The aim of this paper is to highlight the approach and application of the Stress-In-Motion (SIM) technology to assist in an improved definition of the actual tyre / pavement interaction of modern heavy vehicles and their loads on the current road infrastructure. The paper also provides an initial discussion on potential truck tyre parameters envisaged for Performance Based Standards (PBS) on flexible pavements.
