ISO 8349 Road Vehicles - Test for Measuring Road Surface Friction

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 8349 testing. This International standard specifies test methods for determining the characteristic longitudinal friction force values ​​of paved surfaces using a standard reference test tire or tire of a vehicle under test.

ISO 8349 Road Vehicles - Test for Measuring Road Surface Friction

General test procedures and their validity are presented for determining peak and slip braking coefficients on real test surfaces where surface conditions are determined and controlled by the user during testing. Test and test surface condition documentation procedures and details are also specified.

The purpose of this International Standard is to harmonize test results in different test paths. The values ​​measured with standard reference test tires (SRTT) are intended to form standard reference numbers representing the friction characteristics of test tracks and road surfaces representing passenger car tires.

Some methods may also be suitable for measuring the frictional properties of a particular test car tire on the test track. The values ​​quantify the peak, near-peak, or slip braking coefficients during testing and do not necessarily represent fixed values. Values ​​measured with reference tires are considered as reference numbers denoting specific friction characteristics of test tracks and road surfaces.

This International standard does not purport to address all safety issues associated with its use. It is the user's responsibility to consult and establish appropriate safety and health practices and to determine the applicability of regulatory restrictions prior to use.
