What is PD CEN/TS 16717 - Surface for sports areas about?
PD CEN/TS 16717 discusses surfaces for sports areas. PD CEN/TS 16717 specifies a method of test for measuring the shock absorption, vertical deformation, and energy restitution characteristics of sports surfaces. PD CEN/TS 16717 is not considered appropriate for rigid sports surfaces that have shock absorbing properties of 10 % FR (Force reduction) or less.
Who is PD CEN/TS 16717 - Surface for sports areas for?
PD CEN/TS 16717 on surface for sports areas is useful for:
- Sports federations
- Test laboratories
- Sports facilities
- Stadiums
- Government authorities
- Sporting commission officials
Why should you use PD CEN/TS 16717 - Surface for sports areas?
shock is usually associated with adverse effects on objects or individuals, it will ultimately cause inefficiencies, such as waste, rework, and downtime. PD CEN/TS 16717 specifies test for the determination of shock absorption, vertical deformation, and energy restitution using the advanced artificial athlete. therefore, PD CEN/TS 16717 helps to increase the lifespan and/or the safe operation of the sports surfaces.
PD CEN/TS 16717 specifies a method of test for measuring the shock absorption, vertical deformation, and energy restitution characteristics of sports surfaces to ensure safety measures.
