Standard Practice for Calibration of Braking/Tractive Measuring Devices for Testing Tires

Summary

1.1 This practice gives procedures for the calibration of:

reference load cells

calibration platform systems by using a reference load cell

static calibration of braking/tractive force on locked wheels of tire test trailers, instrumented vehicles, and laboratory tire testing machines by using the calibration platform system as a calibration fixture.

1.2 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. The values in parentheses are for information only.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use.
