520 _aThis Building Technology Special focuses on the need for improved slip resistance flooring to reduce the appalling accident rate from people slipping and the resulting number of compensation claims. The main problem is the lack of recognised and enforced methods for measuring anti-slip properties of floor finishes and no British Standard to set out slip resistance requirements. Reports on efforts to introduce standards and two methods of testing currently in general use which assess the anti-slip properties of flooring tiles . Looks at developments being made in synthetic resin flooring systems and concludes with a product review and case studies on various types of flooring.
