An experimental setup comprising up of an indoor soil bin, a single wheel tester (SWT), a soil processing trolley, a drawbar pull loading device and an instrumentation unit was developed to perform traction tests in the soil bin to study the effect of soil, tyre and system parameters on the performance of tyres. The design of the single wheel tester was such that the dynamic weight reaction force is equal to that measured statically. It is a simple wheeled device, capable of testing tyres of up to 1.5 m in diameter, vertical force up to 19 kN, net pull up to 7.2 kN, torque up to 5.5 kN m, and speed up to 3.5 km/h.
