Proposal to revise document GRRF/2012/5 concerning C1, C2, and C3 rim measurement, including the proposal of an Appendix 4.

Presentation arguing for the establishment of minimum wet grip requirements for snow tires.

Presentation on the tire industry position concerning the implementation of new minimum requirements for wet grip on C2 and C3 tyres

Proposal submitted by ETRTO and prepared with the Netherlands, UK, and Poland to amend UNECE Regulation 117 in order to allow the use of test tracks complying to ISO 10844:2011, including transitional provisions.

Amendments to the proposal to amend the snow test method for C3 tyres in order to prescribe the wider of the possible speed ranges. Corrects wording to replace “blocking differential” with “differential lock” and mandatory use of differential lock in certain cases.

Relation between L&R slip ratio difference and ACC without TCS and Differential Lock and Comparison between Traction Control System “ON” and “OFF”.

Supporting presentation to the ETRTO proposal for minimum wet-grip performance thresholds (document GRRF-73-18) to ensure that improvements in tire rolling resistance (per EU CO2 goals) do not result in inadequate wet-grip performance.

Proposal to elaborate on the concept of tyre deceleration (dω/dt) in the test procedures. The Russian Federation has developed a “Deceleration Calculator” for use in the UN R117 procedures. Following work by an ad hoc group (including NAMI, UTAC, and ETRTO) formed to review and validate this tool, Russia has prepared this new proposal, modifying the version (document GRB/2013/10) submitted at the last GRB session. The changes primarily concern the explanation of the tool rather than the basic mathematical equations.

This proposal is an alternative to that represented in document GRRF/2015/9 and GRRF-79-19.

Document GRRF/2015/27 proposes to modify the marking requirements to replace PSI with kilopascals (“kPa”). The intent is to harmonize the pressure indication and avoid confusion between UN Regulation No. 54 and US FMVSS 119 or FMVSS 139. This proposal would allow for the use of kPa markings in place of PSI prior to the 1 January 2018 transition date.

Proposal to allow the use of test tracks constructed according to the new ISO 10844:2011.

Proposal to align the definition of the temperature correction coefficient “K” in UN Regulation No. 117: 02 series of amendments with ISO 28580. The issue is linked to tire categories: ISO refers only to load index while UN R117: 02 series refers to class C1, C2 and C3 tires.

European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO) proposal to amend the snow test method for C3 tyres in order to prescribe the wider of the possible speed ranges.

Text prepared by the European Commission (EC), France and European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO) in order to introduce wet grip provisions and testing procedures for tyres of categories C2 and C3.

Supplement 2 to the 02 series of amendments to Regulation No. 117 (Document WP.29/2012/54) as adopted at the June WP.29 session contained a typo where the snow temperature range for the snow grip test should be ‐4°C to ‐15°C, but the ‘minus’ sign was omitted before the first figure.

Text prepared by the European Tyre and Rim Technical Organisation (ETRTO) in order to correct inconsistencies in time measurement accuracy in Annex 6 of UN R 117.

Proposed changes from the ETRTO to clarify the communication form in Annex 1.

Proposal to restore transitional provisions incorrectly deleted by Supplement 6 to the 02 series of amendments.

Proposal to modify the marking requirements to replace PSI with kilopascals (“kPa”). The intent is to harmonize the pressure indication and avoid confusion between UN Regulation No. 54 and US FMVSS 119 or FMVSS 139.

Proposal to modify the marking requirements to replace PSI with kilopascals (“kPa”). The intent is to harmonize the pressure indication and avoid confusion between UN Regulation No. 54 and US FMVSS 119 or FMVSS 139. The proposal would also change the measurement units for drum speed from min^-1 to km.h^-1 in alignment with the requirements with other tyre regulations and align the wording in Annex 7, Appendix 1 with the text of the Regulation.

Proposal to correct the text where the word “tyres” was inadvertently omitted from Paragraph 2.1.

Proposal to correct a type in Annex 7- Appendix 2, Part 2, Paragraph 5 where the snow group index should read “1.00”, not “100” as appeared erroneously in the adopted text.

Proposal to update certain Standard Reference Test Tyre (SRTT) denominations, to remove the distinction between the two Class C3 tyres, to clarify the text and remove the reference to tyres “not marked with speed symbol”. This document will be handled by GRB during its 68th session and is referenced under GRVA due to the “conversion” of GRRF.

Proposal to introduce measures to reduce variability in noise measurement.
