Documenting Mixed-Road and On/Off-Road TBR Duty Cycles explains the operating evidence, measurements and asset details needed to evaluate this tyre topic consistently across a fleet or worksite.

Describe the Real Duty

For Documenting Mixed-Road and On/Off-Road TBR Duty Cycles, use one time window so measurements and operating events describe the same duty.

Documenting Mixed-Road and On/Off-Road TBR Duty Cycles becomes useful when the route or work cycle is broken into measurable segments. Distance, surface, stops, gradients, loading state, manoeuvres and unusual events should represent a normal operating period rather than a single convenient trip.

Documenting Mixed-Road and On/Off-Road TBR Duty Cycles — Field Data Sheet

Use one time base and one asset identity throughout the survey. Separate recurring duty from temporary construction, weather or production changes.

Surface

Road or ground segments, condition, gradients and turning areas.

Movement

Distance, travel time, stops, waiting and manoeuvring.

Duty boundary

Start, finish, repeat frequency and the operating period represented.

Build the Duty Profile

  1. Use machine time, distance and event records from the same period.
  2. Mark temporary conditions instead of averaging them silently.
  3. Summarise the dominant and most severe recurring segments.

Using the Duty Profile

The practical value of Documenting Mixed-Road and On/Off-Road TBR Duty Cycles is the ability to compare like periods without losing the reason behind an unusual value.
