Key Technology Evolution

Compared with the 2003 version of the standard, the 2024 version has the following major updates:

• Redefined the working space based on the parameters of DLAK 23/12 aerial ladder truck
• Adjusted the ground bearing standard from 800kN/m² to 80N/cm²
• Added compatibility requirements for automatic rotating aerial ladders
• Clarified the application specifications of the electronic identification system

Implementation Points

Typical Application Scenarios

A commercial complex project requires the following:

1. A circular fire escape (4.5m wide, 15m turning radius)
2. Two aerial ladder truck work areas (5.5m×11m, 8m from the building)
3. Underground garage roof reinforcement (load-bearing verification 16t+5kN/m²)

The use of DIN 4066 standard signage and a hydraulic lifting bollard system are required.
