Explanation of Terms
Peak Deceleration (Front/Rear)
This is the maximum recorded G Force (m/s2)
detected during the test, in the front to rear direction.
Average Deceleration
This refers to the average G Force (m/s2) over the
duration of the test., in the front to rear direction.
Peak Acceleration (Left/Right)
This is the maximum recorded G Force (m/s2)
detected during the test, in the left or right direction.
NOTE: This feature is included for reference only.
There may not be any regulatory data available to
determine if a test result should be considered a
Pass or Fail result.
Road camber, tyre condition, driver action and so on
may cause a test vehicle to pull off centre under
heavy braking. If the pull is noticeable, it is
suggested that the brake components be checked for
signs of wear or leaks etc.
Vehicle pulls to the Left (or Right)
This is an indication of the direction from centre the
vehicle is deviating toward during the test.
Stopping Distance (metres):
This is an estimate of the distance the vehicle travels
from commencement of braking to complete stop. It
is calculated from Average Deceleration and the test
time.
Test Speed (km/h):
This is an estimate of the speed at which the vehicle
was travelling when braking was commenced. It is
calculated from Average Deceleration and Stopping
Distance.
Brake Efficiency:
This is an expression of braking performance (%). It
is calculated from Test Speed and Stopping Distance
and can be compared with statutory requirements.
