Testing, Evaluation Methods and Results

CONCENTRATED LOAD TEST ON ASM FS100 PANEL WITHOUT STRINGERS

Objective:

To perform concentrated load tests per CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 to determine the maximum deflection and permanent set of ASM model FS100 bare panels under load, without stringers or corner-lock screws attached.

Reference:

Three (3) FS100 bare panels were removed from stock to be tested. Each panel was mounted on four steel blocks at each corner, configured to provide support identical to that provided by pedestal heads of an installed system.

Procedure:

The panels were tested according to Section 1 of CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 for determination of concentrated load capacity. The concentrated load was applied through a steel indentor 1” (25.4mm) square. Each panel was loaded at its center, and at the midpoint of one edge. Each panel was preloaded to the design load at each location. A pre-load of 50 lbf (222N) was then applied at each location and the instrumentation measuring deflection and load was set at zero. The top surface deflection and permanent set were measured at each applied load location. The loads were applied at each location and held for 1 minute and the deflection readings were taken at the end of that period. After the design load was reached, the applied load was relaxed to the pre-load level for 1 minute and permanent set was recorded. The load was applied through a hydraulic ram. The force was measured by means of an electronic load cell. Top surface deflection was measured using a dial indicator.

ROLLING LOAD TEST ON ASM FS100 PANEL

Objective:

To perform rolling load tests per CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 to determine the “rolling load capacity” of ASM model FS100 bare panel.

Reference:

Three (3) FS100 bare panels were removed from stock to be tested. Each panel was mounted on four supports with stringers attached configured to provide support identical to that provided by an installed system.

Procedure:

The panels were tested according to Section 3 of CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 for determination of rolling load capacity. Three specimens of each panel to be tested were mounted on an understructure support system identical to that used in an installed system. The panels were subjected to 10 passes on wheel A and 10,000 passes on wheel B of an imposed caster rolling load traversing the center along a fixed path at a speed of 100 FPM ± 10%, at a stroke distance of 48”.

The flatness of the center panel was measured start of the test, and at intervals of 500, 5,000, and 10,000 passes using a 32” long straight edge. The 32” long straight edge was placed along the diagonal in each direction. A measurement was taken at each straightedge location (2 locations) at maximum variation and recorded for reference. The center panel was measured at a point along the proposed caster path for local variation with a 6” long straightedge. The largest six (6) variations were recorded for reference.

Following completion of the rolling load tests, the overall flatness of the center panel was again measured with the 32” long straightedge and the 6” straightedge to determine the maximum amount of permanent deformation at each previous location and each measurement was recorded for reference.

UNIFORM LOAD TEST ON ASM FS100 PANEL WITHOUT STRINGERS

To perform uniform load tests per CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 and ICC-ES AC300 to determine the maximum deflection and permanent set of ASM model FS100 bare panels under a uniformly distributed load, without stringers or corner-lock screws attached.

Reference:

Three (3) FS100 bare panels were removed from stock to be tested. Each panel was mounted on four steel blocks at each corner configured to provide support identical to that provided by pedestal heads of an installed system.

Procedure:

The panels were tested according to Section 7 of CISCA Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors 2007 and ICC-ES AC300 for determination of uniform load capacity. The load was applied through an air bag as prescribed in ASTM E2322 Standard Method for Conducting Transverse and Concentrated Load Tests on Panels Used In Floor And Roof Construction. The panel was preloaded to the design load. The panel was then pre-loaded to 200 Ibf (0.89 kN) and the instrumentation measuring load and deflection were zeroed. The force was measured by means of an electronic load cell.

Deflection was measured at the bottom surface using two dial indicators, with one placed under the center of the panel and one placed under the midpoint of one edge. Total deflection was recorded as the average of the two indicators. The loads were applied for 1 minute and the deflection readings were taken at the end of that period. The applied load was relaxed to the reference zero for 1 minute and permanent set was recorded.

