TEST 2: SLOPE STABILITY <br />TEST DESCRIPTION: This test checks the static stability of an empty and loaded Plastic Refuse Container on <br />a defined slope (5 degrees to the horizontal). <br />DATE: September 7, 2016 <br />SUBJECT: Plastic Refuse Container <br />PRODUCT IDENTIFICATION: Rehrig 95 EG ROC <br />MINIMUM PERFORMANCE STANDARD: ANSI Z245.30 (paragraph 7.2.4.2.3 and Appendix B) requires that <br />the ROC must stand, without tipping or moving, in three different orientations on a defined slope. <br />TEST PROCEDURE: <br />1. Prepare a ramp with a slope of 5 degrees. The ramp must be of sufficient size that a cart can be <br />moved onto the cart with no portion of the cart overhanging the edges of the ramp. <br />2. There is to be no wind. <br />3. Move an empty cart onto the ramp and orient the cart with the front of the cart facing up the <br />ramp. Note any tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the front of the cart is facing sideways <br />on the ramp. Note any tipping or movement. Turn the cart so that the front of the cart is facing <br />down the ramp. Note any tipping or movement. <br />4. Repeat step two with the cart loaded to the standard loading as specified in the ANSI standard, <br />paragraph 7.2.4.2.2 (maximum rated/marked load, non-hydroscopic material either loose or in 5 <br />kilogram bags, occupying at least 70% of the capacity of the ROC). <br />The rated load for this ROC is 332.5 lbs. <br />TEST RESULTS: <br />Orientation <br />Result <br />Empty Front facing upward <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) <br />Stable <br />Front facing downward <br />Stable <br />Filled (with 332.5 lbs) Front facing upward <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (right) <br />Stable <br />Front facing sideways (left) <br />Stable <br />Front facing downward <br />Stable <br />SUMMARY: The ROC passed the ANSI Z245.30 standards since non -movement in three orientations is <br />met. <br />Appendix 2: Test setup photos. <br />SETE 6E4 September 28, 2016 Page 3 of 16 <br />
