Practice question

A wheelchair occupant restraint (lap/shoulder belt) anchor is mounted to a thin floor panel instead of a reinforced anchorage. Why is this unacceptable?

  1. Occupant restraint anchors must transfer crash loads into rated structural anchorage, not weak sheet metal
  2. Any mounting point is acceptable for belts
  3. Belt anchors carry no load
  4. Sheet metal is stronger than reinforced anchorage

Answer: A — Occupant restraint anchors must transfer crash loads into rated structural anchorage, not weak sheet metal
