30. The expert from ETRTO recalled ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/13 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/14, harmonizing the definitions used in Regulations Nos. 30 and 54 with those of the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117. The expert from Germany underlined that some proposed definitions diverged with those used within the European Union. The expert from France proposed in GRRF-71-31 to further develop the definition of snow tyre and to align the snow tyre markings requirements in Regulations Nos. 30, 54 and 117. GRRF agreed to continue consideration of that matter at its February 2012 session on the basis of a proposal prepared by France in collaboration with experts from Germany, the European Commission, OICA, ETRTO and all the interested experts (Focal point: Mr. Lescail from France: lescail@utac.com).
31. GRRF agreed to consider GRRF-71-28 at its next session and requested the secretariat to make it available with an official symbol.

25. Recalling the discussion on documents ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/14 at its previous GRRF session, the expert from France presented, on behalf of the ad hoc expert group on snow tyres, GRRF-72-13 clarifying the definition of “snow tyres” within Regulation No. 117. GRRF noted a number of comments. GRRF adopted the proposal as reproduced in Annex VII and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 at their November 2012 sessions as draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117. As new limit values have been inserted for normal traction tyres, GRRF agreed to submit it to the Working Party on Noise (GRB) for consideration at its next session in September 2012 and to also have a final review by GRRF at its September 2012 session.
26. Referring to ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/13, the expert from ETRTO introduced GRRF-72-10 proposing to align the definition of “snow tyres” in Regulation No. 30 with that of Regulation No. 117 (para. 25 above). GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/13 as reproduced in Annex III, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2012 sessions, as draft Supplement 17 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 30.
27. For the same purpose, the expert from ETRTO presented GRRF-72-11 amending ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/14 with respect to the definitions in Regulation No. 54. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/14 as reproduced in Annex IV, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2012 sessions, as draft Supplement 18 to Regulation No. 54.
28. The expert from ETRTO proposed to amend the regulatory markings for “temporary use spare tyres” (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/4). GRRF adopted the proposal (not amended) and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2012 sessions, as a part (see para. 26) of draft Supplement 17 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 30.
29. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/6 clarifying in Regulation No. 30 the requirements for the load/speed performance tests. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/6, not amended. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2012 sessions, as a part as part (see paras. 26 and 28) of draft Supplement 17 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 30.

18. The expert from the Russian Federation presented GRB-52-10 proposing a clarification to the test procedure for measuring the tyre rolling resistance. The expert from ISO informed GRB that this issue was still under discussion within a working group of his organization. GRB agreed to resume consideration of this subject at its next session, if necessary.
19. The expert from ETRTO proposed a correction to the formula for the measurement reproducibility of rolling resistance GRB-52-05. GRB noted a number of comments and agreed to review the proposal at its next session in February 2011, on the basis of an updated official document to be submitted by the expert from ETRTO.
20. GRB noted that Revision 2 of Regulation No. 117 (including the 02 series of amendments) had been adopted by WP.29 at its June 2010 session, on the basis of document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2010/63. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2010/8 proposing a number of corrections to Revision 2.
21. Following the discussion, GRB adopted the amendments proposed on pages 2 and 3 of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2010/8, as amended below, and requested the secretariat to submit them to WP.29 and AC.1, as Corrigendum 1 to 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117, for consideration at their November 2010 sessions (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2010/146). Annex 7, footnote 1/ of paragraphs 2. and 3.1.1., amend “Refer to the appendix …” to read “See appendix …”.
22. Upon the recommendation of WP.29 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1085, para. 50) at its June 2010 session, GRB considered an updated version of Annexes 8 and 9 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2010/8) for labelling purposes of tyres regarding rolling resistance as an outcome of the informal group on Special Tyre Definitions (STD). GRB noted GRB-52-06 and a number of comments, but could not find an agreement on both annexes. Following the discussion, it was agreed to reproduce the additional provisions on rolling resistance complementing the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117 as Annex III to this report (see the Documentation tab to download the full report).

105. The representative of the Russian Federation introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2010/83 proposing a global marking in the gtrs with a similar structure and requirements as those of the UNECE Regulations.
The representative of OICA, also on behalf of IMMA and GTB, introduced WP.29-150-20 and WP.29-151-08 proposing the harmonization of only technical markings. He underlined that a global certification mark would not be usable due to the inherent nature of the 1998 Agreement, which among others does not address the certification process and which cannot ensure that all global technical regulations are implemented in the same way in all the Contracting Parties. He suggested that, in order to overcome these difficulties, a possible solution could be that individual products would carry, instead of a certification mark, a unique identification code, through which all certification data could then be obtained in a global database of certified products, linked to the DETA database.
The representative of CLEPA stated that his organization would oppose to any limitation or regulatory restriction on product marking affecting trademark or manufacturer brands, etc.
The secretariat was requested to distribute WP.29-151-08 with an official symbol for consideration at the November 2010 session.
106. The representative of ETRTO stated that his organization did not need harmonization of technical markings. He proposed a possible system for a global administrative marking in the draft gtr on tyres (WP.29-151-03).
The representative of the United States of America underlined that marking should be clear enough for the customs services. He added that, according to the law of his country, the manufacturer putting the mark on the product would be considered responsible for the safety performance of the product over its entire useful life.
107. AC.3 agreed to resume discussion of this subject at its next session for a final decision. The Chair invited all delegates to reflect on a possible optional marking in gtrs.

