1、Designation: F 970 07Standard Test Method forStatic Load Limit1This standard is issued under the fixed designation F 970; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates

2、the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon (e) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This test method is intended for use in determining therecovery properties of resilient floor covering after long-termindentation test, 24 h under the load specified

3、in the detailspecification. The reported value, residual indentation, is thedepth of the depression remaining 24 h after removal of thespecified load.1.2 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this

4、standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

(6.35 mm)diameter foot of the thickness gauge (4.5) is drawn on the wearlayer at the center of the specimen, using the PMMA

Conditioning6.1 Condition the test unit at least 16 h at 73.4 6 3.6F(23.0 6 2.0C) and 50 6 5 % relative humidity and test in thesame environment (see Specification E 171).7. Procedures7.1 Measure the initial thickness o

Place as many specimen/indentor plate setsunder the indentation machine plunger as will fit.7.4 Square the stack of specimen/indentor plate sets andthen center the stack under the p

20、lunger of the indentationmachine.7.5 Check all clearances to be sure that the plunger andmajor load shaft with weight platform and weights will be freeto move down without restriction as the height of the stack ofspecimens diminishes during test. If necessary, place a metalspacer above or below the

21、plunger, and adjust the position ofthe collar on the plunger that supports a dial indicator (not usedfor static load test) to ensure adequate clearances during test.7.6 Apply the load according to the detail specification (75,125, 175, or 250 lb) by lowering gently, without impact.7.7 Remove the loa
