Bibliography

from CEN/TC 188 N362: The revision of EN 14973 should be started to bring it in line with the revised EN 12881-1 and EN 12881-2. (see Resolution 2/2011). The experts present agree that an Annex should be added to EN 14973 to specify that Family approval for belts is possible. Resolution 2/2011: The experts present agree that general revision of EN 14973 and EN 12882 is needed due to the work being done on EN 12881-1 and EN 12881-2.
