What is this BS 7044-2.2 - Methods for determination of person/surface interaction about?
BS 7044-2.2 discusses artificial sports surfaces and methods of test with a focus on methods for determination of person/surface interaction. BS 7044-2.2 is the second part of the BS 7044 multi-series on artificial sports surfaces that describes methods of test for the determination of traction, sliding distance, slip resistance, and peak deceleration of artificial sports surfaces.
Who is BS 7044-2.2 - Methods for determination of person/surface interaction for?
BS 7044-2.2 on methods for determination of person/surface interaction is useful for:
- Sports federations
- Sports facilities
- Stadiums authorities
- Sporting commission officials
Why should you use BS 7044-2.2 - Methods for determination of person/surface interaction?
A weighted foot is rotated from a stationary position against a surface and the force required to cause movement is measured.
BS 7044-2.2 provides a method that is suitable for testing all types of artificial sports surfaces, both on test pieces in the laboratory and surfaces installed on site. The result obtained gives a measure of the resistance of movement of the player’s foot on the surface.
