2. Tire code - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_code

   These two codes allow one to look up the required cold inflation pressure to carry a given load, according to the load inflation charts or tables. The load tables are too large to include in this article, but may be found at tirepressure.org. [9] Generally, tire codes with a preceding "P" shall reference the P Metric Tire Load Inflation Chart ...

3. Uniform Tire Quality Grading - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniform_Tire_Quality_Grading

   These represent the tire's resistance to the generation of heat at speed. Tires graded A effectively dissipate heat up to a maximum speed that is greater than 115 mph. B rates at a maximum between 100 mph and 115 mph. C rates at a maximum of between 85 mph to 100 mph. Tires that cannot grade up to C or higher cannot be sold in the US. [9]

4. Tire uniformity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_uniformity

   The upper chuck lowers to make contact with the upper bead. The tire is inflated to the set point pressure. The load wheel advances to contact the tire and apply the set loading force. The spindle drive accelerates the tire to the test speed. Once speed, force, and pressure are stable, load cells measure the force exerted on the load wheel by ...

5. Tire load sensitivity - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_load_sensitivity

   Tire load sensitivity describes the behaviour of tires under load. Conventional pneumatic tires do not behave as classical friction theory would suggest. The load sensitivity of most real tires in their typical operating range is such that the coefficient of friction decreases as the vertical load, Fz, increases.

6. Tire manufacturing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tire_manufacturing

   Tire balance measurement is a test where the tire is automatically placed on wheel halves, rotated at a high speed and measured for imbalance. Large commercial truck/bus tires, as well as some passenger and light truck tires, are inspected by X-ray or magnetic induction based inspection machines, that can penetrate the rubber to analyze the ...

7. Rolling resistance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_resistance

   Figure 1 Hard wheel rolling on and deforming a soft surface, resulting in the reaction force R from the surface having a component that opposes the motion. (W is some vertical load on the axle, F is some towing force applied to the axle, r is the wheel radius, and both friction with the ground and friction at the axle are assumed to be negligible and so are not shown.

8. Ground pressure - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ground_pressure

   Ground pressure is the pressure exerted on the ground by the tires or tracks of a motorized vehicle, and is one measure of its potential mobility, [1] especially over soft ground. It also applies to the feet of a walking person or machine. Pressure is measured in the SI unit of pascals (Pa).

9. Fiberglass reinforced plastic grating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiberglass_reinforced...

   Fiberglass reinforced plastic grating (also known as FRP grating, glass reinforced plastic grating or fiberglass grating) is a composite material manufactured by combining a matrix of resin and fiberglass. Fiberglass grating does not corrode like steel grating and is therefore used in corrosive environments to reduce maintenance costs.