12. The expert from the Russian Federation introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11, aimed at improving the test provisions for measuring the rolling resistance of tyres. The proposal received several comments (GRB-54-02, GRB-54-08 and GRB-54-10 amongst others). The Chair of GRB introduced GRB-54-12-Rev.1 proposing to amend ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11. He clarified that the proposal did not affect the existing methods but result in a further option to the deceleration method. GRB adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11 as reproduced by Annex III to this report. However, some GRB experts suggested further technical assessment of the proposed alternative method to the next GRB sessions. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117.
13. GRB noted also the work progress of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF) on matters of common interest with GRB (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, GRRF-69-23, GRRF-71-29 and GRRF-71-31). Particularly, GRB endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, inserting a new definition of C3 class tyres adopted by GRRF at its September session.

33. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 improving the current wet grip test method. The expert from ETRTO proposed GRRF-69-23 improving the wording of the EC proposal. Furthermore, the expert from ETRTO presented in GRRF-71-10 scientific data supporting ECE/TRAN/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12. The expert from Germany questioned the use of references to private standards, such as standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which are not publicly available. The GRRF Chair offered to seek guidance from WP.29 on this horizontal issue. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 as amended in Annex IV and agreed to send it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as part of draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments of Regulation No. 117, subject to a final review by GRRF at its February 2012 session (see also para. 35).
34. GRRF followed with interest the presentation (GRRF-71-06) made by the expert on behalf of ISO on a new test method for wet grip for buses and truck developed by ISO. Further information can be provided by Messrs. G. Dimitri (georges.dimitri@fr.michelin.com) or A. Dryden (dryden@iso.org).
35. The expert from ETRTO presented ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, GRRF-71-04 and GRRF-71-12 introducing a new method for defining C3 snow tyres. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30 as amended by Annex IV, and agreed to send it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as part of draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments of Regulation No. 117 (see also para. 33), subject to a final review by GRRF at its February 2012 session, as well as the review of the proposal by the Working Party on Noise (GRB).
36. Due to lack of time, GRRF agreed to consider, at its next session, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29 and GRRF-71-11 on an alternative to define C2 snow tyres. Following the adoption of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, GRRF agreed to remove from the agenda GRRF-71-09 combining ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30.
37. GRRF agreed to consider GRRF-71-29 with an official symbol at its next session.
38. The secretariat was requested to inform GRB about the outcome of the GRRF discussion on Regulation No. 117.

The proposal received several comments (GRB-54-02, GRB-54-08 and GRB-54-10 amongst others). The Chair of GRB introduced GRB-54-12-Rev.1 proposing to amend ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11. He clarified that the proposal did not affect the existing methods but result in a further option to the deceleration method. GRB adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11 as reproduced by Annex III to this report. However, some GRB experts suggested further technical assessment of the proposed alternative method to the next GRB sessions. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117.
13. GRB noted also the work progress of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF) on matters of common interest with GRB (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, GRRF-69-23, GRRF-71-29 and GRRF-71-31). Particularly, GRB endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, inserting a new definition of C3 class tyres adopted by GRRF at its September session.

31. GRRF reviewed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/2 clarifying in Regulation No. 117 the current wet grip testing method and adding specific performance requirements for C3 snow tyres. GRRF agreed to go forward with the proposed agenda of the March 2012 session of WP.29, but to include some minor editorial corrections transmitted by the expert from ETRTO to the secretariat.
32. The expert from ETRTO recalled the purpose of GRRF-71-11 justifying the insertion of provisions for snow tyres of class C2 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29). GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29 and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as part (para. 25 above) of draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117, subject to a final review by GRB and GRRF at their next sessions in September 2012.
33. The expert from France introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/5 proposing to amend the definition of the measuring rim for C1, C2 and C3 tyres. Following the discussion, the expert from France presented a revised proposal (GRRF-72-24) taking into account the comments received. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/5 as reproduced in Annex VII and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as a separate document for draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of Amendments to Regulation No. 117, also subject to a final review by GRB and GRRF at their next sessions in September 2012.
34. The expert from ETRTO proposed to clarify the title of Regulation No. 117 and its Annex 1 (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/10). GRRF adopted the proposal and it was agreed to have a final review by GRB and GRRF at their next sessions in September 2012. The secretariat was requested to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions, as part (paras. 25 and 32 above) of draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117.

33. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 improving the current wet grip test method. The expert from ETRTO proposed GRRF-69-23 improving the wording of the EC proposal. Furthermore, the expert from ETRTO presented in GRRF-71-10 scientific data supporting ECE/TRAN/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12. The expert from Germany questioned the use of references to private standards, such as standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which are not publicly available. The GRRF Chair offered to seek guidance from WP.29 on this horizontal issue. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 as amended in Annex IV and agreed to send it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as part of draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments of Regulation No. 117, subject to a final review by GRRF at its February 2012 session (see also para. 35).

