Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents ).

This first edition of ISO 21308-1 cancels and replaces ISO/PAS 21308-1:2007, which has been technically revised. The main changes compared to the previous edition are:

— an update of the BEP coding principles in Table 1; and

— the addition of new Annexes A and B.

A list of all parts in the ISO 21308 series can be found on the ISO website.

Introduction

Truck chassis manufacturers deal with configuration of chassis in infinite numbers of possible combinations, and bodywork manufacturers produce highly customised superstructures on these chassis. Bodywork manufacturers build their superstructures on chassis of several different truck brands.

The production efficiency of a specific truck chassis and its body combinations can be greatly improved by achieving the correct technical and commercial information about the specific chassis communicated with the bodywork manufacturer in advance. The information has to be reliable and give the bodywork manufacturer confidence to prefabricate the body or the superstructure before the chassis is delivered. With uniform conditions, unambiguous dimensions and supplementary information can be established, transferred and correctly interpreted by the receiver. Increased information efficiency will improve the quality and reduce the lead times.

ISO 21308 specifies a system of codes to exchange specific data between chassis and bodywork manufacturers, providing a platform for efficient communication between the parties. The process of exchanging data according to this document is irrelevant of IT sophistication degree.

Exchanging codes according to ISO 21308 is useful in various situations, e.g. for the design and manufacturing, technical specifications, technical drawings and leaflets.

ISO 21308 uses the applicable definitions from the related ISO 612 and ISO 7656 and adds a number of dimensional codes, together with general, mass and administrative codes.

1 Scope

This document series describes a generic system for the exchange of data between truck chassis manufacturers and bodywork manufacturers. It applies to commercial vehicles as defined in ISO 3833, having a maximum gross vehicle mass above 3 500 kg.

The process of exchanging product data can involve:

• chassis manufacturer;
• chassis importer;
• chassis dealer;
• one or more bodywork manufacturers; and
• bodywork component suppliers, e.g. manufacturers of demountable bodies, cranes and loading equipment, tipping equipment.

This document describes the general principles and provides an overview and recommendations to assist the parties implementing BEP codes for their communication process. The recommendations cover different ways to communicate and present the BEP codes. In particular, the application of XML for communication of BEP codes in an unambiguous way is described.
