Identical adoption of ISO 1765:1986, this standard specifies a basic method for the determination of the thickness of machine-made textile floor coverings. Where areas of different thickness or construction exist, these should be tested separately if possible.

This Standard specifies a method for the assessment of the burning behaviour often superficial of textile floor coverings in a horizontal position when exposed to a small source of ignition under controlled laboratory conditions. The method specified in this Standard is applicable to all types of textile floor coverings whatever their construction or their fibre composition. The method may also be applicable to unfinished material. In this case, the result does not indicate the behaviour of the material in the condition in which it is used.

This Standard describes a method for measuring the thickness, compression and recovery characteristics of textile floor coverings.

This Standard specifies a method for the determination of the number of tufts and/or loops per unit length and per unit area of a carpet, and is applicable to carpets the pile of which consists of uniformly spaced tufts and/or loops.

This Standard sets out a method for determining the colourfastness of textile floor coverings and pile yarns to dry and wet rubbing.

This Standard specifies a method for determining the dimensions of rectangular textile floor coverings, both hand-made and machine-made, having a length to width ratio of less than 5.

This Standard describes the procedure for determining the average tuft length of the pile of a textile floor covering.

This Standard sets out a method for determining the colourfastness of a textile floor covering to the action of a specified shampoo solution.

This Standard specifies a method for determination of thickness loss of textile floor coverings after prolonged, heavy static loading. It is applicable to all textile floor coverings of uniform thickness and construction. It does not apply to other textile floor coverings unless the areas of different thickness or construction can be separately tested.

This Standard specifies a method for the determination of thickness loss of textile floor coverings after brief, moderate static loading, and is intended to simulate the effect of the pressure exerted by a chair leg for a short period. It is applicable to all textile floor coverings of uniform thickness and construction. It does not apply to other textile floor coverings unless the areas of different thickness or construction can be separately tested.
