BS EN 12234:2013EN 12234:2013 (E) 6 For determination of ball rolling distance, prepare the test specimen of minimum width 1,0 m and of sufficient length to ensure that the ball comes to rest not less than 100 mm from the side and 250 mm from the far end of the test piece. For determination

25、of velocity change, prepare the test specimen of minimum width 1 m and minimum length 2 m. NOTE Tests for field hockey may require a wider test piece to allow ball roll deviation to be measured. As the infill material will influence the results, it is required that each system and infill type is tes

26、ted. 6 Conditioning Condition the specimens for a minimum of 3 h at the test temperature. Unless otherwise specified, condition and test the specimen at a temperature of (23 2) C. For tests on site, condition the ball for a minimum of 1 h at the prevailing ambient temperature. 7 Procedure 7.1 Ball r

27、olling procedure For tests being conducted on site, determine the wind speed at the test site (4.7). If the wind speed at the test site exceeds 3,2 km/h, do not proceed with the determination unless a shielding system can be used to mitigate the influence of the wind whilst not interfering with the

28、test method. Set the ball roll ramp (4.2) with the aid of the bubble level (4.3) and alignment device (4.4) vertically upon the test surface or specimen, curvature and distance between the parallel bars for the type of ball, as given in Figures 1 and 2. Place the ramp at a height so that the vertica

29、l distance between the base of the ball and the point where it first makes contact with the surface is (1 000 5) mm. Release the ball and allow it to roll until it comes to rest. Measure the distance from the point at which the ball first touched the surface to the point below the centre of the ball

30、 at which it is resting on the surface. In the laboratory, if the ball travels within 100 mm of an edge of the test surface or specimen, disregard the result and repeat the procedure. Repeat the procedure to obtain five readings of ball roll distance. Move the ramp slightly between each procedure to

31、 avoid tracking. In the laboratory the test should be conducted in both directions; for field testing the test should be conducted in four directions (at 90 degree intervals). 7.2 Velocity change For tests being conducted on site, determine the wind speed at the test site (4.7). If the wind speed at

32、 the test site exceeds 3,2 km/h, do not proceed with the determination. Place the timing gates (4.6) on the test surface or specimen, so that the ball is able to pass between them, with a distance between the gates of (1 000 5) mm. Place the ball on the ramp at a suitable height and release the ball

33、 so that it rolls through the two timing gates in turn. Record the time taken for the ball to pass through each gate, the velocity at the first gate being initial velocity and the velocity at the second gate final velocity. Repeat the test to obtain at least five readings of initial and final veloci

34、ty, each time varying slightly the height of the ramp from which the ball is released to vary the initial velocity within a range of 2,5 m/s. Move the ramp slightly between each procedure to avoid tracking. BS EN 12234:2013EN 12234:2013 (E) 7 If the surface has any form of direction variation, for e

35、xample the lay of the pile in synthetic turf, or is laid with a slope for drainage, repeat the test to obtain two sets of readings in the directions giving maximum and minimum values of velocity change. NOTE It might be necessary to determine these directions by trial. For test specimens, this can e

36、ntail the preparation of specimens with the long axis, perpendicular to and parallel to the manufacturing direction. 7.3 Determinations under wet conditions If wet testing is required, prepare the test specimen in accordance with the relevant product specification. 8 Calculation and expression of re

37、sults 8.1 Ball rolling distance Calculate the mean of the five values obtained, in metres, for each direction of test. Report the mean value(s) as the ball rolling distance(s). 8.2 Velocity change From the distance between sensors in each timing gate (4.6) and the times recorded when the ball passes

38、 through them, calculate the initial and final velocities of the ball for each direction of test. Plot the measured values of velocity change against the initial velocities separately for each direction of test. From the resulting graph(s), interpolate to obtain the velocity change at an initial vel

39、ocity of 2,5 m/s. Report the results as velocity change per metre, where one metre is the distance between the timing gates, for each direction of test. 9 Test report The test report shall include the following information: a) number of this European Standard, i.e. EN 12234; b) complete description

40、of the surface tested, including the manufacturers reference, type of supporting layers and method of attachment; c) conditions under which the test was carried out, i.e. laboratory conditions and details of conditioning, or on site, ambient conditions including maximum wind speed during the tests;

41、d) temperature at which the test was carried out; e) condition of the surface at the time of test, i.e. wet or dry, and a brief description of any wetting procedure to which the surface has been subjected; f) details of any directional variation of the surface; g) description of the type of ball use

42、d in the test; h) for each direction tested, either the mean ball rolling distance or the velocity change per metre, as appropriate; i) if required, details for any relevant observations made during the test.
