Tyre load pressure / bearing effect
Tyre load pressure / bearing effect
(OP)
Guys,
Need your help here if possible. I am currently working for a transportation company doing platform trailers or so called heavy haulage.
Currently i am studying on the ground pressure effect from tyres and i have been searching the net for some info but can never find a solid one on this. can anybody help me?
how do i calculate the bearing pressure effect from the laden load to the tyres and finally to the ground? Also what is an accurate tyre-contact-area technically?
is it true that the bearing load from the tyre is equivalent to the tyre inflation pressure? or is there any other co-efficients involved. I don't quite understand this actually.
Can anybody kindly help me or lead me to the right path? have been searcing in and out but to no avail. Maybe i searched wrongly. Anyway hoping for some light from the many 'sifus' here..thanks in advance.

If the tire pressure is 2 kg/cm2, and the weight on the tire is 500 KG, look for a contact patch of 500/2, or 125 square CM.
Adding more weight compresses the air slightly but flattens the contact patch to put more area on the road surface.
