CLEANING PROCEDURESTo maintain the quality of the product and increase it's durability for a great number of years we suggest you apply the following procedures

General:1- The cleaning of the frames and pans should be done twice a week during the winter season and by-monthly at all other times.

2- Each time you clean your frames and pans, make sure there are no residue or particles between the frame members and the grilles themselves. Ifthis step is not taken, the grates could suffer permanent damage over time.

3- If the units are attached to a drain you should ensure that nothing is blocking the water flow to the drain.

4- The grilles must be cleaned of all debris witch could be stuck between the blades in order to keep all parts straight and properly working.

5- NEVER APPLY WAX or other polishing products to the surface of the grilles, this would create a high risk area on which people would trip andcould badly hurt themselves.

SPECIFICS:

6- All aluminum models should be cleaned with a soapy solution and left to dry.

7- All aluminum surfaced grilles should be cleaned with a mild soap solution and wiped dry.

8- All abrasive surfaced grilles should be freed of all debris with a small plastic scraper and cleaned with a mild soap solution, then left to dry.

9- All models with a carpet insertion will have to be cleaned according to the carpet manufacturer's recommendations such as described in pages******

Options:10- When cleaning all grates, the hinges and lock mechanism should be inspected to ensure that all parts are properly attached to the frame and are functioning properly. All latches should be inspected and greased with water resistant grease such as BSRS 2000. Any unit not functioning properly should be replaced to avoid further problems.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE GUIDE

OCTOBER 1990

INTRODUCTION

The major purpose of the XYZ Company carpet tile maintenance program is to preserve, as nearly as practical, the original beauty and appearanceof the carpet and to prolong its useful life. Your maintenance program thus assists in optimizing the investment in the carpet tile system.

This program confines the majority of maintenance efforts to the areas needing the most attention. Typical trouble spots are those track-off areasthat collect foot soil tracked in from outdoors or from hard surface floors indoors. Also requiring attention are funnel areas where foot traffic issqueezed through concentratedareas such as doorways, stairwells and in front of drinking fountains.

This program recommends preventive measures, cleaning equipment and compatible general cleaning agents, as well as cleaning agents for stainand spot removal for the various substances to which the carpet may be exposed. The program establishes cleaning frequencies on a daily, weekly,monthly or longer cycle basis for types of cleaning systems applicable to specific areas of the building.

PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCEThe most effective element in a building maintenance program is proper attention to the preventive measures that are available to the building owner.Successful restraints begin with careful selection of track-off systems used in entryways and with the prevention of tracking wax, dirt and other foreign matter from other floor surfaces into transitional areas.

To reduce interior maintenance costs, soil should be kept out of the building and off the carpet. Preventive maintenance measures could include theuse of Interface soil-trapping Foyer Tiles in entryways and track-off areas, protective coverings for floors in certain areas and strict rules for confining or eliminating sources of such risks.

Another preventive measure facilitated by the free-lay carpet tile is a planned system of rotation of tiles to minimize the effect of traffic patterns.

VACUUM CLEANING AND PILE LIFTING

1) VACUUMING

Machines with cylinder brushes or brush and beater-bar combinations should be used. The vacuum equipment must be set so that brushes are in contact with the pile surface. Twin motor machines with independent motors for suction and brushing are preferred for this task. Unless power headsare used, canister type machines are generally not recommended.

Vacuum cleaning not only removes soil from the carpet, but also lifts and restores the pile. Areas to be vacuumed should be divided into three separate groups: heavy, medium and light traffic areas.

Heavy traffic areas such as lobbies, entryways and areas subject to immediate off-the-street traffic should be vacuumed daily or twice daily, depending on weather conditions. Often, the need for vacuuming can be determined by visual inspection. Frequent vacuuming in heavy traffic areaswill eliminate much of the soil and prevent it from tracking onto other areas, thereby reducing vacuuming time in other areas.

Light traffic areas usually require vacuuming once or twice weekly.

2) PILE LIFTING:

At least once a week in heavily used areas, a pile-lifter should be used to "open up" the pile and remove buried soil. A pile-lifter should also be usedto precondition carpet for general cleaning. The pile-lifter is also valuable for lifting crushed pile in heavy traffic areas and for loosening caked-onsolids such as mud and food. For best results, the machine should be applied against the lay of the pile.

