Motorcycle Technical Steering Committee
This SAE Recommended Practice establishes harmonized test methods for measuring volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from polyurethane foam materials used in automotive interior applications. This recommended practice complements SAE J2989 by providing standardized emission collection methods, analytical procedures, and reporting formats to ensure consistent and comparable results across different testing laboratories and organizations. The methods discussed in this recommended practice include micro-scale chambers, small-scale chambers, bag methods, thermal extraction techniques, and bottle methods for aldehyde determination. This standard addresses the unique challenges presented by polyurethane foam materials, including their high surface area, absorption capacity, and sensitivity to environmental conditions. The selection of the appropriate test method shall be primarily determined by customer requirements or OEM specifications, as these requirements often dictate the specific test protocol needed for material approval or compliance. When customer requirements are not specified, the selected method should be based on available laboratory capabilities, sample size constraints, testing timeline requirements, and the intended use of the results. This recommended practice provides guidance on the appropriate conditions and limitations for each method to ensure consistent and comparable results across different testing approaches. The standardization of these testing methodologies is essential for reducing the variability currently observed across the automotive industry. By providing clear guidance on specimen preparation, test conditions, analytical procedures, and reporting formats, this standard aims to facilitate meaningful comparison of results, reduce testing costs, and improve product development and quality control efforts. This recommended practice applies to both molded polyurethane foam components such as seating cushions and backrests, and slab stock foam materials used in automotive interior applications. The guidance in this document is intended to reduce ambiguity, improve reproducibility, and provide comparable results across different testing facilities.

This document provides directions for obtaining certification through Probitas Authentication®1 and the low mu/winter driving skill examination requirements. This document is a supplement to SAE J3300, providing information specific to the low mu/winter driving skill certification and clarifying the application of the rules set forth in SAE J3300 to the low mu/winter driving certification. While the references, definitions, rules, and guidelines presented in SAE J3300, Sections 1 through 5 apply to the low mu/winter driving certification, they are not repeated in this document.
Driving Skills Standards Committee
This document describes [motor] vehicle driving automation systems that perform part or all of the dynamic driving task (DDT) on a sustained basis. It provides a taxonomy with detailed definitions for levels of driving automation, ranging from no driving automation (Level 0) to automated driving under all conditions in which humans can drive, with human driving not needed (Level 5), in the context of [motor] vehicles (hereafter also referred to as “vehicle” or “vehicles”) and their operation on roadways: Level 0: No driving automation Level 1: Driver support for steering OR speed, with continual driver supervision necessary and driver intervention when needed Level 2: Driver support for steering AND speed, with continual driver supervision necessary and driver intervention when needed Level 3: Automated driving under defined conditions, with human driving needed following an alert or evident vehicle malfunction Level 4: Automated driving under defined conditions, with human driving not needed to mitigate risk Level 5: Automated driving under all conditions in which humans can drive, with human driving not needed. The simple level descriptors have been changed to improve understanding of the differences among levels, but these are NOT the definitions of the levels of driving automation. See the definitions of each automation level in Sections 4 and 5 for explanation of these changes. These level definitions, along with additional supporting terms and definitions provided herein, can be used to describe the full range of driving automation features equipped on [motor] vehicles in a functionally consistent and coherent manner. “On-road” refers to publicly accessible roadways (including parking areas and private campuses that permit public access) that collectively serve all road users, including cyclists, pedestrians, and users of vehicles with and without driving automation features. The levels apply to the driving automation feature(s) that are engaged in any given instance of on-road operation of an equipped vehicle. As such, although a given vehicle may be equipped with a driving automation system that is capable of delivering multiple driving automation features that perform at different levels, the level of driving automation exhibited in any given instance is determined by the feature(s) that are engaged. This document also refers to three primary actors in driving: the (human) user, the driving automation system, and other vehicle systems and components. These other vehicle systems and components (or the vehicle in general terms) do not include the driving automation system in this model, even though as a practical matter a driving automation system may actually share hardware and software components with other vehicle systems, such as a processing module(s) or operating code. The levels of driving automation are defined by reference to the specific role played by each of the three primary actors in performance of the DDT and/or DDT fallback. “Role” in this context refers to the expected role of a given primary actor, based on the design of the driving automation system in question and not necessarily to the actual performance of a given primary actor. For example, a driver who fails to monitor the roadway during engagement of a Level 1 adaptive cruise control (ACC) system still has the role of driver, even while they are neglecting it. Active safety systems, such as electronic stability control (ESC) and automatic emergency braking (AEB), and certain types of driver assistance systems, such as lane keeping assistance (LKA), are excluded from the scope of this driving automation taxonomy because they do not perform part or all of the DDT on a sustained basis, but rather provide momentary intervention during potentially hazardous situations. Due to the momentary nature of the actions of active safety systems, their intervention does not change or eliminate the role of the driver in performing part or all of the DDT, and thus are not considered to be driving automation, even though they perform automated functions. In addition, systems that inform, alert, or warn the driver about hazards in the driving environment are also outside the scope of this driving automation taxonomy, as they neither automate part or all of the DDT, nor change the driver’s role in performance of the DDT (see 8.13). It should be noted, however, that crash avoidance features, including intervention-type active safety systems, may be included in vehicles equipped with driving automation systems at any level. For automated driving system (ADS) features (i.e., Levels 3 to 5) that perform the entire DDT, crash mitigation and avoidance capability is part of ADS functionality (see also 8.13). Note that this document provides a taxonomy and definitions and is not a safety standard. The document is not intended to provide guidance for safe vehicle operation by the driving automation system.

