RECOMMENDATIONS ON THE TRANSPORT OF DANGEROUS GOODS. EIGHTH REVISED EDITION
These recommendations have been developed by the United Nations Committee of Experts on the Transport of Dangerous Goods in the light of technical progress, the advent of new substances and materials, the exigences of modern transport systems and the requirement to ensure the safety of people, property and the environment. The recommendations cover principles of classification and definitions of classes, listing of the principal dangerous goods, general packing requirements, testing procedures, marking, labelling or placarding, and transport documents. There are also special recommendations related to particular classes of goods.
