Summary of Practice4.1 This practice describes the procedure for assessing thesubstrate water absorption (often referred to as substrateporosity) of horizontal, substrate surfaces prior to the installa-tion of resilient floor coverings. The procedure

12、 involvesapplying a drop of water to the surface of properly preparedsubstrate, and then determining whether that drop of water isabsorbed within a given time period.5.

Smoking byindividuals exposed to asbestos fibers greatly increases the riskof serious bodily harm. Unless positively certain that theproduct is a non-asbestos-containing material, pres
