1.1This practice covers the determination of the acceptability of a concrete floor for the installation of resilient flooring.
1.2This practice includes suggestions for the construction of a concrete floor to ensure its acceptability for installation of resilient flooring.
1.3This practice does not cover the adequacy of the concrete floor to perform its structural requirements.
1.4This practice covers the necessary preparation of concrete floors prior to the installation of resilient flooring.
1.5This practice does not supersede in any manner the resilient flooring or adhesive manufacturer's written instructions. Consult the individual manufacturer for specific recommendations.
1.6Although carpet tiles, carpet, wood flooring, coatings, films, and paints are not specifically intended to be included in the category of resilient floor coverings, the procedures included in this practice may be useful for preparing concrete floors to receive such finishes.
1.7This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. See 4.1.1, 7.1.1, and 7.1.2 for specific warning statements.
1.8The values stated in inch-pound units are to be regarded as standard. The values given in parentheses are mathematical conversions to SI units that are provided for information only and are not considered standard.
1.9This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
