Abstract
Regarding the application of ceramic tiles there is a great importance of defining and measuring slip resistance of floor coverings. The objective of this study was to determine slipperiness of ceramic tiles and to make a comparative analysis on the different measurement methods. Laboratory slip resistance tests were conducted on 28 different ceramic tiles by three different methods providing the average angle of inclination, the pendulum test value and the coefficient of friction. By comparing the obtained test results, relationship between individual methods was determined. Based on this information Ceramic Floor Slipperiness Classification (CFSC), a new system was prepared concerning the selection and application of tiles.