Truck and Bus Wheel Committee
The intent of the specification is to present a functional set of requirements which define the user and hardware interfaces while providing sufficient capability to meet the misfire patterns for compliance demonstration and engineering development. Throughout this requirement, any reference to “ignition or injector control signal” is used interchangeably to infer that the effected spark ignition engine’s ignition control signal or the compression ignition engine’s injector control signal is interrupted, timing phased, or directly passed by the misfire generator. For spark ignition engines, the misfire generator behaves as a spark-defeat device which induces misfires by inhibiting normal ignition coil discharge. It does so by monitoring the vehicle’s ignition timing signals and suspends ignition coil saturation for selected cylinder firing events. The misfire generator will thereby induce engine misfire in spark ignited gasoline internal combustion engines; including rotary engines. For compression ignition engines, the misfire generator behaves as a fuel injection-defeat device which induces misfire by inhibiting the normal fuel injection pulses. It does so by monitoring the injection pulses signal and suspending the injection pulses for selected cylinder firing events. The misfire generator will thereby induce engine misfire in compression ignition engines. This requirement assumes that the user has a fundamental understanding of misfire diagnostics as well as ignition controls. This requirement is not intended to be an introductory misfire guideline or interpretation of regulatory requirements.
Vehicle E E System Diagnostic Standards Committee
The test procedure applies to the refueling manifold system connecting the receiver aircraft fuel tanks to the refueling source fuel pump(s) for both ground and aerial refueling. The test procedure is intended to verify that the limit value for surge pressure specified for the receiver fuel system is not exceeded when refueling from a refueling source which meets the requirements of AS1284 (reference 2). This recommended practice is not directly applicable to surge pressure developed during operation of an aircraft fuel system, such as initiating or stopping engine fuel feed or fuel transfer within an aircraft, or the pressure surge produced when the fuel pumps are first started to fill an empty fuel manifold.

This document covers information concerning the use of oxygen when flying into and out of high elevation airports for both pressurized and non-pressurized aircraft. Oxygen requirements for pressurized aircraft operating at high altitudes have for decades emphasized the potential failures that could lead to a loss of cabin pressurization coupled with the potential severe hypoxic hazard that decompressions represent. This document is intended to address the case where the relationship between cabin and ambient pressures are complicated by operations at high terrestrial altitudes. Operators who fly into these high-altitude airports should address the issues related to this environment because it carries the potential for insidious hypoxia and other conditions which can affect safety. It provides information to consider in developing operational procedures to address hypoxia concerns consistent with regulatory mandates. In some sections, procedures are discussed that may mitigate the deleterious effects of hypoxia in a non-flight regime yet still have the potential to represent risk factors associated with flight operations. All the information is provided as a framework for potential oxygen management and other procedures to facilitate responsible practices and facilitate compliance with existing regulatory requirements. This document cannot address every type of aircraft pressurization system, oxygen system, or operational condition the flight may encounter. Any threat or hazard not discussed in AIR6829 should be brought to the attention of the OEM, the regulatory authority, and the flight operations department for proper guidance.
A-10 Aircraft Oxygen Equipment Committee
The provisions of this SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) cover minimum performance requirements and design parameters for preconditioned air (PCA) devices supplying air to the aircraft cabin. It identifies the need for interim and future performance improvement for ground equipment delivery systems, to meet industry requirements for reducing airborne compounds or particulates (“source types”) in the aircraft cabin and flight deck. This ARP will guide SAE, IATA, airline operators, and airframe and PCA manufacturers to meet new requirements. This ARP defines: Minimum performance and maintenance requirements for filtration, hose assemblies, operations, and maintenance. Level of humidity supplied by the ground equipment to the aircraft cabin. Minimum performance and maintenance requirements for digital communication of cabin parameters between the cabin and the PCA. Installation of the sensor unit within the aircraft cabin. The data collected by these sensors is not intended to assess impacts on aircraft occupant health and shall not be used to make a finding of airworthiness.
