ASTM F2336-17 PDF Download

With the aim of lowering potential safety hazards, the ASTM F2336-17 standard offers recommendations and provisions for the design and construction of roller hockey rinks. As well as reducing dangers to players and game officials, the standard strives to standardize playing conditions and assure a degree of consistency for competitive play.

The manual is meant to be used by architects, designers, engineers, building contractors, and inspectors who are involved in building new roller hockey rinks or remodeling existing ones. It recognizes that the majority of ice hockey rinks with concrete floors can be used for roller hockey but underlines the requirement for dasher boards that adhere to special standards for this sport. It also emphasizes the possibility that ice hockey cannot be played in spaces exclusively intended for roller hockey.

The standard covers a range of roller hockey facility elements, such as buildings and environments, benches for players and officials off the ice, timing and signaling equipment, nets, rink floor designs, lighting, emergency medical treatment, and signage.
