If you are manufacturing or specifying flooring materials (e.g. coatings, tiles, resilient, concrete) what tests are you doing to quantify slip resistance?

ANSI A326.3 is a dynamic coefficient of friction test (DCOF). It's part of the ANSI A137.1 Standard Specifications for Ceramic Tile. If you're specifying and installing tile, make sure you have read A326.3.

ASTM E303 is a slip resistance test using a Pendulum device measuring Pendulum Threshold Value (PTV). While PTV is used often in Europe and Australia it isn't widely used in North America.

If you sell outside of North America having both A326.3 and E303 (or its European equivalent BS 16165) tests done provide you with a competitive advantage.

Use B101.3 (wet) or A326.3 (wet/dry) to measure DCOF of walkway surfaces. Record each measurement cycle as both a DCOF value and a graph that is saved to a data card as an Excel file. Share date easily for analysis and reports. To measure DCOF simply hold and press down on the two handles....
