SAE J1505_202210

This SAE Recommended Practice provides the test procedure and instructions for air braked single unit trucks, buses, and combination vehicles. Brake force distribution testing with systems post-reduced stopping distance changes is still appropriate; however, vehicles with electronically controlled braking systems are not covered in this document and may need to be addressed in the future. It also provides recommendations for:

a Instrumentation and equipment.

b Vehicle preparation.

c Calculating distribution of brake force.