Where the maintenance schedule calls for pile lifting, it may substitute for vacuuming.

TILE REPLACEMENT AND ROTATION:Some carpet tiles may become so badly stained or damaged to the point that normal cleaning methods are inadequate. These may be replaced fromshelf stock. A tile is removed from the floor by slipping a knife under one corner and peeling the tile from the floor.

Care must be taken when installing the replacement tile to ensure that the tile direction of existing tiles is matched by the replacement tile. Arrowson the reverse side of INTERFACE products assist in determining pile directions.

The face pile of the surrounding tiles should be brushed upright and the replacement tile should be fitted carefully to prevent pile fibers from becoming trapped between tile joints.

A carpet tile taken from shelf stock will have a newer appearance than the one being replaced. Normally, the newness will disappear within a matter of weeks. But should the new tile stand out in sharp contrast to the surrounding tiles in a highly visible area, the owner will find it desirableto shuffle several tiles a "musical chair" fashion. The new tile goes into a less visible area, while the tiles that have aged with use are placed in the

56

more visible area.

Rotation of tiles in heavy traffic areas should be managed in much the same way as replacements. Tiles are moved from no traffic to moderate traffic areas. Tiles subjected to heavy traffic should not be exchanged with tiles that are new or that have received few traffic.

Shelf stock must be worked into the rotational plan so that it ages with the rest of the carpet.

For optimum results, tile rotation needs to be planned in conjunction with and always prior to a general cleaning. The cleaning process helps blendin the disturbed areas. The specifications for such a rotational program will be dependent on the study of actual carpet usage and resulting trafficpatterns. The rotational plan requires a high degree of discipline. The implementation of such a plan is recommended only if management is committed to this concept for prolonging the useful life of the carpet. Such commitment must extend to providing adequate staff.

CLEANING CHEMICALS

In any maintenance program, care must be taken in choosing cleaning chemicals. Cleaning chemicals should fall in the range of 4 pH to 8 pH, butpreferably as close to neutral as possible.

Spotting chemicals will, of necessity, be of high pH value, but these must be used sparingly and should be flushed out with plain water after the spothas been treated.

In addition, cleaning chemicals should be tested for sticky residues which promote re-soiling. As a test, evaporate a chemical solution in a flat dish.If the residue is dry and flaky or powder, it may be used. Do not use detergents that evaporate to a sticky residue, as these will stick to carpet fibers.

Extraction cleaning chemicals should not contain silicone defoamers. These defoamers, if used, should be poured directly into the recovery tank.

SPOT CLEANING:

Effective soil removal procedures are an integral part of the program. Special attention is given to high-risk sources of spills and stains such as washroom and vending areas with coffee machines.

Spots and stains are easily removed, if dealt with immediately. Spills only become stains when allowed to dry; therefore, it is essential to deal withspills promptly. When a spot is identifiable, an appropriate stain remover may be selected.

Removal of unidentifiable stains require a careful approach. If the stain is dry, brush the area with a stiff bristle brush to remove the excess solids.Then, using water and a soft, absorbent cloth, gently agitate the pile surface, working from the outer edge of the stain to its center. Blot the area dryand check for effectiveness of stain removal.

Repeat if necessary. If the stain persists, repeat the process using a mild detergent solution. If the stain is still evident, proceed to the use of a proven dry cleaning fluid,also applied with a soft, white absorbent cloth. Never pour a solvent directly onto a carpet tile; permanent damage to the backing structure will result.When using solvents, make sure the area is well-ventilated and prohibit any smoking.

INTERFACE strongly recommends using a hot-water extractor to remove residues from the treated areas, after spot removal has been completed.In addition to a regular spot removal program, INTERFACE suggests that the program include removal activities prior to carpet cleaning.

Spot cleaning chemicals required:

1) Acid-based for coffee, tea, soft drinks, etc.2) Solvents for tar, grease, oil, etc.3) Chewing gum remover for chewing gum. Use as directed.4) Normal traffic lane pre-sprayer, for most foods, traffic soiling, water-based stains, etc.

Remember, flush out all treated spots with the hot water extraction method.

If obtaining safe cleaning chemicals is difficult, check the IMAG range.

