Tyre Width Calculation

Max. Tyre Pressure 5.273 kg/cm^2

Load of vehicle = 17.0 t

2.790 m

17.0 8.5

0.199 m 0.860 m

Tyre width = 0.860 - 0.05 = 0.810 m

Tyre pressure = 5.273 kg/cm^2 = 52.7 t/m^2
Length along traffic direction =
8.5 / 52.7 / 0.810 = 0.199 m

12.0 6.0

0.140 m 0.860 m

Tyre width = 0.860 - 0.05 = 0.810 m

Tyre pressure = 5.273 kg/cm^2 = 52.7 t/m^2
Length along traffic direction =
6.0 / 52.7 / 0.810 = 0.140 m

Load of vehicle = 8.0 t

2.790 m
8.0 4.0

0.094 m 0.860 m

Tyre width = 0.860 - 0.05 = 0.810 m

Tyre pressure = 5.273 kg/cm^2 = 52.7 kN/m^2
Length along traffic direction =
4.0 / 52.7 / 0.810 = 0.094 m

Longitudinal Dispersion=Tyre contact length in the direction of span+2(Depth of slab + Wearing coat)
0.199 + 0.27 + 0.450 + 0.065 )= 0.984 m

0.199 + 2 x( 0.450 + 0.065 )= 1.229 m

0.140 + 2 x( 0.450 + 0.065 )= 1.170 m

0.094 + 2 x( 0.450 + 0.065 )= 1.124 m
