ASTM F150-25 covers electrical resistance testing of conductive and static-dissipative resilient flooring in tile or sheet form. It applies where static electricity generated by personnel is a concern, including the example environments listed in the standard.
Material form
The scope is limited to resilient flooring, in either tile or sheet form.
Applications
F150-25 names hospitals, computer rooms, clean rooms, access flooring, and munition plants as example applications. Any other environment where personnel-generated static electricity is a concern also falls within the scope.
How F150-25 defines dissipative floor material
F150-25 defines dissipative floor material as floor material that has a resistance of at least 1.0 × 10⁶ Ω and less than 1.0 × 10⁹ Ω.
Section 3.1.1 defines conductive flooring but omits the comparison symbol before its upper value of 1.0 × 10⁶ Ω. If a measurement lands exactly at that boundary, Craftsman Concrete recommends recording the measured resistance and confirming the intended classification with the project’s specifier before using it in an acceptance decision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. ASTM F150-25 covers electrical conductance or resistance testing of conductive and static-dissipative resilient flooring in either tile or sheet form.
No. ASTM F150-25 lists hospitals, computer rooms, clean rooms, access flooring, and munition plants, and also includes other environments concerned with personnel-generated static electricity. Its material scope remains resilient flooring in tile or sheet form.
ASTM F150-25 defines dissipative floor material as having a resistance of at least 1.0 × 10⁶ Ω and less than 1.0 × 10⁹ Ω.
