ASAE/ASABE S360.1 – Test Procedure & Performance Criteria for the Undercarriage Load Carrying Ability of Farm Materials transport Equipment

1 Purpose and Scope

1.1 This Standard provides a uniform method for determining capacity ratings of two different types ofwheeled under-carriages used to transport agricultural materials as a towed implement. They include type (a)the farm wagon running gear and type (b) where the under-carriage components are integral with theenclosure. The Standard provides minimum acceptable performance criteria.

1.2 This Standard relates to farm materials transport towed implements having two or more axles. Steeringmeans for the front axle include auto-steer or fifth wheel type.
