Surfaces for Sports Areas - Test Method for the Determination of the Residual Deformation of Synthetic or Organic Infill Granules after Static Load
Also Known As:
The test involves applying a static load to a test specimen for a predetermined amount of time, and the standard provides instructions for carrying out the test. The residual deformation of the granules is measured and visually observed after the load has been removed. This makes it possible to assess the granules' capacity to regain their original form and characteristics following exposure to a static load.
This test evaluates the long-term performance and sturdiness of the infill grains used in sports surfaces. If the granules maintain their intended properties after being subjected to static loads, such as shock absorption and energy restitution, it can be determined by measuring the residual deformation. This knowledge is essential for guaranteeing the functionality and safety of athletic surfaces.
The requisite equipment, test methodology, and data analysis are all described in depth in the standard. Additionally, it offers guidelines for reporting the outcomes. Following this standard gives producers and buyers of infill granules a standardized way to assess and compare the performance of various products. This aids in the creation of secure, high-quality sports surfaces, enhancing athletes' enjoyment and well-being.
