3.2.1 Terms
Technically speaking, the term "mass" has now replaced the term
"weight". However, "weight" is still the term more frequent in common
use. For better understanding, "mass" is therefore only used in the fol-
lowing sections for fixed formulations.
The maximum permissible gross weight in a laden condition is the weight
that a vehicle may never exceed.
The maximum permissible gross weight in a laden condition consists of the
actual weight
and the
payload
.
In the vehicle documents, the manufacturer has specified the maximum per-
missible gross weight in a laden condition.
The actual weight consists of the mass in ready-to-drive condition and the
weight of the special equipment fitted at the factory.
The mass in ready-to-drive condition is the weight of the ready-to-drive
standard vehicle (excluding special equipment fitted at the factory).
The mass in ready-to-drive condition is made up as follows:
Unladen weight (mass of the empty vehicle) with factory-installed stand-
ard equipment (excluding special equipment fitted at the factory)
Driver's weight
Basic equipment weight
Unladen weight includes lubricants such as oils and coolants which have
been filled, the on-board tool set and a fuel tank which has been filled up to
90 %.
75 kg are calculated for the weight of the driver, regardless of how much the
driver really weighs.
Basic equipment includes all equipment and fluids required for safe and
proper vehicle use. The weight of the basic equipment includes:
A full fresh water system
A gas bottle filled up to 100 %
A full heating system
The power cables for the 230 V power supply
A full toilet flushing system
The installation kit for an auxiliary battery if an auxiliary battery can be
used
The waste water and sewage tanks are empty.
Example for calculating
the basic equipment
Water tank with 20 l (during the journey)
20 kg
Gas bottle (11 kg
gas
+ 14 kg
bottle
)
+ 25 kg
Boiler with 12 l
+ 12 kg
230 V power cable
+ 4 kg
Installation kit for auxiliary battery
+ 20 kg
Total
= 81 kg
The weight in ready-to-drive condition and the actual weight are shown by
the manufacturer in the vehicle documents.
