Abstract:

This project was conducted as part of the Standards Development Program Cooperative Agreement with the Federal Transit Administration's (FTA’s) Research, Demonstration and Innovation and Transit Safety Oversight offices. This project includes (1) background research and analysis on needs and gaps for new standards related to transit crashworthiness and crash energy management (CEM), including a summary of transportation modes where standards are lacking, (2) existing standards implemented into industry related to crashworthiness and CEM, and (3) industry survey results on the use of the standards for newly-procured equipment. Findings are presented for FTA’s consideration related to development of standards, protocols, guidelines, or recommended practices related to transit crashworthiness and CEM.
