On Aug. 3, 2011 at 2:30pm, engineers at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center, home to the research and development laboratories of the Federal Highway Administration, conducted a full-scale vehicle crash test (test #11005) on a 2006 Kia Rio 4-door sedan. The vehicle was accelerated into an instrumented rigid pole traveling at 50 km/hr to collect data on the vehicle's crush characteristics, pole impact loads, and occupant risk measures. The test data will serve various purposes, but initially it will be used to develop frontal crush criteria appropriate for use under the new Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware (MASH) with bogie (re-usable surrogate) test vehicles. The crush criteria will the Federal Outdoor Impact Lab (FOIL) and other test labs to represent the 1100 kg vehicles required under MASH with bogie vehicles to reduce the cost of testing without compromising data quality. The test also served as the FOIL accreditation assessment test under which the lab received ISO 17025 accreditation. [NOTE: Uncaptioned; no narration; no speakers.]
