Resumen This study found that the slip potential of many conglomerate stone floor tiles changed after comparatively little wear. Decreases of up to 30% in the measured slip resistance of floor surfaces in both dry and water-wet conditions were observed. Although this was a rapid change that tended to level out, it showed a difference between the ex-factory slip resistance and that of the installed floor. This could lead to duty holders having a false impression of the slip resistance of the floor under their management, potentially leading them to provide unsuitable control measures for the management of slip hazards.
