Same level falls represent about one quarter of all work accidents involving stoppage. In part, the origin of the accident is the loss of equilibrium due to slipping. INRS has been developing and using two test methods, (LabINRS and PFT - Portable…

LabINRS is a laboratory test bench intended to measure the dynamic friction coefficient ( d) of a floor covering.
This document gives the measurement protocol with the LabINRS and the results of measurements performed on a panel of fifteen floor…

Portable Friction Tester (PFT) is a device test bench intended to measure, in laboratory and on site, the dynamic friction coefficient ( d) of a floor covering.
This document gives the measurement protocol with the PFT and the results of measurements…

Many work situations require the use of knee protectors, which are tested according to European Standard EN 14404. The objective of this study was to analyse the relevance of certain parameters for testing bearing force distribution, in particular…