33. The expert from EC introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 improving the current wet grip test method. The expert from ETRTO proposed GRRF-69-23 improving the wording of the EC proposal. Furthermore, the expert from ETRTO presented in GRRF-71-10 scientific data supporting ECE/TRAN/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12. The expert from Germany questioned the use of references to private standards, such as standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM), which are not publicly available. The GRRF Chair offered to seek guidance from WP.29 on this horizontal issue. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12 as amended in Annex IV and agreed to send it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as part of draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments of Regulation No. 117, subject to a final review by GRRF at its February 2012 session (see also para. 35).

30. The expert from ETRTO recalled ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/13 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/14, harmonizing the definitions used in Regulations Nos. 30 and 54 with those of the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117. The expert from Germany underlined that some proposed definitions diverged with those used within the European Union. The expert from France proposed in GRRF-71-31 to further develop the definition of snow tyre and to align the snow tyre markings requirements in Regulations Nos. 30, 54 and 117. GRRF agreed to continue consideration of that matter at its February 2012 session on the basis of a proposal prepared by France in collaboration with experts from Germany, the European Commission, OICA, ETRTO and all the interested experts (Focal point: Mr. Lescail from France: lescail@utac.com).

12. The expert from the Russian Federation introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11, aimed at improving the test provisions for measuring the rolling resistance of tyres. The proposal received several comments (GRB-54-02, GRB-54-08 and GRB-54-10 amongst others). The Chair of GRB introduced GRB-54-12-Rev.1 proposing to amend ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11. He clarified that the proposal did not affect the existing methods but result in a further option to the deceleration method. GRB adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2011/11 as reproduced by Annex III to this report. However, some GRB experts suggested further technical assessment of the proposed alternative method to the next GRB sessions. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their March 2012 sessions, as draft Supplement 1 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117.
13. GRB noted also the work progress of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF) on matters of common interest with GRB (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/12, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/29, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, GRRF-69-23, GRRF-71-29 and GRRF-71-31). Particularly, GRB endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2011/30, inserting a new definition of C3 class tyres adopted by GRRF at its September session.

17. Referring to the report of the Working Party on Brakes and Running Gear (GRRF) (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/72, paras. 25 and 32-34), GRB considered ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2011/55, proposing to add specific performance requirements for C2 snow tyres and amending the definition of the measuring rim for C1, C2 and C3 tyres. GRB endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/55 without amendment, scheduled to be considered by WP.29 and AC.1 at their November 2012 sessions. Concerning ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54, GRB considered GRB-56-15 tabled by the expert from Germany, proposing to introduce the inscription “M+S” or “M.S” or “M&S” only in combination with the “Alpine” symbol on a mandatory basis, if the tyre be classified as a “snow tyre for use in severe snow conditions”. Accordingly, GRB endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54, as amended by Annex III to this report and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their November 2012 sessions as draft Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments, subject to a final review by GRRF at its September 2012 session.
18. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/10 aligning the text of Annex 6 of the UN Regulation to ISO Standard 28580. GRB adopted the proposal not amended and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1, for consideration at their March 2013 session as draft Supplement 3 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117, also subject to a final review by GRRF at its September 2012 session (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/18).
19. The expert from ETRTO proposed to amend the snow test method for C3 tyres (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/11). However, GRB argued that some of the proposed amendments could conflict with the recommended introduction of blocking differential on driven axle as increasing repeatability in the test. GRB agreed to resume consideration of the proposal at its next session on the basis of an official document submitted to the March 2013 sessions of WP.29 and AC.1, incorporating possible changes (see ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/19) agreed by GRRF at its September 2012 session.
20. The expert from the Netherlands introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/15 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/18 updating the test track provisions to ISO 10844:2011. The expert from ETRTO introduced similar amendments (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/9) but without transitional provisions. GRB agreed that the introduction of new provisions for the test track should refer to a new series of amendments of the UN Regulation. Following the suggestion of the Chair and Vice-Chair, GRB considered GRB-56-20 (superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/15, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/18 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/9) drafted in accordance with ECE/TRANS/WP.29/1044/Rev.1 “Guidelines on the scope, administrative provisions and alternative requirements in Regulations annexed to the 1958 Agreement”. GRB requested the secretariat to distribute GRB-56-20 with an official symbol at its February 2013 session and agreed to refer to it as a basis to continue discussion on this subject.
21. Finally, GRB considered GRB-56-02 tabled by the expert from the Russian Federation aimed at providing detailed elaboration of the concept of tyre deceleration (dω/dt) in the test technology. The secretariat was requested to distribute it with an official symbol at its February 2013 session, pending the clarification of the reference to the “deceleration calculator” mentioned in the proposal.

