This report is the second in a series of reports to be published as a result of Department of Transportation sponsored truck tire research conducted by the National Bureau of Standards. In conjunction with the first report (OST-ONA-71-9) which contains details of the test design, test procedures, and all data acquired during the first period of testing, this report presents an inventory of peak A-weighted sound levels generated by typical rib, cross-bar and retread type truck tires. A test sample of nine tread designs, estimated to represent 70-80% (based on discussions with fleetowners) of the truck tire population on the road today, was investigated considering the following variables: wear, loading, speed, pavement surface, and tire location. Test vehicles included both single-chassis vehicles and tractor-trailers.
