Proposal for an amendment of Regulation No. 13
(Netherlands)
Description
|
Proposal to delete a redundant requirement. The paragraphs 2.2. and 2.2.1. are superfluous since paragraph 5.2.2.13. already requires all O4 trailers to be equipped with Anti-lock Braking Systems (ABS) of Category A.

83rd GRRF session (23-27
Jan 2017)
12. The expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/2 proposing to delete an obsolete provision in Annex 5 to Regulation No. 13. He recalled the context of this proposal, originally suggested by the expert from the Netherlands the ninety-nine session of the Working Party on the Transport of Dangerous Goods (WP.15) and considered at the 168th session of WP.29 (WP.29-168-16). He added that this proposal took into consideration the comments received at the previous session of GRRF (see ECE/TRANS/WP29/GRRF/82, para. 11).
13. GRRF adopted the proposal and requested the secretariat to keep it on the agenda for the next session.
90. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/9, Annex 21, paragraph 2.1.4., second subparagraph, amend to read:
“Additionally, interventions by systems related to the vehicle stability function (including traction control, trailer stability assist, corner brake control, other similar functions that use throttle individual torque control to operate and share common components with vehicle stability function, and ESC or VSF intervention on the steering angle of one or more wheels for the purpose of vehicle stability) may also be indicated to the driver by this flashing optical warning signal.”

Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 55
Description

UN R55 informal group proposal for: - An amendment for the separation of the procedures to verify towable mass from the procedure of setting and certifying performance values;
- An amendment that adds procedures to verify towable mass for vehicle combinations that have hitherto not been accounted for in the Regulation;
- Amendments that adds integrated fixing points for secondary couplings;
- An amendment that clarifies the procedure to identify worst cases for certification testing;
- Amendments that removes typos in the current Regulation.
Please note that, under paragraph 3.4 regarding “Combination 4”, the Clevis coupling formula should read “DC” rather than “D” as shown.

Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 106
(ETRTO)
Description
|
Regulation No. 106 contains standardized tyre sizes, which often need to be updated, following the technical progress. In order to accelerate the update process of the Regulation and limit the number of amendments, it is proposed to insert in a new Resolution the standardized sizes and to refer to this Resolution in Annex 5. As a temporary solution to assess the effectiveness of such proposal, the Annex 5 of Regulation No. 106 will be kept as it is with no further updates. After a trial period of approximately two years and upon confirmation of effectiveness, the complete Annex 5 of Regulation No. 106 would be transferred to this Resolution on Tyre Sizes.

GRRF noted that Annex 5 was containing non-metric tyre sizes not in line with the general formulae contained in the Regulation; therefore, GRRF wondered whether the right approach would be to introduce the appropriate formulae in the Regulation instead of continuously updating Annex 5. The expert from ETRTO agreed to address this proposal and to submit, if suitable, revised proposals for consideration at the next session.

55. The expert from the European Commission introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/8 proposing clarifications in Annex 6, dealing with the Complex Electronic provisions. The proposal received written comments (GRRF-83-20 and GRRF-83-24) from the experts from the Netherlands and from OICA. GRRF combined the comments received as reproduced in GRRF-83-29.
56. GRRF agreed with the Chair’s proposal to convene an informal meeting to further develop the document on the basis of the comments received. The expert from UK volunteered to convene a meeting end of April or beginning of May.
53. The expert from Germany introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/45, containing four options as possible ways forward to progress on ACSF. The Secretary of the IWG on Automatically Commanded Steering Function (ACSF) gave a presentation reporting on the progress made by the group (GRRF-82-17). He reported on definitions proposed for ACSF of Categories A to E, clarifications proposed for Corrective Steering Functions (CSF) and new provisions proposed for RCP. GRRF acknowledged the status report received and agreed to work on an amendment to Option 4 as proposed by GRRF-82-12. The proposal for Option 4 received several comments in GRRF-82-08, GRRF-82-09, GRRF-82-14, GRRF-82-15, GRRF-82-18, GRRF-82-19 and GRRF-82-26.
59. The expert from the European Commission presented GRRF-82-18 reporting on research activities looking for ways to improve Annex 6 on Complex Electronic Systems in Regulation No. 79 and introducing GRRF-82-19 with amendments to this annex. GRRF requested the secretariat to distribute GRRF-82-19 with an official symbol at its next session.
57. The GRRF chair mentioned that document ECE/TRANS/WP29/2018/35 would still contain square brackets. WP.29 agreed to remove the square brackets and to agree on transitional provision dates (as reflected in para. 92).
92. In ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2018/35, paragraphs 2.1.4., amend to read: 12.2.2. | As from 1 September 2019, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall not be obliged to accept UN type approvals to the preceding series (02) of amendments, first issued after 1 September 2019. | 12.2.3. | Until 1 September 2021, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall continue to accept UN type approvals to the preceding series (02) of amendments to the UN Regulation, first issued before 1 September 2019. | 12.2.4. | As from 1 September 2021, Contracting Parties applying this UN Regulation shall not be obliged to accept type approval issued to the preceding series of amendments to this UN Regulation. |
93. WP.29 noted the concern raised by the representative of OICA on the selection of an early date of application for the transitional provisions in paragraphs 12.2.3. and 12.2.4., which could create serious development difficulties, due to the introduction of new requirements compared to the very recently adopted 02 series of amendments, while vehicles are currently under development for the latter.

Proposal to: - Align definitions and contents of paragraphs with the other tyre regulations (UN R30, R54, R117, etc.);
- Include a definition of “Manufacturer” extracted from the resolution “R.E.3”;
- Adopt a common definition and use of the terms “Manufacturer’s name”," Brand name", “Trademark”, “Trade description” and “Commercial name” and their links;
- Clarify which markings shall be moulded on both sidewalls of the tyre; and those which shall be moulded on one sidewall only;
- Add information in the certificate to clarify the relationship with the certified products;
- Align definitions with Regulation EU 167/2013 which defines vehicles in category S as “interchangeable towed equipment” and includes tread patterns for ‘implement traction tyres’ that consist of blocks rather than lugs or cleats;
- Eliminate redundant marking requirements with the requirement for “@kPa” markings effective from 1 September 2017;
- Clarify the inflation pressure to be used for measurements and tests and related tyre markings;
- Align the current rules for calculating the dimensional limits in accordance with ISO, all major tyre standards, and as proposed for UN R30, R54, and R75;

38. The expert from ETRTO presented a revised proposal ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/9 with provisions which were already supported at the last session. He introduced the revised transitional provisions related to new marking requirements. The experts from EC and UK proposed an alternative wording (GRRF-83-14). Both proposals received several comments. Therefore GRRF agreed to adopt the agreed provisions that would not be subject to transitional provisions and to remove the others, as reproduced in GRRF-83-23.
39. GRRF requested the secretariat to submit the adopted proposals ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/9 amended by Annex VI (based on GRRF-83-23 and GRRF-83-15) as well as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/39 as draft Supplement 15 to Regulation No. 106 (Agricultural tyres) to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2017 sessions.
35. The expert from ETRTO presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/38, proposing amendments on tyre markings, similar amendments to those proposed by the expert from France (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/37) and harmonized provisions with those in another EU Regulation (namely Regulation EU 167/2013) which defines vehicles of Category S as “interchangeable towed equipment”. GRRF amended the proposal, as reflected in GRRF-82-24-Rev.1.