26. The Chair recalled the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 harmonizing the definitions of “snow tyres” and “snow tyres for use in severe snow conditions” in UN Regulations Nos. 30, 54 and 117, for further consideration by GRB. The Chair of GRB presented GRRF-73-05, a proposal generated by GRB during its session in September 2012 which slightly modifies the GRRF proposal. GRB preferred to remove the marking M+S from UN Regulation No. 117. Only “snow tyres for severe condition” with the “Alpine Marking” are entitled to the bonus on limit values set in the Regulation (e.g. for “rolling noise”). GRRF endorsed the proposal by GRB as reproduced in GRRF-73-05-Rev.1 and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions together with ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 as Supplement 02 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117 (see WP.29-158-09).
27. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/17 amending UN Regulation No. 117, introducing the possibility to use a test track according to the new ISO standard 10844:2011. The expert from ETRTO preferred to insert transitional provisions into the proposed amendments (GRRF-73-26).

26. The Chair recalled the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 harmonizing the definitions of “snow tyres” and “snow tyres for use in severe snow conditions” in UN Regulations Nos. 30, 54 and 117, for further consideration by GRB. The Chair of GRB presented GRRF-73-05, a proposal generated by GRB during its session in September 2012 which slightly modifies the GRRF proposal. GRB preferred to remove the marking M+S from UN Regulation No. 117. Only “snow tyres for severe condition” with the “Alpine Marking” are entitled to the bonus on limit values set in the Regulation (e.g. for “rolling noise”). GRRF endorsed the proposal by GRB as reproduced in GRRF-73-05-Rev.1 and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions together with ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 as Supplement 02 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117 (see WP.29-158-09).

10. The EC expert informed GRB on the work progress of the European Union (EU) institutions on the EC proposal on vehicle noise. He added that at this stage no political agreement on new limits had been reached at the EU level.
11. The expert from China introduced GRB-56-07, proposing a different scheme to identify vehicle categories. He also added that his proposal would offer an option to cover needs of a broader range of countries. The experts from Japan and OICA endorsed the Power to Mass Ratio index (PMR) as a tool to link noise emission and vehicle performance. The EC expert recalled that to overcome the different national political priorities/classifications, the discussion should be focused on the mutual recognition principle of the 1958 Agreement, i.e. the vehicle complying with the lowest noise level would be accepted everywhere. He recalled that this would not prevent Contracting Parties from having less stringent requirements in their national law for their internal markets. Finally GRB agreed to resume consideration of GRB-56-07 at its February 2013 session to provide study time for experts.
12. GRB considered GRB-56-01 and GRB-56-05 supplementing ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/7 tabled by the expert from Japan. He explained that the proposal was based on GRB-55-01, including limit values with some modification of the threshold of subcategories, as a basis for a common position with the proposal tabled by the expert from Germany (GRB-54-03). Moreover, he made a presentation (GRB-56-21) concerning rationales for the proposed Stage 3 of limit values. The EC expert stated that the review of vehicle classification should not only consider the proposals tabled by the experts from Germany and Japan, but also the present vehicle classification in UN Regulation No. 51 and in the EC proposal and verify the rationales for the changes proposed by the experts from Germany and Japan.
GRB recalled that the EC proposal was available at: http://ec.europa.eu/enterprise/sectors/automotive/documents/proposals/index_en.htm#h2-1
13. Upon the suggestion of the Chair, GRB agreed to verify data and provide a basis for analysis for a power reference value of 160 kW in vehicle category M3 and for the reference value of 140 kW in vehicle category N2. Finally, GRB agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its February 2013 session on the basis of the above test data, if available, and on those existing provided by the experts from China, Japan and EC.

26. The Chair recalled the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 harmonizing the definitions of “snow tyres” and “snow tyres for use in severe snow conditions” in UN Regulations Nos. 30, 54 and 117, for further consideration by GRB. The Chair of GRB presented GRRF-73-05, a proposal generated by GRB during its session in September 2012 which slightly modifies the GRRF proposal. GRB preferred to remove the marking M+S from UN Regulation No. 117. Only “snow tyres for severe condition” with the “Alpine Marking” are entitled to the bonus on limit values set in the Regulation (e.g. for “rolling noise”). GRRF endorsed the proposal by GRB as reproduced in GRRF-73-05-Rev.1 and agreed to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2012 sessions together with ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2012/54 as Supplement 02 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117 (see WP.29-158-09).
27. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/17 amending UN Regulation No. 117, introducing the possibility to use a test track according to the new ISO standard 10844:2011. The expert from ETRTO preferred to insert transitional provisions into the proposed amendments (GRRF-73-26). GRRF endorsed the amendments proposed by GRB (GRRF-73-17) and confirmed there was no conflict with on-going amendments under consideration at GRRF.
28. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/18 correcting the provisions of the temperature compensation in Regulation No. 117. GRRF noted that this proposal had been simultaneously transmitted to GRB who had made recommendations for submission to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2013 sessions as Supplement 03 to the 02 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117.
29. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2012/19 amending the testing procedure for snow tyres of the category C3. GRRF noted some comments. GRRF agreed to consider a revised proposal at its next session
30. The expert of France presented a joint proposal of France / EC (GRRF-73-08) on wet grip testing provisions for Tyres of category C2 and C3. The expert from ETRTO introduced GRRF-73-18 and GRRF-73-21 in response to GRRF-73-08 with a proposal for limit values as well as transitional provisions. GRRF agreed to resume discussion on these issues on the basis of revised proposals tabled by ETRTO at its next session.

