Coefficient of Friction (COF)

COF is the measurement of slipperiness on a surface. When testing the surface, a rubber-soled shoe with a weight is pulled across a surface while measuring the amount of force required to pull it across (Static Coefficient).

As adopted by Underwriters Laboratory (UL) and the American Society of Testing and Materials (ASTM):

.50 COF of above has been traditionally recognized as providing non-hazardous walkway surfaces. Source: ASTM D 2047-93.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), passed by Congress, Title III, notes:

For all businesses open to the public, ADA and ATBCB recommends flooring and walkways have a coefficient of friction level of .60 or above and .80 for ramps. The ADA also has established a special tax credit in order to help smaller employers make accommodations required by the ADA. Check with your accountant about IRS Form 8826 for applicability of ADA credits.
