31、M), floortreatment materials (FTM) and walkway construction materials (WCM).1.3 The methods described involve the preparation and testing of representative floor surfaces todetermine their static coefficient of friction.1.4 The requirements may be applied to other floor surface materials if found ap
32、propriate.1.5 A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or differentfrom those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that involves a risk of fire, electric shock, orinjury to persons shall be evaluated using the appropriate additional compon

40、average static coefficient of friction for FTM, FCM, and WCM products shall be at least 0.50and individual static coefficients of friction shall be at least 0.45 when tested in accordance with therequirements of this section.4.2 Apparatus4.2.1 A James Machine, which tests the static friction of a su
41、rface, is employed for this test. The JamesMachine (see Figure 4.1) consists of a stand having a bridge on which is mounted a platform (t) andweights (a). The weights are supported by a rack and pinion member, hereafter referred to as the ram.The ram, platform, and weights total 80-mass pounds (36.3

44、 A strut (h), with forked ends, has an upper fork which is hinged to theends of the ram crossarm by means of ball-bearings. The lower fork (g) has short pins to engage the shoeholder (j). The shoe holder is a 3 inch (76.2 mm) square flat block of steel. The strut is 10 inches (254mm) long, from the
45、center of the upper hinges to the center of the shoe pins.4.2.3 The table is mounted so it can be moved horizontally in a straight line and at right angles to thebridge supporting the ram. It is actuated by a rack-and-pinion arrangement, controlled and operated bythe lower hand wheel (r). A vertical
46、 record sheet holder (d) is supported on an upright attached to the tableso as to move with the table. A pencil (f) attached to the ram bears against the record sheet (c) and servesto record the results of the static friction test. See Figure 4.2 for a typical test record sheet.This is generated tex