Identification: Pedestal Axial Load Test on B4201 Base Method of Test: CISCA 2007 Recommended Test Procedures For Access Floors, Section 5 ICC-ES AC300 Acceptance Criteria For Access Floors – June 2009

In accordance with CISCA Section 5, pedestal axial load tests were performed utilizing a Forney Universal Machine (S/N 81081) and the applied loads were measured with a Total Comp 50 kip load cell calibrated on 12/14/2009. The tests were performed on three steel pedestals of each height listed. The sample pedestals were identified as B4201/H100 and had a 7/8” square x 16 gauge tube welded to a 4” square x 1/8” base plate. The pedestal head had a ¾”-10 threaded rod and an adjusting nut. The sample pedestals were first adjusted to their appropriate FFH and tested with a vertical load applied through the center of the pedestal head. An initial load of 5,000 lbf was applied, held for one minute and released. The pedestal assembly was inspected for damage and workability of the adjusting nut. A second test load of 10,000 lbf was applied, held for one minute and then released for further inspection of any deformity and for workability. All pedestal samples remained functional after the second test load was released and none of the samples showed any evidence of deformity. A third test was performed determine the ultimate load of the pedestal samples by increasing the load until damage or deformity could be observed.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

DURING INSTALLATION

The ASM panels you have chosen to install are of quality construction. If these care and maintenance instructions are followed, the floor panels will retain their appearance for many years to come.

1. Before and during installation be sure the floor area is clean and kept free of dust, water, & abrasives. These panels are manufactured to close tolerances, and all of these substances can cause future problems.

2. Maintain temperature between 60 to 80 degrees F before, during and after installation, with a relative humidity of 40% to 60%. Allow materials to stabilize at recommended temperature for 24 hours before installation.

Avoid extreme changes in temperature and humidity. These are the recommended conditions to properly preserve the panels, and conform to requirements of computer manufacturers.

3. The general, contractor and/or owner shall provide a level concrete sub-floor that is clean, dry and free from any dust, dirt or release compound. If concrete has been sealed, a spot check should be made to determine whether the sealer should be scuffed and/or removed before applying the pedestal adhesive. Pedestals should be free of oily residue.

4. After installation, remind the general contractor and/or facilities manager that when equipment is being installed and/or moved, the panels must be protected from dynamic load damage by covering them with a minimum of 3/4” plywood. This will evenly distribute the weight and prevent marring and gouging of the covering.

5. The general contractor and/or owner shall protect the finished access floor from damage and misuse by providing and applying 1/8” tempered hardboard in traffic areas and with 20 pound Kraft paper sealed to prevent tearing in all other areas.

6. Prior to allowing other trades on the access floor, the general contractor and/or owner shall accept the floor system.

7. when replacing or removing panels after initial installations extreme care must be taken not to chip or damage the edging. The panels can be removed and replaced easily with the proper tools. Do not handle without using the special lifter. Do not drop or kick panels into position. FORCE MUST NOT BE USED WHEN

REPLACING PANELS.

8. Rest heavy equipment on pads 5" X 5” (wood/steel) to distribute point loading. Install additional pedestals as required under panels wherever heavy equipment is resting on the floor panels.

9. When installing cable, no more than 5 panels (approximately 10 feet) should be removed at one time to avoid misalignment of the floor when reinstalling the panels. This applies to all types of understructure.

10. Caution should be exercised by the installers when pulling cable so as not to loosen the adjusting nuts on the pedestals. This can happen when the cables rub against the nut and causing sufficient friction to turn and loosen the nut.

11. Never flood panels with water or a cleaning agent. This could cause damage to the panel and affect the electrical or communication wiring underneath. High-pressure laminate tile requires little maintenance and can be easily cleaned by dry mopping and periodically damp mopping with mild detergent when necessary. Use of strong cleaning agents, waxing, buffing, or refinishing is not needed. Under normal environmental conditions, do not clean the floor surface with steel wool, nylon pads, or abrasives of any kind, whether manually or with any type of power equipment.