Feb 2013
16. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2013/5, drafted in cooperation with the experts from Poland and the United Kingdom, proposing to update the test track requirements to ISO 10844:2011 as a supplement to the UN Regulation rather than a new series of amendments. He stated that the new test track with tighter tolerances would maintain the same nominal noise behaviour and that its introduction as a new series of amendments was not justified (GRB-57-02). The experts from France endorsed the proposal and stated that technical variations introduced by the new track would not justify a new series of amendments. The experts from Italy and Japan also endorsed ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2013/5.
17. GRB finally adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2013/5 (superseding ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2013/2, ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/15 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRB/2012/18) as reproduced in Annex II to this report. The secretariat was requested to submit the proposal to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2013 sessions as draft Supplement 4 to the 07 series of amendments to UN Regulation No. 117. Moreover, GRB agreed that extensions of type approvals, granted by using the test track in accordance to ISO 10844:1994, may be carried out with the test track built in accordance with ISO 10844:2011, taking into account that this last would not negatively affect type approval noise test results.

26. The expert from ETRTO introduced GRRF-74-03, proposing minor amendments to Regulation No. 106. GRRF agreed to reconsider an amended proposal specifically to ensure that “CFO” and “CHO” do not become mandatory markings contrary to previous GRRF intention. GRRF agreed to reconsider this proposal with minor amendments and requested the secretariat to distribute it as an official document at the September 2013 session of GRRF.
27. The expert from EC introduced GRRF-74-27 and some questionnaires (GRRF-74-28, GRRF-74-29 and GRRF-74-30), informing GRRF about activities in the European Union on Tyre Pressure Monitoring Systems (TPMS) for trucks and coaches. GRRF welcomed the initiative by the EC and their efforts in sharing and transparency at this early stage. The expert from OICA proposed to provide the information available, to directly contact the consultants in these activities and to clarify the timeline for collecting the information.

Informal Working Group on Tyre Pressure Monitoring | Session 1 | 28-29
Nov 2007
The following documents were presented and explained during the meeting. Only the most important comments are reported below.
Principles of ECE-Regulation (Japan)
The principles of this document were explained by Mr. Ishihara. They seem to be acceptable to the group.
Public consultation on outline proposals for a Regulation of the European Parliament and the Council on Advanced Safety Features and Tyres (CLEPA). The document was distributed without detailed discussion.
Time Based Warning (TBW) – For constant Tyre Pressure and CO2 reduction (BMW). Mr. Hein (BMW) introduced this proposal as a short term solution without jeopardizing middle or long term solutions.
UNECE R64: RFT & RFWS Tyre Industry Position (ETRTO) Low pressure warning of run-flat-tyres is of great concern for the tyre industry with regard to product liability (2001/95/EC). Warning thresholds need deliberate discussion.
Notes for UNECE Informal GRRF Ad-Hoc TPMS WG Meeting in Bonn on Nov. 28&29, 2007 (CLEPA). Experts from Schrader Electronics and Siemens VDO presented a first draft for a cost/benefit-analysis of TPMS. This draft is based on data from USA.
Under-inflation measurements, types, standards & rules (ISO) This document shows that depending on the TPMS technical principles, under-inflation can be detected more or less easily.
Informal document No.GRRF-62-17
The presentation which was presented during the 62nd GRRF session was shown again in order to update all delegates.
UNECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF – Setting up an informal group on TPMS /Terms of Reference OICA
OICA had drafted terms of reference which were discussed in detail. The group agreed on some amendments to make the text clearer and the operation principles more practicable. The amended version (Terms of reference 1.0, Status 29.11.2007) is available as document TPM-01-09. It was added that international standardisation activities shall be taken into consideration. Several questions were raised which will be matters for discussion at the next meetings. The group confirmed that in principle TPMS – requirements should be defined for all categories of vehicles but it must be sorted out if this can be done in one stage or in several stages. The situation for heavy trucks and trailers is certainly quite different from that for passenger cars.
Some experts felt that this group should develop a more.sophisticated solution from the beginning. The German government, however, is convinced that TBW is a simple solution which could be realized by the vehicle manufacturers without great problems and thus improve the situation on the road very quickly, while giving this group the opportunity to develop a more sophisticated and well balanced cost-effective solution without time pressure. The German government will therefore prepare an informal document for the next GRRF meeting to introduce TBW as a short term solution.

