Adhering to the American National Standard, WMG validates COF values on new surfaces, monitors slip resistance affected by maintenance and foot traffic, and assesses floor care product effectiveness. Post-testing, a detailed audit report, complying with ASTM F1694-14 and F2048-00 standards, is prepared. It includes a testing diagram, hard surface flooring conditions description, an executive summary of ANSI A326.3, all DCOF measurements with statistical analysis, and comprehensive tribometer reports featuring timestamps, date stamps, photos, and graphs for each DCOF sample.