If necessary, stubborn stains can be spot cleaned using a non-flammable organic cleaner. But if you do, take care that the cleaner does not get into cracks and get under the edge of the laminate (or other floor covering) where it could adversely affect the bond and cause delamination.

Do not wax or clean with a mop saturated with oils or chemicals. A film on the floor will affect its performance.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

AFTER INSTALLATION

PANELS WITH HIGH PRESSURE LAMINATE (HPL) TILE

An access floor covered with high-pressure laminate tile is an unusual floor surface with some requirements that are different from a conventional floor. It is designed to provide many years of service with a minimum of care and cleaning. HPL is virtually stain proof and scuff proof. It has a very high resistance to static build-up;

therefore it does not attract dust.

You can keep the HPL panels looking new and bright and ensure maximum life from your floor by following these simple instructions:

ALWAYS :

1. Always keep the floor clean by sweeping and dry mopping regularly.

2. Always damp-mop the floor with a mild household detergent or a simple solution of water with 5-10% ammonia added.

3. Always protect the floor from soil and chemicals being tracked in by placing "tack mats" at entrances.

4. Always rotate the floor panels periodically from high traffic areas to areas of low traffic. This will spread the wear evenly over the entire floor and provide a longer floor life.

5. Always use only a mild solvent on particularly bad spots.

NEVER :

1. Never wax, buff, polish or rinse the floor with water containing wax. HPL is intended to prevent wax from sticking and the wax will flake-off. Wax will also inhibit the static resistance of the HPL.

2. Never flood the surface of the floor with water. Large quantities of any liquid can attack the adhesive and cause delamination.

3. Never use steel wool, strong abrasives or scrapers to remove stains.

PANELS WITH CARPET TILE

An access floor covered with carpet tile is an unusual floor surface with requirements that are somewhat different from conventional carpeted floors. It has been designed to provide many years of satisfactory service with minimal care.

By establishing a comprehensive preventative maintenance program that is exercised regularly, and following the instructions as outlined below, you can insure maximum life and beauty of your new carpeted access floor for years to come.

• Try to rotate the floor periodically by switching panels from areas of heavy traffic to areas of very low traffic. This will spread the wear evenly over the entire floor surface.

Dirt is the greatest cause of excessive carpet wear. Foot traffic deposits soil into the carpet pile, and as the pile yarn flexes under the weight, the soil particles grind away at the fibers. In time, the fibers break down and the carpet begins to lose its resilience and density. If this soil is allowed to accumulate, the grinding action is accelerated and the carpet becomes threadbare and worn out.

• Use tack mats at entrances and keep adjacent areas clean.

• Use runner mats in areas of very high traffic.

• Use coasters under furniture legs to prevent indentations.

• Use desk chair pads wherever possible to prevent excessive wear caused by casters.

• Vacuum the floor regularly.

When vacuuming a carpeted panel, use care in the type of machine being used. Vacuuming level loop carpets with the wrong equipment can cause damage. Vacuum cleaners with mechanical agitators or beater bars and powered revolving brushes tend to pull fibers out of the carpet. This agitation can also cause the edges of the carpet to unravel from the backing.

• Exercise a routine maintenance program.

A routine carpet maintenance program should be started as soon as the carpet panels are installed.

This will prevent abrasive dirt from building up faster than it can be managed. The maintenance program should include regular vacuuming, spot cleaning as soon as possible, and periodic overall shampooing. A program of this type will maintain the attractive appearance and color, and prevent excessive wearing. It will also refresh the pile and eliminate the build up of dirty grit, which will permanently crush and mat the pile. The frequency of the cleaning operations will depend entirely upon the amount of traffic that the carpet receives

STAIN REMOVAL

Spot stains are the most difficult problem in carpet maintenance, but if immediate action is taken after a spill, the stain can be entirely removed from man-made fibers. If the stain is allowed to set for a long period of time, it may be extremely difficult, if not impossible, to remove.

