This part of PAS 2012 specifies design and manufacturing requirements for a wheelchair accessible vehicle (WAV) of EC Category M1, in which one or more passengers travel, each seated in a wheelchair that is secured in the WAV using four-point strap-type tie-downs.<\/p>\n

\n

NOTE 1 Some four-point strap-type tie-downs are wheelchair-specific, and are designed to be used with only one particular model of wheelchair. Care should be taken when selecting appropriate tie-downs, as not all four-point strap-type tie-downs might be suitable for test in accordance with the requirements of this PAS. For example, it might not be possible to attach some wheelchair-specific tie-downs to a SWC and some wheelchair-specific WTORSs include wheelchair occupant restraint anchorages that attach to the wheelchair itself rather than the WAV structure.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

It specifies:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n

    a gauge-based method for measuring the key accessibility dimensions of WAVs capable of transporting occupied wheelchairs ranging from 775 mm to 1 350 mm long, 500 mm to 830 mm wide and 975 mm to 1 550 mm high;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  2. \n

    a separate method for measuring the key accessibility dimensions of WAVs capable of transporting occupied wheelchairs in excess of 1 350 mm long, 830 mm wide or 1 550 mm high;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  3. \n

    requirements for wheelchair access devices (where fitted), including:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. \n

      ramps;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    2. \n

      lifts;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

    3. \n

      winches;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n

    4. \n

      requirements for wheelchair tie-down and occupant restraint system (WTORS) anchorages for securing wheelchairs \u2264200 kg in mass, and wheelchair users, within the WAV, including:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. \n

        static and dynamic test methods, (either of which can be used), for determining the strength of WTORS anchorages for forward-facing wheelchairs \u226485 kg;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

      2. \n

        a dynamic test method for determining the strength of WTORS anchorages for forward-facing wheelchairs >85 kg to \u2264200 kg;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n

      3. \n

        requirements for rearward-facing wheelchair installations including:<\/p>\n

          \n
        1. \n

          static test method for WTORS anchorages;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        2. \n

          static test method for wheelchair occupant head and back support;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n

        3. \n

          structural integrity; and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

        4. \n

          requirements for service elements, for example, a user manual (including WAV technical specification to facilitate direct comparisons between WAVs) and re-call procedures.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          It does not specify requirements for securing an occupied wheelchair in the driving position of a WAV.<\/p>\n

          \n

          NOTE 2 The securing of an occupied wheelchair in the driving position of a WAV tends to be a bespoke solution for which appropriate design and test requirements have not yet been fully developed.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          It does not specify requirements for securing the wheelchair other than with four-point strap-type tie-downs.<\/p>\n

          \n

          NOTE 3 PAS 2012\u20111 is limited to four-point strap-type tie-downs due to the lack of technical data to support the drafting of requirements for other, more bespoke types of wheelchair tie-down equipment. However, the general principles of the test annexes may be applied to other types of wheelchair tie-down equipment, subject to it being possible to make appropriate modifications to the SWC.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          This part of PAS 2012 does not specify requirements for the retail of WAVs.<\/p>\n

          \n

          NOTE 4 PAS 2012\u20112 specifies requirements for the retail of WAVs conforming to PAS 2012\u20111. <\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

          \n

          NOTE 5 In cases where items or features fitted to a WAV are optional, the requirements applicable to them only apply where fitted.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
