BS ISO 28580:2018

This standard BS ISO 28580:2018 Passenger car, truck and bus tyre rolling resistance measurement method. Single point test and correlation of measurement results is classified in these ICS categories:

• 83.160.01 Tyres in general
• 83.160.10 Road vehicle tyres

This document specifies methods for measuring rolling resistance, under controlled laboratory conditions, for new pneumatic tyres designed primarily for use on passenger cars, trucks and buses. This document is not applicable to tyres intended for temporary use only. It includes a method for correlating measurement results to allow inter-laboratory comparisons. It is designed to facilitate international cooperation and, possibly, regulation building.

Measurement of tyres using this method enables comparisons to be made between the rolling resistance of new test tyres when they are free-rolling straight ahead, in a position perpendicular to the drum outer surface, and in steady-state conditions.
