Effect of studded tyres on various pavements and surfaces. Paper presented at the 52nd Annual Meeting of the Highway Research Board HRB, Washington, D.C., January 1973.

The purpose of this study was (1) to determine pavement wear caused by studded tyres; (2) to evaluate the resistance of different pavement materials and textures to wear caused by tyre studs; (3) to test pavement materials and overlays to reduce tyre stud damage; and (4) to study the effect of studded truck tyres on pavements. The findings indicate that some pavement materials are more resistant.