Here’s a few helpful hints about spot removal :

1. Pick up the excess moisture from wet spills by blotting with a tissue, cloth or paper towels.

2. Identify the type of stain.

3. Select the proper stain removal agent.

4. Test the agent on an area of carpet in an out-of-the way place to make sure there is no fading of color.

5. Apply a small amount of agent to the stain and press with absorbent material to lift the dissolved stain.

6. Work from outside of the stain toward the center, to prevent spreading the stain.

7. Take your time, repeated applications may be necessary.

8. Dry the cleaned area with weighted absorbent material or use a fan.

DON'TS:

1. DON’T let the stain set or dry out.

2. DON’T guess at the nature of the stain, the wrong cleaning agent may only make it worse.

3. DON’T wet large areas at one time, be patient and work on small areas.

4. DON’T rub the stain, it will only spread the stain and distort the carpet pile.

5. DON’T allow foot traffic until the cleaned area is completely dry.

There are many excellent stain removal kits on the market with complete instructions, which will assist you in identifying the stain and selecting the proper agent for removal

SHAMPOOING THE CARPET

Saturating carpet with liquid (especially carpet with “jute” backing) may cause shrinkage and delamination.

Basically, there are the four methods used to shampoo commercial carpet and not all of them are recommended for use on raised access floors.

1. The DRY FOAM METHOD (which is the preferred method for “cut pile” carpet) is used with a machine that applies a fairly hot (150 degree), foamed detergent with a rotary brush and continuously vacuums up the dirty suds immediately behind the brush. The high temperature and alkalinity of the cleaning solution make this a very effective shampooing method. The carpet does not become over-wet and requires less drying time than the other methods. However, this also means that the cleaning action may not reach down to the base of the pile. This method works much better on cut-pile carpet than it does on level-loop carpet.

2. The STEAM EXTRACTION METHOD (which is the preferred method for “level-loop” carpet) is somewhat misleading, since the water temperature usually does not exceed 160 degrees, although a steam-like vapor may rise from the carpet. These machines normally have two tanks. One is for the cleaning solution and the other is for dirty water taken up from the carpet. The process is continuous, with one section of the machine feeding the cleaning solution into the pile, and another section vacuuming up the dirty water. These machines usually do not have a brushing action, and rotary shampooing may be required on severely soiled carpet. With the steam extraction method, care must be taken not to over-wet the carpet. Carpet will require several hours drying time. This method is NOT recommended for cut-pile carpet.

3. The DRY COMPOUND METHOD is not a true shampooing method. It is intended more for spot maintenance than for overall cleaning. It utilizes a dry compound of white clay or other organic material impregnated with solvents, detergents and brighteners. The compound is worked into the pile with a power brush and then separately vacuumed up after absorbing grease and oil. This method is very effective against oil soiling and has little wetting action on the carpet. Cleaned carpet may be put into use almost immediately. This method works much better on cut-pile carpet than it does on level-loop carpet.

4. The ROTARY BRUSH METHOD is a machine that dispenses warm detergent water from a tank mounted on the arms of the machine down through a revolving brush. The suds are worked deep into the pile of the carpet, and then drawn out by a separate wet-vacuum machine. This is an extremely effective shampooing method, but very time-consuming and afterwards, the carpet will require several hours drying time because it has become saturated with liquid.

NOTE : This method is NOT recommended for use on any access floors.

With all of the above methods, the carpet should first be brushed with a pile lifter, and then dry vacuum cleaned, before shampooing.

CLEANING CARPET IN COMPUTER ROOMS

The use of conventional vacuum cleaners in a computer room may produce hazards to machines and personnel. Any vacuum cleaning equipment used in the machine area should have a non-conductive hose and nozzle assembly. This safety precaution minimizes any possibility of static electricity discharge or electrical shock.

