What are the slip resistance standards for marble outdoor trash cans in wet climates?

When installing marble outdoor trash cans in wet climates, ensuring slip resistance is crucial for safety. Key standards include ASTM C1028, which measures the static coefficient of friction (SCOF), with a recommended minimum of 0.60 for level surfaces and 0.80 for slopes to prevent slips. Another standard is DIN 51130, which rates slip resistance on a scale from R9 to R13, where R11 or higher is ideal for wet conditions. These standards help evaluate the surface texture and finish of marble, which can become slippery when wet. Factors like honed or textured finishes improve grip, while polished marble may pose risks. Regular testing and adherence to these guidelines reduce accidents, making public spaces safer. Choosing marble with appropriate slip-resistant properties ensures durability and compliance with safety regulations in rainy or humid environments.
