TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Surface Rating: Mohs Scale: 7
SLIP: DCOF Wet .42-.52 ?

HOW IS SLIP MEASURED?

Coefficient of friction (COF) is the measurement of a tile's frictional resistance, closely related to traction and slipperiness. Both static and dynamic measurements can be taken. Static coefficient of friction (SCOF) is the frictional resistance one pushes against when starting in motion. Dynamic coefficient of friction (DCOF) is the frictional resistance one pushes against when already in motion. For SCOF and DCOF, a slip occurs when pushing off with more force than the surface can resist. That can happen when the angle of the force changes (e.g., pushing off harder while pressing down less) or when the floor surface becomes more slippery than anticipated.

While many tile products still show a "COF" value, many manufacturers have stopped reporting coefficient of friction per the ASTM C1028 method because the standard for tile floors has changed. There is now a >0.42 requirement, measured per the DCOF AcuTest℠, for level interior tiles that will be walked on when wet.

Slip Resistance may also be measured using a Pendulum Test.
Class 0: Dry indoor areas only.
Class 1: Dry indoor with slope less than 6 degrees.
Class 2: Wet indoor areas (e.g. bathrooms, kitchen, pool surrounds). Dry indoor areas with slopes or stair steps.
Class 3: Indoor areas where, as well as water, other lubricants are present that can reduce slip resistance (e.g. commercial kitchens, garages, industrial floors, etc.). External areas.

"Green Squared® involves one industry, one standard, and one mark and covers the gamut of products used in a tile installation. As the first multi-attribute sustainability standard developed for tiles and tile installation materials, Green Squared uses the transparency and consensus of the ANSI process combined with third party certification to evaluate, validate, and communicate products which have a positive impact on the environment and society.

Green Squared covers product characteristics, manufacturing, end of product life management, progressive corporate governance, and innovation in an effort to establish sustainability criteria for products throughout their full lifecycle.

Developed by the USGBC, LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) provides building owners and operators a concise framework for identifying and implementing practical and measurable green building design, construction, operations and maintenance solutions. LEED is an internationally recognized green building certification system, providing third-party verification that a building or community was designed and built using strategies aimed at improving performance across all the metrics that matter most: energy savings, water efficiency, CO2 emissions reduction, improved indoor environmental quality and stewardship of resources and sensitivity to their impacts.

USGBC LEED™ standards dictate that in order for a tile to be considered “green” it must meet one or more of the following requirements:
1. Produced from recycled material which may be either pre-consumer, post-consumer or post-industrial waste
2. Eco-friendly company-production/distribution process in that the manufacturer follows environmentally sound practices
3. Made within 500 miles of the jobsite which saves natural resources to transport the material and therefore reduces the carbon footprint left on our atmosphere

LEED Categories that may apply to products in this catalog:
MR 4.1 – Uses materials with at least 10% recycled content (1 point)
MR 4.2 – Uses materials with at least 20% recycled content (2 points)
MR 5.1 – Uses building materials or products that have been extracted, harvested or recovered, as well as manufactured, within 500 miles of the project site (1 point)"

A few things to know about the material:

  • Initial Color: Like any marble, Highland Gris can appear darker immediately after installation. This is due to moisture in the stone and setting materials. As it dries (which can take several days), the color is likely to lighten.
  • Natural Variation: Highland Gris can vary quite a bit from piece to piece—expect to see a mix of lighter and darker tiles, with soft to prominent gray veining throughout. Some tiles will have more movement, while others will be more uniform. This variety is part of its charm and what gives a natural stone installation so much depth and character—it’s never a flat, repetitive look, but a surface full of variety and beauty.
  • Installation Notes:
    • Dry-lay several pieces before installing to ensure a pleasing blend and distribution of coloration.
    • Use a high-quality white thinset to prevent any shadowing or discoloration.
    • Seal the marble after installation to protect against staining (once completely dry and no dark appearance is left).

When installed thoughtfully, marble delivers a timeless, elegant look. These notes aren’t meant to cause concern—simply to educate so you know what to expect and love the end result for years to come.
