Rough-terrain trucks — Non-integrated personnel work platforms — Part 1: Design, safety requirements and verification
ISO 18479-1:2015 defines design criteria and safety requirements for non-integrated personnel work platforms (PWPs) which, if approved for use on the rough-terrain truck, can be fitted and secured to the forks, carriage or attachment bracket of a rough-terrain truck to elevate occupants with or without materials and tools to raised work positions without any controls in the platform to control movement. Design, safety requirements and test methods for variable-reach rough-terrain trucks are covered in ISO 10896‑1. Personnel work platforms equipped with controls which affect movement of the rough-terrain truck are excluded from this part of ISO 18479. The requirements of this part of ISO 18479 shall apply except where national or local regulations are more stringent. ISO 18479-1:2015 is not applicable to non-integrated personnel work platforms manufactured before the date of its publication.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.

assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to the WTO principles in the Technical
Barriers to Trade (TBT) see the following URL: Foreword - Supplementary information
The committee responsible for this document is ISO/TC 110, Industrial trucks, Subcommittee SC 4,
Rough-terrain trucks.

ISO 18479-1:2015(E)
Introduction
This part of ISO 18479 is one of a set of International Standards produced by ISO/TC 110/SC 4 as part
of its program of work regarding standardization of terminology, general safety, performance and user
requirements for rough-terrain trucks (hereafter also referred to as trucks).
This part of ISO 18479 only addresses the design and safety requirements for non-integrated personnel
work platforms and does not address the rough-terrain truck itself. See ISO 10896-1.
This part of ISO 18479 is a type-C standard as stated in ISO 12100.

platforms —
Part 1:
Design, safety requirements and verification
1 Scope
This part of ISO 18479 defines design criteria and safety requirements for non-integrated personnel
work platforms (PWPs) which, if approved for use on the rough-terrain truck, can be fitted and secured
to the forks, carriage or attachment bracket of a rough-terrain truck to elevate occupants with or without
materials and tools to raised work positions without any controls in the platform to control movement.
Design, safety requirements and test methods for variable-reach rough-terrain trucks are covered
in ISO 10896-1.
Personnel work platforms equipped with controls which affect movement of the rough-terrain truck
are excluded from this part of ISO 18479.
The requirements of this part of ISO 18479 shall apply except where national or local regulations are
more stringent.
This part of ISO 18479 is not applicable to non-integrated personnel work platforms manufactured
before the date of its publication.
