COMPARATIVE TESTING Road tests must be conducted at several Control Signal levels for several values of each variable data entry. These tests should be performed for each trailer configuration included in the computer simulation. The tests shall be conducted in accordance with the Service Brake Effectiveness requirements in ADR 38. The results of these comparative tests shall be reported in a format directly comparable with the results obtained from the computer simulation. REPORTING PROCEDURE The report of the computer simulation results should use a format similar to the submission of evidence Form CB 38. The report should be prepared by a nominated computer simulation supervisor. LIMITATION OF SUITABILITY The computer simulation will be suitable only for those trailer types and configurations for which satisfactory comparative testing has been conducted. The application should clearly state for which trailer types and configurations the simulation is considered to be suitable (e.g. with S-cam air brakes and 4 and 6 spring suspensions).