44. The expert from Germany reported on the progress made by the informal group on tyre pressure monitoring (TPM) during its meetings held in Bonn on 13-14 October 2008 and on 12 December 2008. He presented their draft proposal for a new regulation for TPMS (ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2009/10 and Corr.1) with a number of unresolved issues in square brackets.
45. The expert from OICA introduced GRRF-65-15, GRRF-65-30, GRRF-65-31 and GRRF-65-35 proposing some improvements in the text as well as the technical background for a wider range of under-inflation of the tyres. The expert from the United Kingdom preferred to have a tighter range for the detection of under-inflation, without any tolerance for the accuracy (GRRF-65-36). The expert from ETRTO presented GRRF-65-21 and GRRF-65-22 also supporting a tighter range for the detection of under-inflation for safety reasons.
46. Following a lengthy discussion, the Chairman proposed a compromised text based upon ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2009/10 as reproduced in GRRF-65-40. This text includes, for the diffusion test, a pressure threshold of 20 per cent with no tolerance, but could not agree on the cumulative time necessary to warn the driver [30/60] minutes and on the allowance for the inaccuracies of the measuring equipment [5] kPa. These values would be kept in square brackets and should be considered by WP.29 during its forthcoming sessions. The Chairman announced his intention to inform WP.29 of the remaining open issues and to seek, in this respect, the advice of WP.29 at the forthcoming March 2009 session. The expert from OICA renewed his request about the crucial need to improve the accuracy of pressure gauges at service stations. The secretariat was requested to inform the European Garage Equipment Association (EGEA) of this need.
47. Concerning the time frame, the EC expert recalled the group that TPMS requirements would be made mandatory in the European Union by 2012. Therefore, GRRF agreed (with the exception of the expert from Germany) to adopt the TPMS requirements as an amendment to Regulation No. 64, instead of a new draft Regulation. The expert from the EC was requested to produce a revised document to include the agreed TPMS requirements into Regulation No. 64. GRRF requested the secretariat to submit the adopted proposal to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2009 sessions, as draft new series of amendments to Regulation No. 64, subject to a final review by GRRF at its September 2009 session.
48. Concluding the discussion, the Chairman thanked the experts from Germany for developing their proposal and for managing the competing approaches within the informal group.

GRRF requested the secretariat to submit the adopted proposal to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their November 2009 sessions, as draft new series of amendments to Regulation No. 64, subject to a final review by GRRF at its September 2009 session.
48. Concluding the discussion, the Chairman thanked the experts from Germany for developing their proposal and for managing the competing approaches within the informal group.

26. The expert from ETRTO presented GRRF-75-02, justifying the wet grip limit values for C3 tyres specified in ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/66. Following a tour de table, the Chair noted that half the experts were in favour of amending the proposed limits for normal and traction tyres whilst retaining the proposed limits for snow and special use tyres, while the other half were in favour of maintaining those proposed in ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/66. The GRRF Vice-Chair volunteered to lead a discussion with interested experts on a proposal for GRRF at its next session. GRRF preferred to postpone the vote by WP.29 and AC.1 on ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/66 until their June 2014 sessions.

Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 117
Document Title: Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 117
|
Document Reference Number: GRB-59-03
|
Description: Regulation 117, Annex 6 specifies several time duration values while Annex 6, Appendix 1 gives only one control accuracy value for time in its paragraph 4 (d): plus or minus 0.02 second. This means that this accuracy value applies to all the time durations specified in Regulation 117, Annex 6 and quoted above. This is not realistic for durations of more than one minute and not well fitted to the need of data acquisition for deceleration method. Therefore, Russia and ETRTO propose to introduce two accuracy sets of values in paragraphs 4 and 5 of Regulation 117, Annex 6, Appendix 1: - a control accuracy of +/- 0.2 % s and a corresponding instrumentation accuracy of +/- 0.1 % s for the time increments specified in Annex 6 paragraph 3.5.a for the data acquisition in the deceleration method, both in ∆ω/∆t or dω/dt form, and
- a control accuracy of +/- 5% and an instrumentation accuracy of maximum +/-10 sec for the other time durations specified in Annex 6.

20. The expert from ERTRO introduced GRB-59-03 containing a revised proposal for new time measurement accuracy for instrumentation involved in the rolling resistance method, with the aim to correct inconsistencies in Annex 6 to the UN Regulation. The proposal text was also supported by the experts from the Russian Federation. The expert from Japan raised a study reservation to verify the consequences of the change of accuracy. The expert of the European Commission raised similar concerns and stated that he would need first to discuss this matter with ERTRO on a bilateral basis. GRB agreed to resume consideration on this subject at its September 2014 session and requested the secretariat to distribute GRB-59-03 with an official symbol

