Abstract
This paper discusses both indoor and outdoor test procedures in obtaining tire friction values on ice and snow covered surfaces; the equipment and instrumentation needed, and forces which affect test results. Progress made through design and additives to tires, which have influences their frictional values, is also discussed.
