BS EN 17326 discusses surfaces for sports areas. BS EN 17326 specifies a method for determining the dimensional stability (bowing and curling) of shock pads used within sports surface systems.
BS EN 17326 on surfaces for sports areas is useful for:
The state of the shock pads can impact the outcome of a sporting activity. Bowing and curling can distort the results in terms of player performance. Ensuring that these shock pads are in top condition is important for reflecting the accurate outcome.
The shock pad is subjected to repeated impacts and any changes in the performance of the structure of the shock pad is measured. BS EN 17326 provides a method for determining the dimensional stability of shock pads used within sports surface systems to ensure safety measures.
