Resumen del asunto

Con respecto al artículo 86 (3)(b) de la norma NSC 10, dado que a los oficiales anteriores se les enseñó la norma de medir el voladizo en el último punto de contacto con el remolque y, según la inspección de AB observada en el control de carretera, AB aplica la norma anterior, hemos escuchado una nueva interpretación de la capacidad de carga medida al final del remolque, independientemente de si el contenedor intermodal está en contacto con la plataforma en el punto más posterior. Esto se refiere a un remolque tipo "dove", donde el remolque se inclina hacia abajo con un contenedor sobresaliendo.

Justificación o necesidad

Aclaración sobre dónde medimos los 1,5 m de un contenedor intermodal vacío en un remolque Dove.

Solicitud de acción

Aclaración sobre dónde medimos los 1,5 m de un contenedor intermodal vacío sobre un remolque Dove. ¿Medimos desde el último punto donde se unieron el contenedor y el remolque Dove o continuamos midiendo desde la parte trasera del vehículo?

Medidas adoptadas por el comité

NSC Standard 10 has an interpretation that covers this question (Division 6, Question 5. Page 22 – pertains to B-Trains but same theory - The overhang is measured from the rear of the deck or cargo carrying area of the lead semitrailer on B Trains (not from the extended frame which supports the fifth wheel). FMCSA indicated that 393.126 d.(2) specifies the end of the trailer, so in the US, it would be the end of the trailer itself.

This group would have to figure out if we want to make a change to the regulation for the dove tail portion. In theory, you could have a 3’ (1.5 m) dove tail and another 3’ (1.5 m) overhang past the end of the dove tail which would result in 3 meters of the container not in contact with the trailer. FMCSA suggested that it may be reasonable to require an additional tiedown right where the dove tail begins to ensure adequate securement in these cases.

It was concluded that the US will measure for the end of the trailer and Canada will follow their guidance below:

NSC 10 Guidance: Overhang on Empty Intermodal Containers NSC Standard 10 (section 86 (3)(b) indicates that an empty container cannot “overhang either the front or rear of the vehicle by more than 1.5 metres”. For containers which overhang the rear of the lead semitrailer on a B Train, where is this measurement taken?

Comments: The overhang is measured from the rear of the deck or cargo carrying area of the lead semitrailer on B Trains (not from the extended frame which supports the fifth wheel).

Comments: The overhang is measured from the rear of the deck or cargo carrying area of the lead semitrailer on B Trains (not from the extended frame which supports the fifth wheel).

The Canadian representatives in the room indicated that they believed the Canadian guidance should be updated.