HOT WATER EXTRACTION

1) Vacuum and pre-spot before cleaning.2) Use traffic lane pre-spray sparingly.3) Apply minimum amounts of cleaning solution by moving applicator swiftly and evenly across surface.4) Be sure that at least 75% of cleaning fluid is recovered.5) Mix chemicals carefully, AND DO NOT EXCEED CONCENTRATION RECOMMENDED BY CHEMICAL MANUFACTURER.

Mostly, extraction systems tend to lift the pile surface. However, if it is determined that the pile is becoming compacted, than the carpet should bepile lifted after cleaning and after it becomes dry.

Rotary cleaning is not a preferred method of cleaning. It is, however, effective when the following procedures are followed:1) Vacuum before cleaning, then pre-spot.2) Clean, using recommended chemicals and traffic sprays in strengths recommended by chemical manufacturers.3) Pile lift after cleaning.4) Every 4th cleaning or so, depending on residue build-up, substitute an extraction system and proceed as per the directions outlined under "Hot Water Extraction".

57

DRY FOAM EXTRACTIONDry foam cleaning is not a preferred method. It is effective when the following procedures are followed:1) Use only reel type machines - not rotary.2) Vacuum before cleaning, then pre-spot.3) Clean using recommended chemicals and traffic sprays in strengths recommended by chemical manufacturers.4) Pile lift after cleaning.5) Approximately every 4th cleaning, substitute and extraction system and proceed as per directions outlined under "Hot Water Extraction."

DRY POWDER

Use of the HOST system is recommended, using the following procedures:1) Vacuum and pre-spot.2) Spread powder per manufacturer's instructions. THERMALLY PIGMENTED YARNS (solution dyeing)In our quest for ultimate performance, INTERFACE offers a complete range of products manufactured with Thermally Pigmented yarns. Thesefibershave incredible fastness properties and can withstand cleaning by very aggressive chemical substances.

STAIN REMOVAL PROCEDURE:

1) If the spill is still wet, carefully blot until no trace of the stain is found on the toweling. Extraction with a wet vacuum or extraction unit is best.2) Apply a neutral or acid pH detergent directly to the spot, being careful not to overwet and spread the stain. Gently massage the fibers, workingfrom the outer edge towards the center of the stain. Allow the detergent to work approximately one minute, than blot until no trace of the stain isfound on the toweling. 3) Repeat step 2 until no trace of the stain will transfer onto the toweling.4) Apply white vinegar to the stain if any remains and allow to work a few minutes, than blot well.5) If any stain remains, saturate the stain with 100% household bleach (5.25%) and let stand for 30 minutes to one hour, or until the stain is removed,whichever occurs first.6) Rinse with clean water at least three times, blotting well after each rinsing, again, if extraction is available, this is preferred.

If you have any questions concerning the above procedure, pleasecontact your Interface representative.

PROJECT MANAGER

Michel Massicotte, Eng.Task force of performingtests for Products Division

SUMMARYThe customer GRILLAGE Bolar Inc. anxious to know more about the physical characteristics of its product (foot grille) has called upon the CRIQ(Quebec Industrial Research Center).

Following this request, the CRIQ has evaluated 30 foot grilles on six (6) different tests. See reports PRT-85-117 and PRT-89-052.

The results of these tests have shown that:

-For the same grille, the friction coefficient varies from one type of shoe to the other. As for the grille, the principal variation is noted on the vinylcovered grille which, when wet offers a better friction coefficient than the aluminum or the carpet.

-The percentage of opening varies from 9% to 62%.

-The deflection under live load varies from one grille to the other and, of course, from one span to the other. Apart from models BC-2,BV-2,BSV-2 , the charges vary from 730 to 4610 Newton.

-The distortion under lateral charge shows that certain grilles have been badly damaged whereas others were only slightly damaged. The residualdistortion, as well as the plastic energy deformation are proportional to the damages caused by the charge.

-The salt fog test fog has made the aluminum dull on the top of the grilles while the sides were spotted. The carpet and vinyl have not shown noticeable changes.PRT-85-117PRT-89-052

1.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT

Further to the tests effected in the laboratories of the CRIQ, this technical report is a description of the method used for the testing of the product,the results as a whole and the appropriate conclusions and recommendations.