Only the DRY FOAM or DRY COMPOUND methods of shampooing should be used in computer rooms, since the Rotary Brush or Steam Extraction methods might saturate the carpet, and could cause seepage of water into the underfloor area, where it could damage machine and power connections.

Spot cleaning of large soils and stains is best accomplished by removing the carpeted floor panels for off-site cleaning, and placing temporary panels in their place.

CLEANING CARPET IN THE GENERAL OFFICE

Any conventional industrial vacuum cleaning method is suitable for carpeted access floor panels. Spot cleaning becomes easy, since the soiled panels can be removed from the floor for convenient off-site stain removal, while temporary panels are put in their place.

Establishing a good maintenance program, starting the day the carpet is installed, will protect your investment and reduce your overall maintenance costs. In addition you will enjoy the beauty and comfort of the carpet for its entire useful life.

Care and use of ASM access floor systems

Access floor systems are supplied and installed in conformance with the requirements set forth by individual specifications and approved submittal documents. It is important to clearly understand the design capabilities of the ASM access floor system in particular products.

Moving and Staging Heavy Loads It is always good practice to lay down 4’X8’ plywood sheets, at a minimum thickness of 1/2”, in a continuous path before moving or installing equipment, fixtures or furnishings where there is con-cern about rolling load damages to the floor. The purpose of the protective sheet(s) is to disperse the rolling load potentials and provide a safe installation. Always ensure that the resulting static load from placing or installing heavy equipment into final or temporary position does not exceed the Concen-trated Load rating.

Removing and Replacing Panels Lift the floor covering to expose the panel surface. A utility knife with a sharp blade may be necessary to cut through any carpet tile adhesive that was spread too heavily and has seeped between the tile edges. Always barrier or tape off all open floor cavity areas from access by the public. Remove the cor-ner lock screw fasteners. Attach the suction cup panel lifter to the panel and pull upward.

The panel/stringer corner lock screws shall always be flush with their corresponding countersink holes. Do not over-Torque. Set torque settings to 15 inch-pounds.

Wiring and Cabling Routing Always exercise cautions when routing telecommunications cables and electrical wiring within the access floor cavity. Do not use the pedestals as a “cable pulley” or “cable roller” fulcrum point during the routing of electrical services or cabling. This can damage cabling and potentially dislodge the pedestal form its grid placement

Adjustments to the floor system Flush Fitting Floor Panels: (Panel Lipping Condition) A properly installed floor panel will be flush with the panel surfaces of the adjacent panels. If the tie edge rises above this horizontal plane and causes a lipped edge:

- Dirt and other debris on the pedestal head can cause the edges to ride above adjacent edges.

Remove panel, clean off any dirt and debris and replace the panel into the grid.

- A high panel edge can also result if a pedestal has been dislodged from its true vertical plane from cable pulling.

Panel “Rockers”:

A panel is said to rock if the panel rises up and down under traffic. Typically this panel has been loaded at some point beyond its rating and has taken a permanent set. Replace with a new panel.

Special Precautions:

1. The use of screwdrivers, pliers, or other objects to pry or lift panels should be prohibited.

2. Do not disturb the level adjustment of the support pedestals and positions of the stringers while floor panels are out of the floor system.

3. When Panels with factory-laminated carpet are reinstalled, use a carpet shoehorn to ensure that carpet tile is not trapped.

4. When reinstalling panels with trim, use a carpet shoehorn to ensure the life of the trim.

5. Always make a final check to see that panels are correctly in place, level and secure.

Care and use of ASM access floor systems

Floor Coverings

Conductive and Static Dissipative The access floor covered with either conductive or static dissipative vinyl tile is designed for years of service by following these guidelines:

Damp Mopping for Conductive and Static Dissipative Vinyl Tile When light soiling is widespread, use this damp-mopping procedure.

- Sweep or vacuum floor thoroughly

- Damp-mop with warm water…
