BS 7044-2.3 discusses artificial sports surfaces and methods of test with a focus on methods for determination of person/surface interaction. BS 7044-2.3 is the second part of the BS 7044 multi-series on artificial sports surfaces that describes methods of test for the determination of abrasion resistance to abrasive wheels, abrasion resistance to metal blades, fatigue resistance, low-temperature impact resistance, spike resistance, and resistance to indentation of artificial sports surfaces.
BS 7044-2.3 on methods for determination of person/surface interaction is useful for:
A test piece is abraded by the action of a pair of abrasive wheels, and the resulting loss in mass is measured.
BS 7044-2.3 provides a method that is suitable for testing all types of artificial sports surfaces, other than artificial grasses, using test pieces in the laboratory. The result obtained gives a measure of the resistance of the surface to abrasion by abrasive wheels. This helps you to determine the factors or conditions that can damage the sports surfaces.
