24、existingslabs with deleterious residues to achieve an appropriate statefor testing. Cleaning shall take place a minimum of 24 h beforetesting. WarningHydraulic cement used in concrete con-struction may contain trace amounts of free crystalline silica.Prolonged exposure to airborne free crystalline s

25、ilica may be ahealth hazard. Avoid actions that cause dust to become air-borne. Use local or general ventilation to control exposuresbelow applicable exposure limits.5.2 Moisture TestingAll concrete slabs shall be tested formoisture regardless of age or grade level. For the preferredmoisture testing

26、 method and limits, consult the written instruc-tions from the floor covering manufacturer, the adhesivemanufacturer, the patching/underlayment manufacturer, orcombination thereof. In the absence of manufacturers guide-lines, refer to Table 1.5.2.1 Consult the resilient flooring manufacturer, the ad

27、he-sive manufacturer, the underlayment manufacturers writteninstructions, or combination thereof, for their acceptable testmethods. If these instructions are in conflict, the most stringentrequirements shall apply.5.3 pH TestingConcrete floors shall be tested for pH priorto the installation of resil

28、ient flooring. Levels of pH shall notexceed the written recommendations of the resilient flooringmanufacturer or the adhesive manufacturer, or both.5.3.1 To test for pH at the surface of a concrete slab, usewide range pH paper, its associated pH chart, and distilled ordeionized water. Place several

29、drops of water on a cleansurface of concrete, forming a puddle approximately 1 in. (25mm) in diameter. Allow the puddle to set for 60 6 5 s, then dipthe pH paper into the water. Remove immediately, and com-pare to chart to determine pH reading. Other pH testingmethods such as pH pencils or pH meters

30、, or both, are availableand may be used to measure pH. Readings below 7.0 and inexcess of 10.0 have been known to affect resilient flooring oradhesives, or both. Refer to resilient flooring manufacturerswritten instructions for guidelines on acceptable testing meth-ods and acceptable pH levels. See

31、X1.4 for more informationabout pH levels in concrete slabs.6. Preparation of New Concrete Floors6.1 New concrete slabs shall be properly cured and driedbefore installation of resilient flooring. Drying time beforeslabs are ready for moisture testing will vary depending onatmospheric conditions and m

32、ix design. See X1.3 for moreinformation. Floors containing lightweight aggregate or excesswater, and those which are allowed to dry from only one side,such as concrete on metal deck construction, may need a muchlonger drying time and should not be covered with resilientflooring unless the moisture v

33、apor emission rate meets themanufacturers installation specifications.7. Preparation of Existing Concrete Floors7.1 The resilient flooring manufacturer shall be consultedregarding the necessity of removal of old resilient flooring,adhesive residue, paint, or other surface contaminants. If oldresilie

34、nt flooring, paint, or adhesive residue is to be removed,follow 7.1.1 and 7.1.2:7.1.1 WarningDo not sand, dry sweep, dry scrape, drill,saw, beadblast, or mechanically chip or pulverize existingresilient flooring, backing, lining felt, paint, asphaltic cutbackadhesives, or other adhesives. These prod

35、ucts may containasbestos fibers or crystalline silica. Avoid creating dust. Inha-lation of such dust is a cancer and respiratory tract hazard.Smoking by individuals exposed to asbestos fibers greatlyincreases the risk of serious bodily harm. Unless positivelycertain that the product is a nonasbestos

37、ng Institutes (RFCIs) recommendedwork practices for removal of existing resilient floor coveringsshould be consulted for a defined set of instructions addressedto the task of removing all resilient floor covering structures.7.1.2 WarningCertain paints may contain lead. Exposureto excessive amounts o

38、f lead dust presents a health hazard.Refer to applicable federal, state, and local laws and guidelinesfor hazard identification and abatement of lead-based paintpublished by the U.S. Department of Housing and UrbanDevelopment7regarding appropriate methods for identifyinglead-based paint and removing

39、 such paint, and any licensing,certification, and training requirements for persons performinglead abatement work.7.2 Adhesive RemoversThere are a number of commercialadhesive removers that will properly remove adhesive residuefrom a subfloor, however, there are concerns that these prod-ucts may adv

40、ersely effect the new adhesive and new floorcovering. The Resilient Floor Covering Institutes (RFCIs)recommended work practices for removal of existing resilientfloor coverings and the resilient flooring manufacturers writ-ten instructions should be consulted for a defined set ofinstructions which s

41、hould be followed if existing adhesivesmust be removed.8. Installation on Radiant Heated Floors8.1 Most resilient flooring can be installed on radiant heatedslabs providing the maximum temperature of the surface of theslab does not exceed 85F (29C) under any condition of use.Consult the resilient fl

CONCRETE COMPOSITION AND PRACTICESX1.1 GeneralT

43、his brief information on concrete compo-sition and practices is provided to help specifiers, resilientflooring installers, and resilient flooring manufacturers under-stand the properties of concrete. A concrete slab is not an inertsubstrate. It is a complex mixture of organic and inorganicsubstances

44、 whose properties and condition will affect theperformance of a floor covering placed on its surface. Surfaceflatness, strength, joints, alkalinity, permeability, and manyother concrete properties will have a significant effect on thelong-term appearance and performance of resilient flooring.X1.1.1

45、Concrete used for most floors is a mixture ofhydraulic cement, fine aggregate (sand), coarse aggregate(stone), water and admixtures. In addition to these batchingredients, chemical admixtures can be used to control thesetting time, rate of strength development, workability, airentrapment, and other

46、properties of concrete. For example,water-reducing admixtures can increase the slump of freshconcrete without adding additional water. Pozzolanic admix-tures such as fly ash or ground granulated blast furnace slag aresometimes present as a partial replacement for the cement.Specifications and test m

47、ethods for cements and related mate-rials are found in the Annual Book of ASTM Standards,Vol04.01.X1.1.2 Lightweight concrete, less than 115 lb/ft3(1841kg/m3), may have such low strength that it is unsuitable forcovering with resilient flooring unless 1 in. (25 mm) or more ofstandard weight concrete

48、, generally 140 lb/ft3(2241 kg/m3)ormore, is used as a topping.X1.2 Water-Cement RatioThe most important factor af-fecting most concrete properties is the water-cement ratio. Thisis the ratio of the mass of water to the mass of cement in astandard volume of concrete. For a given concrete mix design,

49、as the water-cement ratio is increased, most concrete propertiesare affected negatively. Of special interest to the floor coveringindustry, compressive and flexural strengths are decreased,permeability is increased, and drying times are lengthened.Moderate to moderately low water-cement ratios (0.40 to 0.45)can be used to produce floor slabs that can easily be placed,finished, and dried, and which will have acceptable permeabil-ity to moisture. Floor slabs with water-cement ratios above0.60 take an exceedingly long time to dry and cause adhesivesor floor cover
