Figure 5.ADAM-excel sheet as it is currently used by DIBt for submission of emission tests in theapproval procedure. This example shows the ADAM evaluation sheet for a floor covering tested

after 3, 7 and 28 days. The exclamation marks mean that the criteria for a break-off of the test are

not fulfilled.
