Introduction

Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations.

Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence.

Purpose. The purpose of this procedure is to identify the Road Load Data Acquisition (RLDA) or Virtual Road Load Data Acquisition (vRLDA) analysis channels that are to be recorded or calculated for common laboratory tests.

Applicability. This standard is intended to provide baseline guidance for channel selection when planning an RLDA for Structural Durability Laboratory testing (See GMWs listed in Appendix A). In all cases, it may be necessary to add or modify channels for a given test, but the listed channels will typically allow development of a good, accurate laboratory test.