2.0 AIM OF THE PROJECT

The aim of the project was to make the evaluation of 30 foot grilles following six (6) tests so as to supply technical and/or comparative data fromone model of grille to the other.

3.0 DESCRIPTION OF THE METHODS AND ANALYSIS OF THE RESULTS

The tests have been effectuated on 30 different grilles described in section 3.1 following six (6) tests for which the analysis and results are describedin sections 3.2 to 3.7 inclusively.

3.1. FRICTION COEFFICIENT

59

We define the friction coefficient between two (2) surfaces the same way as we define the traction parallel to the surface applying the weight on thetop of the grille. Also, we obtain the static friction coefficient when the surfaces are not in motion and the dynamic friction coefficient for surfaceswhen in motion. The set-up for the testing has been realized with a Rockford Machine Tool model FR 6-06-32-11 at the CRIQ's workshop at Ste-Foy. To five (5) surfaces of the shoes were mounted on the machine tool with a weight of 50 pounds (22,7 kg). The shoe was laid down on thegrille, which was fixed to the movable part of the machine tool moving at approximately 3 centimeters per second.

The recording of the friction strength was obtained by a load cell connected to a tracing table. The testing periods were for 20 seconds and repeated three times. Tests were performed for the 30 grilles in parallel and perpendicular directions to the bars of the grilles for five (5) differenttypes of surfaces on dry and wet grilles. The letters used in the charts are corresponding to the following shoes:

-A: shoe with a checkered sole-B: working boot-C: jogging running shoe-D: ankle boot with a hard rubber sole-E: rubber surface

The results of the tests have shown that for the shoes utilized, no coefficient of static friction has been obtained.

This is probably due to the fact that the ungluing of the sole occurs progressively and not in a block.

Furthermore, it was noted that there was a high variation of the friction, the minimum being from 0,30 and the maximum from 2,1. We have alsonoted that some factors were influencing this coefficient. First, the type of sole makes the friction coefficient variable. In decreasing order, we findthe shoe with a checkered sole (a), rubber surface (e), jogging shoe (c), working boot (b) and the ankle foot (d), when the grilles were dry. Whenthe grilles were wet, the soles (c) and (e) had practically the same values.

Secondly, the results have shown that the orientation of the sole on the grille, either perpendicular of parallel to the bars, was sometimes influencing thefriction coefficient. In the case of the dry grille with aluminum top, the coefficient is higher when the sole is parallel to the bars. In the other cases,the results have shown that the orientation of the sole on the grille was sometimes influencing one way and sometimes the other way.

Thirdly, the type of surface was influencing the friction coefficient. To better discern it, the chart 5 indicates the average friction coefficients for aluminum, vinyl and carpet. We note that for the dry surfaces, the three coefficients are near 1,0, however, when the surfaces are wet all the frictioncoefficients are reducing but not in the same proportions. In fact, the aluminum surfaces have a weaker friction coefficient, whereas the vinylremains the highest.

3.2. PERCENTAGE OF OPENING

The percentage of opening has been evaluated for each of the 30 grilles from the width of the bars and the spacing. In the case of the BSA-1 grillebearing #2, the percentage of opening includes the spacing between the bars and the grooves made with a saw.

In the case of the grilles covered with carpet, we have established that the percentage of opening is the spacing between the bars, serving as holderfor the carpet. The percentage of the variable obtained is 9% for the carpet grille #6 and 62% for the grilles #3 and #8, model BA-2.

3.3. CLEANING EFFICIENCY

The aim of this test was to compare the cleaning efficiency of the different grilles. Following a research of standards and unable to find one, wehave defined our own method. The set-up used is similar to the one used for the friction coefficient. The working boot with a load of 50 pounds is supported by the tool-holder of the filing-vice ROCKFORD MACHINE TOOL model FR 6-06-32-11. The grille is fixed at the movable part of themachine tool.

The clean boot was weighed and an even coat of clay of 100 gr. was applied to the sole. More specifically, a preparation of 3190.0 grams of 40 FSiam clay mixed with 500 ml of water. Then the boot was again weighed. After the second weighing, the boot with the load of 50 pounds was seton the grille and pulled on a length of 42,5 cm (the hook holding the boot at 5,0 cm above the grille). Finally, the boot was weighed for the thirdtime, this enabled us to calculate the mass of clay which was removed.

