Standard Test Method for Playground Surface Impact Testing in Laboratory at Specified Test Height

Importancia y uso:

5.1 The purpose of this test method is to determine the shock absorption properties of a playground surface at a specific impact height in order to evaluate a particular playground surfacing system using the g-max and HIC criteria as outlined in Specification F1292. This will allow the owner/operator to specify certain minimums that they desire for their playground surface in relation to their playground equipment fall height and can be confirmed in the field after installation or throughout the functional life for the surface system utilizing Test Method F3313.

5.2 This test method is to be used as a reference for specifying the impact attenuation performance of playground surfaces and the height from which they are tested.
