2、n or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 The purpose of this practice is to delineate requirementsregarding the desi

3、gn, manufacture, installation, operation,maintenance, inspection and major modification of commercialor institutional trampoline courts with the primary purpose ofamusement, entertainment or recreation.1.2 This standard applies to institutional trampoline courtsthat are located in and around amuseme

4、nt, entertainment orrecreational facilities. Such facilities include but are not limitedto trampoline parks, amusement parks, theme parks, waterparks, family entertainment centers, fitness centers, gyms,gymnastics facilities, sports facilities, skate parks, camps,shopping centers, temporary special

5、events, carnivals andmunicipal parks.1.3 This standard applies to devices manufactured on orafter the date of publication of this standard practice.1.4 This practice establishes guidelines that will provide alevel of conformity for the purpose of reducing potentialhazards to patrons, court attendant

6、s, and spectators.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thehazards associated with institutional trampoline courts. Thestandards existence alone will not prevent injuries. Like otherphysical activities, institutional trampoline court use involvesthe risk of injury, particularly if the

7、 equipment is usedimproperly or if users exceed their capabilities, endurance,training, or experience.1.6 The text of this standard references notes and footnoteswhich provide explanatory material. These notes and footnotes(excluding those in tables and figures) shall not be consideredas requirement

The annex info

9、rmationshall be interpreted as mandatory criteria.1.8 This practice includes an appendix (non-mandatory),which provides additional information (for example, rationale,background, interpretations, drawings, commentary, and soforth) to improve the users understanding and application ofthe criteria pre

10、sented in this practice.
