System Performance Criteria
The Performance Charts below are divided into two sections to help you evaluate the overall performance of the systems.  The System Performance Criteria are the most important to consider because they represent the performance in a typical installation.  Panel Only Criteria such as Concentrated Load is often used to specify access floor systems; however, the test is not representative of an actual installation because it is performed with the panel resting on blocks, not understructure.
