  • Brake Adjuster's Handbook
    STATE OF CALIFORNIA HANDBOOK FOR BRAKE ADJUSTERS May 2015 BUREAU OF AUTOMOTIVE REPAIR BRAKE ADJUSTERS’ HANDBOOK FOREWORD This Handbook is intended to serve as a reference for Official Brake Adjusting Stations and as study material for licensed brake adjusters and persons desiring to be licensed as adjusters. See the applicable Candidate Handbook for further information. This handbook includes a short history of the development of automotive braking equipment, and the procedures for licensing of Official Brake Adjusting Stations and Official Brake Adjusters. In addition to the information contained in this Handbook, persons desiring to be licensed as adjusters must possess a knowledge of vehicle braking systems, adjustment techniques and repair procedures sufficient to ensure that all work is performed correctly and with due regard for the safety of the motoring public. This handbook will not supply all the information needed to pass a licensing exam. No attempt has been made to relate the information contained herein to the specific design of a particular manufacturer. Accordingly, each official brake station must maintain as references the current service manuals and technical instructions appropriate to the types and designs of brake systems serviced, inspected and repaired by the brake station. Installation, repair and adjustment of motor vehicle brake equipment shall be performed in accordance with applicable laws, regulations and the current instructions and specifications of the manufacturer. Periodically, supplemental bulletins may be distributed by the Bureau of Automotive Repair (BAR or Bureau) containing information regarding changes in laws, regulations or technical procedures concerning the inspection, servicing, repair and adjustment of vehicle braking equipment.

Abstract: In this project, the design and development of integrated chassis of three wheeler prototype vehicle chassis is done, to convert the three wheeler passenger vehicle chassis into a load carrier chassis with the aim of reducing the tooling cost and increasing the rate of production. For this, the analysis is carried out by using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The parameters checked in the analysis are the displacement of the chassis structure and stresses under static condition. The modeling of new chassis is done by using PRO-E and FEA by using ANSYS. Specifications of materials selection become a priority in order to construct the new chassis, based on the results of FEA we selected CRS-D grade (Cold Rolled Steel) of thickness 1.6mm. The best design with minimum self-weight, maximum load capacity and minimum deflection under static loading was then identified based on the results obtained through FEA. Keywords: FEA, CRS-D, Monocoque. I. INTRODUCTION Advantages: Chassis is a French term and was initially used to denote The half-axles have better contact with ground when the frame parts or basic structure of the Vehicle.

Materials contained in this publication are subject to copyright. Neither the manual nor any part thereof may be reproduced in whole or in part without prior written permission from Alberta Transportation and/or the CCMTA. INFORMATION FOR INSPECTION TECHNICIANS Thank you for participating in Alberta’s Commercial Vehicle Inspection Program. Alberta has adopted the Canadian Council of Motor Transport Administrators 2014 National Safety Code STANDARD 11, Part B (NSC11B) for the Periodic Commercial Motor Vehicle Inspections of vehicles in Alberta. The NSC11B is part of Alberta’s Commercial Vehicle Inspection manual. The usage of the NSC11B is legislated by Alberta’s Vehicle Inspection Regulation, section 22, Adoption of manuals. The purpose of the NSC11B is to establish mechanical vehicle inspection criteria for trucks, trailers, and buses. It provides a description of the vehicle inspection criteria and procedures to ensure that quality inspections are performed. The NSC11B has been adopted across Canada and harmonizes every inspection to the same criteria. The result of this harmonization is that every province recognizes other jurisdiction’s inspections on commercial vehicles.