35. At Chair’s invitation, GRB had a brief exchange of views on issues which should be included in the future work of GRB. The expert from ISO pointed out that, to update the test methods set out in UN Regulations Nos. 41 and 51, the following ISO activities may be relevant: revisiting ISO 362-1:2007, development of part III of this standard with a specification how to perform tests in indoor facilities and updating the requirements on the noise test track from ISO 10844:1994 to ISO 10844:2011. The expert from France mentioned UN Regulation No. 51, ASEP, QRTV, ongoing technological improvements, indoor approvals, addressing sirens (ambulances, etc.) in UN Regulation No. 28, noise pollution caused by loading and unloading of deliveries in cities. The expert from the Netherlands presented a graph (GRB-59-11) showing a general improvement in tyre noise data for C1 tyres in 2007-2013 and informed GRB about his intention to bring similar graphs for C2 and C3 tyres for the attention of GRB at its next session, with the aim to study if the current noise limits for tyres can be further reduced. With support from the experts from EC and OICA, he also suggested studying the correspondence between the labelling system on tyres and their actual performance. The expert from Switzerland was of the opinion that noise pollution, its benchmarking and new technologies emerging on the market should be looked at. The expert from ERTRO proposed to address the issue of road surfaces, as the third main contributor to noise pollution after vehicles and tyres. However, the Chair and the expert from EC pointed out that this issue is very complex and it goes beyond the competence of GRB and type approvals. The expert of EC proposed to revisit the noise emission of agricultural vehicles and update the underlying test methods which had been developed 40 years ago.

24. Recalling the purpose of ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/66, the Chair of GRRF stressed that WP.29 was expecting GRRF to conclude its deliberation about the wet grip limit values. The GRRF experts introduced their positions (GRRF-76-05, GRRF-76-07, GRRF-76-08, GRRF-76-11, GRRF-76-12, GRRF-76-26, GRRF-76-27, GRRF-76-28). The expert from the EC reported on the concerns expressed by the Directorate-General for Mobility and Transport of the European Commission (DG Move). GRRF confirmed the limit values proposed in para. 6.2.2. for Tyres of C2 category and agreed to amend the proposed limit values in para. 6.2.3. for Tyres of C3 category in ECE/TRANS/WP.29/2013/66. GRRF requested the secretariat to submit this amendment as reproduced in WP.29-162-05 to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their March 2014 session.
24bis. The expert from the Russian Federation presented GRB-59-02 proposing a tyre rolling resistance test results evaluation using a mathematical algorithm, to be added as an alternative to the existing one in the text of the Regulation. He also presented the results of a validation study of the proposed algorithm for tyres of the C1 category performed in France, in cooperation with the Russian Federation (GRB-59-07 and GRB-59-08). GRRF noted that this proposal may be submitted by GRB to WP.29 as a supplement to UN Regulation No. 117. GRRF recommended further steps for a better understanding of the proposed method’s sensitivity, suggesting: (i) extending the validation study for tyres of categories C2 and C3 and (ii) verifying the application of the proposed alternative in the conditions of the conformity of production. The GRRF Chair invited the experts to provide their comments on the proposal to the GRB secretariat with a copy to the expert from the Russian Federation.

30. The expert from ETRTO presented GRRF-78-13 proposing a corrigendum to Supplement 2 to 02 series of UN Regulation No. 117. The proposal noted that the Supplement to UN Regulation No. 117 introducing limits for C2 tyres in paragraph 6.4.1.1. had been adopted after the parallel proposal introducing those for C3 tyres. It highlighted an unintended consequence whereby the limits for C3 tyre had been deleted. Following the discussion, GRRF agreed that, while the consequence was an error, it was not appropriate to correct the regulation using corrigenda and agreed to consider the proposal as a Supplement.

GRRF recognized that the deletion was not the original intention of the Contracting Parties. The expert from the Russian Federation proposed (GRRF-79-19) to reinstate the Transitional Provisions as well as the reference to Annex 4 in paragraph 2.1. of Annex 3. Based on GRRF-79-19, the Secretariat and the expert from the Russian Federation proposed GRRF-79-33 with amendments aligning the original transitional provisions with the guidelines on Transitional Provisions.
30. GRRF adopted ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2015/9 as amended by Annex II to the session report, and requested the secretariat to submit it to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration at their June 2015 sessions as draft Supplement 8 to 02 series of Regulation No. 117.

27. The Chair of GRRF recalled the establishment of GTR No. 16 (Tyres) in the Global Registry. The expert from UK noted that the Plant Code format in the GTR was different from the one proposed in the draft regulation in consideration in the USA. The Chair recalled that GRRF previously agreed that updates to GTR No. 16 would be proposed after its establishment in the global registry by AC.3 to keep it in line with the latest regulatory developments. The expert from ETRTO presented an overview (GRRF 79 36) of the items contained in the GTR, in the Compendium for GTRs and those initially foreseen for Phase 2 of the development of the GTR on Tyres. At the request of GRRF, the expert from ETRTO agreed to prepare a draft amendment keeping in line the GTR with the latest regulatory developments and addressing the comment made by the expert from UK.

18. The expert from the Netherlands recalled the two studies presented at the previous session of GRB and introduced further arguments for tightening tyre noise limits in Regulation No. 117, together with the text of draft amendments (GRB-61-03 and Add.1). The expert from ETRTO questioned if the pool of tyres selected for the Dutch studies had indeed been a representative sample (GRB-61-18). He further pointed out that, for the time being, the tyre industry was busy meeting the requirements of 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117 which had recently come into force, in November 2012. According to him, until the completion of this process by 2018-2020, it would be premature to consider further reducing of tyre noise limits. The experts from China, Norway and Switzerland agreed that the proposal by the Netherlands needed further study. The experts from France and Germany pointed out various problems with labelling of tyres. GRB invited experts to provide their comments on the Dutch proposal and decided to revert to this issue at the next session on the basis of a new informal document containing the draft amendment proposals tabled by the expert from the Netherlands in GRB-61-03.

