung, da sie die korrekte Dimensionierung der Ladungssicherung ermöglicht und somit das Risiko von Unfällen verringert. Darüber hinaus werden die Beschleunigungskoeffizienten für den Oberflächenverkehr klar definiert, was eine präzise Berechnung der benötigten Sicherungskräfte unterstützt. Die Norm berücksichtigt nicht nur die statischen Kräfte, die durch Blockieren oder Zurren entstehen, sondern auch die dynamischen Kräfte, die aufgrund von Bewegungen der Last auftreten. Dieser ganzheitliche Ansatz zur Berücksichtigung verschiedenster Bewegungen und Kräfte macht die EN 12195-1 zu einem umfassenden Werkzeug zur Sicherstellung der Lastsicherung. Die Berechnungsmethoden werden durch praktische Beispiele im Anhang A ergänzt, was den Anwendern hilft, die Norm effektiv anzuwenden. Ein weiterer Stärke der Norm ist, dass sie klarstellt, dass sie nicht für Fahrzeuge mit einem Gesamtgewicht von 3.500 kg oder weniger gilt. Diese Ausnahme ist wichtig, da leichtere Fahrzeuge spezielle Fahrverhalten aufweisen können, die höhere Beschleunigungswerte bedeuten. Dies stellt sicher, dass die Norm auf die spezifischen Bedingungen von schwereren Fahrzeugen zugeschnitten ist und damit die Sicherheit im Transport von Gütern realistisch und praktikabel gewährleistet wird. Insgesamt ist die EN 12195-1:2010 ein unverzichtbarer Standard für Unternehmen und Fachleute im Bereich der Logistik und Transport. Ihre detaillierten Vorgaben und Berechnungsmethoden zur Ladungssicherung bieten nicht nur rechtliche Absicherung, sondern tragen auch aktiv zur Sicherheit auf unseren Straßen bei.

La norme SIST EN 12195-1:2011 sur le maintien des charges sur les véhicules routiers est une référence essentielle pour le design des méthodes de sécurisation des charges lors du transport routier. Ce document s'applique spécifiquement aux dispositifs de blocage, aux liaisons (lashing) et aux combinaisons utilisées pour sécuriser les charges sur divers types de véhicules tels que les camions, les remorques, les conteneurs et les caisses mobiles. L'un des points forts de cette norme est sa capacité à aborder les différents aspects du transport sur route, en prenant également en compte le transport intermodal par voie ferroviaire et maritime, bien que les situations de manœuvre à grande vitesse en transport combiné soient exclues. Cela permet une application large dans le secteur de la logistique, assurant ainsi que les chargements sont effectués en toute sécurité, ce qui est crucial pour la réduction des accidents et pertes. La norme établit également une distinction entre les charges stables et celles susceptibles de basculer, permettant une dimensionnement approprié des méthodes de sécurisation. Les coefficients d'accélération spécifiés pour le transport sur chaussée sont un autre atout, car ils permettent d'anticiper et de calculer les forces de sécurisation nécessaires en fonction des conditions spécifiques de transport. Les forces statiques et dynamiques, qui doivent être prises en compte lors des calculs, sont clairement définies, garantissant ainsi une compréhension et une application cohérente des méthodes de liaisons. De plus, l'annexe A fournit des exemples concrets d'application des calculs, enrichissant ainsi la compréhension de la norme et facilitant son application pratique. Dans un secteur où la sécurité et la conformité sont primordiales, la norme EN 12195-1:2010 se révèle être un outil fondamental pour les professionnels du transport, garantissant une approche standardisée et efficace pour le maintien en sécurité des charges sur les routes européennes.

The EN 12195-1:2010 standard is an essential document for ensuring the safety of load securing methods on road vehicles. It provides a comprehensive framework for the calculation of securing forces, which is crucial for safe surface transportation by lorries, trailers, containers, and swap bodies, as well as during their transport on vessels or by rail. One of the notable strengths of this standard is its clear delineation of its scope, particularly in excluding circumstances such as hump shunting with high acceleration during railway transport, which may complicate load securing methods. This focus helps to hone in on applicable scenarios, ensuring that users can apply the standard’s guidelines effectively. The EN 12195-1:2010 also emphasizes the importance of distinguishing between stable loads and those liable to tilting. This distinction is critical for accurately dimensioning load securing methods and allows for tailored approaches that enhance the efficiency and safety of load restraint practices. Additionally, the standard specifies acceleration coefficients for surface transport, which further refines the calculations necessary for securing loads. An important aspect of the standard is its consideration of both static and dynamic forces. By taking into account the force loss in the tension force of the lashing at the outer edges, the standard presents a more realistic approach to securing loads, factoring in the natural movements that occur during transportation. This adds to the reliability of the calculations provided within the standard. Annex A offers examples for practical application of the securing force calculations, making it easier for practitioners to implement the guidance provided by the EN 12195-1:2010 in real-world scenarios. This feature enhances the standard’s relevance to those in the industry, equipping them with the knowledge needed to adhere to safety regulations. In summary, the EN 12195-1:2010 standard is a robust document that significantly contributes to road vehicle safety by standardizing the methods for load securing through detailed calculation of forces. Its focus on practical application, clear scope, and consideration of various load conditions solidifies its importance in the field of surface transport safety.
