"Standard Test Methods for Foot Protection"

These test methods contain requirements to evaluate the performance of footwear for the following: Impact resistance for the toe area of footwear (I); Compression resistance for the toe area of footwear (C); Metatarsal protection that reduces the chance of injury to the metatarsal bones at the top of the foot (Mt); Conductive properties which reduce hazards that may result from static electricity buildup, and reduce the possibility of ignition of explosives and volatile chemicals (Cd); Electric hazard to protect the wearer when accidentally stepping on live wires (EH); Static dissipative properties to reduce hazards that result in a build up of static charge where there is an underlying risk of accidental contact with live electrical circuits (SD); Puncture resistance footwear devices (PR).

A definitive procedure that produces a test result: Examples of test methods include, but are not limited to: identification, measurement, and evaluation of one or more qualities, characteristics, or properties. A precision and bias statement shall be reported at the end of a test method.

All equipment and/or accessories (whether or not detachable) designed and manufactured specifically to protect the foot and/or the leg and to provide anti-slip protection. This category includes protection against static electricity, risk of explosion, falling or rolling objects, crushing or penetrating, protection from exposure to hot substances and/or corrosive or poisonous materials