Description: Proposal to amend the tyre dimension requirements. The current rules for calculating the dimensional limits are not consistent among the UN Regulations for tyres and within the Regulations themselves. Hence they lead to uncertainty in the correct calculation. The current proposal aims at unifying the calculation rules to those used in ISO 4000-1 and all major tyre standards, e.g. ETRTO, Tyre & Rim Association (T&RA), Japan Automobile Tyre Manufacturers Association (JATMA).

12. The expert from the Netherlands presented a study (GRB-62-09 and Add.1) on noise emission from the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) tyres of a specific size which were found to be around 1 dB(A) lower than the one from replacement tyres of the same size. The expert, thus, proposed to further reduce the limit values for OEM tyres in the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117 (GRB-62-11 and Add.1).
13. The expert from Switzerland expressed his support for the general direction of the Dutch proposal. The experts from Germany and EC were of the view that, at this stage, it would be premature to tighten the tyre noise limits of Regulation No. 117. The expert from France called for a holistic approach to this issue. The experts from ETRTO and OICA expressed doubts about the representativeness of the tyre sample used in the Dutch study. The expert from ETRTO also delivered comments on the proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 117 (GRB-62-17). Finally, GRB invited all experts to further study the Dutch proposal and decided to revert to this issue at the next session.

As a temporary solution to assess the effectiveness of such proposal, the Annex 5 of Regulation No. 106 will be kept as it is with no further updates.

GRRF noted that Annex 5 was containing non-metric tyre sizes not in line with the general formulae contained in the Regulation; therefore, GRRF wondered whether the right approach would be to introduce the appropriate formulae in the Regulation instead of continuously updating Annex 5. The expert from ETRTO agreed to address this proposal and to submit, if suitable, revised proposals for consideration at the next session.

Description: Proposal to: - Align definitions and contents of paragraphs with the other tyre regulations (UN R30, R54, R117, etc.);
- Include a definition of “Manufacturer” extracted from the resolution “R.E.3”;
- Adopt a common definition and use of the terms “Manufacturer’s name”," Brand name", “Trademark”, “Trade description” and “Commercial name” and their links;
- Clarify which markings shall be moulded on both sidewalls of the tyre; and those which shall be moulded on one sidewall only;
- Add information in the certificate to clarify the relationship with the certified products;
- Align definitions with Regulation EU 167/2013 which defines vehicles in category S as “interchangeable towed equipment” and includes tread patterns for ‘implement traction tyres’ that consist of blocks rather than lugs or cleats;
- Eliminate redundant marking requirements with the requirement for “@kPa” markings effective from 1 September 2017;
- Clarify the inflation pressure to be used for measurements and tests and related tyre markings;
- Align the current rules for calculating the dimensional limits in accordance with ISO, all major tyre standards, and as proposed for UN R30, R54, and R75;

38. The expert from ETRTO presented a revised proposal ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/9 with provisions which were already supported at the last session. He introduced the revised transitional provisions related to new marking requirements. The experts from EC and UK proposed an alternative wording (GRRF-83-14). Both proposals received several comments. Therefore GRRF agreed to adopt the agreed provisions that would not be subject to transitional provisions and to remove the others, as reproduced in GRRF-83-23.
39. GRRF requested the secretariat to submit the adopted proposals ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/9 amended by Annex VI (based on GRRF-83-23 and GRRF-83-15) as well as ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2016/39 as draft Supplement 15 to Regulation No. 106 (Agricultural tyres) to WP.29 and AC.1 for consideration and vote at their June 2017 sessions.

Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 106
Document Title: Proposal for amendments to Regulation No. 106
|
Document Reference Number: GRRF/2017/5
|
Description: Regulation No. 106 contains standardized tyre sizes, which often need to be updated, following the technical progress. In order to accelerate the update process of the Regulation and limit the number of amendments, it is proposed to insert in a new Resolution the standardized sizes and to refer to this Resolution in Annex 5. As a temporary solution to assess the effectiveness of such proposal, the Annex 5 of Regulation No. 106 will be kept as it is with no further updates. After a trial period of approximately two years and upon confirmation of effectiveness, the complete Annex 5 of Regulation No. 106 would be transferred to this Resolution on Tyre Sizes.

36. The expert from ETRTO introduced ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/5 and ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRRF/2017/6 as amended by GRRF-83-11 and GRRF-83-12, proposing to introduce new tyres size usually listed in Annex 5 in a new Resolution, aimed at simplifying the update of this annex as well as reducing the number of amendments. GRRF noted that Annex 5 was containing non-metric tyre sizes not in line with the general formulae contained in the Regulation; therefore, GRRF wondered whether the right approach would be to introduce the appropriate formulae in the Regulation instead of continuously updating Annex 5. The expert from ETRTO agreed to address this proposal and to submit, if suitable, revised proposals for consideration at the next session.
