Concrete Coating Finish Texture (CFT): SSPC Standard for Texture Categories

High performance concrete coatings are frequently applied with a grade of texture to improve traction and safety. The finished texture is dependent upon the size and type of aggregate, application method and density, and the amount of topcoat applied over the texture. Defining the degree of texture within a specification and translating the description to installation has typically been left to individual interpretations.

High performance concrete coatings are frequently applied with a grade of texture to improve traction and safety. The finished texture is dependent upon the size and type of aggregate, application method and density, and the amount of topcoat applied over the texture. Defining the degree of texture within a specification and translating the description to installation has typically been left to individual interpretations. Product samples and project mock-ups help to clarify expectations. Unfortunately, samples are generally not produced by the installing contractor and mock-ups can be expensive and time consuming. SSPC has developed a texture standard to classify degrees of texture to facilitate the communication process during project specification, installation, as well as maintaining the required texture throughout the life of the floor. This presentation summarizes the texture classification and tactile coupons defined by the standard.
