DIN EN 15301-2 PDF Download

For measuring the shear strength of unbound mineral surfaces used in sports facilities, refer to the DIN EN 15301-2 standard. This standard specifies a method for determining the shear strength through dynamic top layer testing in a lab environment.

This standard aims to develop a trustworthy and uniform method for assessing the shear strength of unbound mineral surfaces. This standard assists in ensuring the performance and longevity of sports surfaces, which are essential for athletes' safety when participating in sports activities.

The testing process entails applying dynamic loading conditions to the mineral surfaces in a lab setting. The objective is to evaluate the surface's resistance to shearing pressures, which can be brought on by a variety of things like collisions, movements, or external loads. The standard enables precise and reproducible measurements of shear strength by carrying out these tests in a controlled laboratory environment.