The formula used was as follows:

% of cleaning = boot after cleaning - clean boot-------------------------------- X 100boot before cleaning - clean boot

This gives us the (%) percentage of clay removed during the cleaning period. The results compiled inside chart #1 of annex A are based on threetests. The pictures #4 to #22 indicate the set-up used and the clay left by the footprints on the grilles.

The results obtained during the tests have demonstrated that for the aluminum grilles, the percentage of cleaning was always very close to 50%except for the grille BSA-1, which was 69%. The vinyl surfaces have shown a percentage of cleaning of 47%, a value very close to the aluminumgrilles.

Finally, the grilles covered with carpet have obtained the highest percentage of cleaning with 76% and 77%.

These high values are due to the fact that the fibber of the carpet removed the clay located in the grooves of the sole, which could not be obtainedwith the other grilles. However, these carpet grilles are not conceived for this kind of use, which reflects a very severe utilization.3.4 DEFLECTION UNDER LIVE LOAD

60

The aim of this test was to obtain a deflection of 1/180 of the span on the different grilles. The tests have been realized for a span of 24 inches (610mm) and 32 inches (810 mm). The values obtained for a span of 48 inches (1220 mm) have been extrapolated from the first two. The test has beenmade with an MTS hydraulic machine. The load has been applied at the center of the span with a 4 inchs square surface. We note that to obtain comparative results, it would be necessary to retake a same square surface of 4 inches on the side. The registration of the load in term of the deflection was made by the MTS machine and is shown at annex C "GRAPHIC RESULTS".

We find at the beginning of the curve, an area with a very weak slope. It corresponds to the deflection due to the position of the grille on its supports and if it is the case, it does flatten the carpet. The second portion of the curve is linear and the slope of the curve is stiffer and correspondsto the rigidity of the grille. After obtaining the maximum load, the curve comes down a little to the right of the first curve to come back to its original point. The calculation of the necessary load for a deflection of 1/180 of the span is made from the slopes measured on the curves. We rejectthen the additional deflections corresponding to the position of the grille and the flatness of the carpet to consider only the deflection of the grille.The method of calculation and the results are found at annex B "Calculation of Deflections under live load".

3.5 DISTORTION UNDER LATERAL LOAD

The application of a load or of a great impact on the surface of a grille entails undesirable permanent distortion. The aim of this test is to comparethe different models of the grilles submitted to a heavy lateral load.

To carry out the tests, the following method was used:

-The grille was leaning on its two side supports.

-A maximum load of 6130 Newton (1380 pounds) was then applied at 45 degrees with respect to the surface of the grille, at the center of two rods.

-The load was applied by means of one (1) inch square steel bar of high tensile strength.

-The load was applied slowly and a load curve, corresponding to the distortion, has been obtained for each grille.

The results obtained from the graphics and from a subjective evaluation of four (4) people are found at chart 7 "Distortion under lateral charge". Wefind the residual plastic energetic distortion of the grille as well as the subjective results of evaluation. At the time of the objective evaluation, grillesnumber 2, 6, 7, 10, 12 & 13 have been considered as being more damaged, while grille #3 has been considered as being the one with less damages.

3.6 SALT FOG

The Salt Fog test has been realized on six samples of grilles supplied by the customer, as per standard ASTM B117 for a period of 1000 hours.

Following the period of 1000 hours, the main observations are as follows:

-For the aluminum, the top of the grilles became dull, while the sides and the underneath were spotted.

-For the carpet, the salt fog had no noticeable effect. The rivets, used to hold the carpet in the aluminum grooves, have not undergone any noticeable changes.

-For the vinyl, the salt fog had no noticeable effect. However, the screws that were holding it have rusted.

The photographs of the samples taken before and after the test of the salt fog will be found at annex E, under 33 to 44.

4.0 CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Following the six (6) tests realized on the 30 different models of grilles, we have reached the following conclusions:

From the six tests, one is unable to say that one model of grille is better than the other. One must consider each test and take into consideration theimportance that it represents for the user, thus for industrial use, one will have advantage to use a grille resisting to lateral charges with a high liveload, whereas for commercial use, one will have advantage to consider the cleaning efficiency.

The tests results will help the user of grilles to make a more judicious choice.
