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 goal of the DIN EN 17467 standard is to quantify the residual deformation of organic or synthetic filler grains used in sports facilities. The standard offers a test procedure for calculating the degree of deformation that occurs in the infill granules upon application of a static load. This is a crucial criterion for evaluating the effectiveness and caliber of synthetic turf surfaces used in athletic facilities.
The process for performing the test, which entails applying a static load to the surface and then measuring the deformation of the infill grains, is described in the standard. A visual inspection is also part of the test procedure to check for any potential alterations in the granules' integrity or appearance.
This standard aids in assessing the impact resistance and tensile strength of synthetic turf surfaces by calculating the residual deformation of the infill granules. It offers useful data that manufacturers, installers, and maintenance staff can use to evaluate the effectiveness and durability of sports surfaces.
