ABSTRACT:
A system and method for providing braking to a vehicle having at least two brake sets intended to deliver braking forces for a decelerating rate in response to a braking force request wherein each brake set has surplus braking available. In the event one brake set fails or becomes unavailable, then the surplus available in the other braking set may be utilized to satisfy this deficit, thereby providing the requested braking rate to the vehicle.
