Determination of slip resistance of pedestrian surfaces - Method of evaluation - Part 1: Reference method
oSIST prEN 15673-1:2007

This document describes a reference method incorporating three procedures for the determination in the laboratory of the slip resistance of floorings in the three most commonly encountered situations in which pedestrians walk (normal flooring, barefoot, and industrial situations).
It specifies a laboratory reference method based on the subject-based inclined ramp method against which other test methods, which are able to be used in both, laboratory and on site, are compared. The method of validation is set out in prEN 15673-2. If the required degree of correlation is given between one of those test methods and the reference method, that method will be put forward as prEN 15673-2 a acceptable slip test method.
The reference method is subdivided in three procedures:
- Procedure 1: Floorings where heel slip in wet conditions and the pedestrian is wearing shoes is the normal mode of pedestrian slip.
NOTE 1   This procedure is based on Four S rubber test shoes with water as the contaminant.
- Procedure 2: Floorings where heel slip in wet conditions when the pedestrian is barefoot is the normal mode of pedestrian slip.
NOTE 2   This procedure is based on barefoot testing and water as the contaminant.
- Procedure 3: Floorings where sole slip in contaminated conditions when the pedestrian is wearing profiled rubber soled shoes is the normal mode of pedestrian slip, for example construction, and industrial work areas.
NOTE 3   This procedure is based on profiled rubber test shoes with engine oil as the contaminant.
This Standard does not cover sports surfaces and road surfaces for vehicles (skid resistance).

Frequently Asked Questions

CEN/TC 339 is a Technical Committee within the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). It is named "Slip resistance of pedestrian surfaces - Methods of evaluation" and is responsible for: Standardization of a single test method for the evaluation of slip resistance applicable to all pedestrian surfaces, excluding road surfaces (skid resistance) and excluding sport surfaces. This committee has published 4 standards.

CEN/TC 339 develops CEN standards in the area of T19 - ROAD SAFETY. The scope of work includes: Standardization of a single test method for the evaluation of slip resistance applicable to all pedestrian surfaces, excluding road surfaces (skid resistance) and excluding sport surfaces. Currently, there are 4 published standards from this technical committee.

The European Committee for Standardization (CEN) is a public standards organization that brings together the national standardization bodies of 34 European countries. CEN provides a platform for developing European Standards (ENs) and other technical documents in relation to various products, materials, services, and processes, supporting the European Single Market.

A Technical Committee (TC) in CEN is a group of experts responsible for developing international standards in a specific technical area. TCs are composed of national member body delegates and work through consensus to create standards that meet global industry needs. Each TC may have subcommittees (SCs) and working groups (WGs) for specialized topics.
