Surfaces for Sports Areas - Multi-Sports Floor Systems for Indoor Use - Test Method for Determination of Rotational Friction
Also Known As:
A spinning foot with a vertical load is tested for friction against multi-sport floor systems according to the European standard DIN EN 14903. The standard outlines a procedure for carrying out these tests, which can be done both in a lab and on-site.
This standard's goal is to guarantee that multi-sport floor systems adhere to the appropriate safety standards for indoor use. The standard intends to evaluate these surfaces' suitability for sporting activities by measuring their rotational friction, taking into account elements like player performance, injury avoidance, and overall surface quality.
The Technical Committee CEN/TC 217 Surfaces for Sports Areas, which has AFNOR as its secretariat, created the standard. It is a component of a larger set of norms for surfaces in sports facilities, demonstrating the industry's dedication to ensuring the reliability and security of sports flooring in a range of applications.
