A certain amount of athletic ability and the use of protective measures (correct spotting methods, crash pads, etc.) considerably redu

14、ce accident risks. Where bouldering walls are located near or within playgrounds or other similar public areas, they should be adequately segregated from the general play area by means of fencing or other structural enclosures. If the bouldering walls are not sufficiently segregated, they are to be

15、deemed playground equipment and thus are to comply with EN 1176-1. The equipment is then to be marked accordingly.

It shall be up to 4 000 mm high, where it is possible to stand on the top. 4.2 Impact absorbing materi

41、al 4.2.1 General The impact absorbing material shall be adapted to accept a fall from at least the maximum height of the bouldering wall at the bottom of which it is installed. 4.2.2 Impact attenuation 4.2.2.1 Impact attenuating capacity for foam safety mats The most common indoor impact absorbing m

42、aterials are foam safety mats. When tested according to Annex C, the boulder mat shall comply with the values of Table 1.

43、tdoor impact absorbing materials is shingle. When shingle is used it shall be washed, rounded and be between 8 mm and 16 mm in diameter and have a minimum depth of 400 mm. DIN EN 12572-2:2017-05 EN 12572-2:2017 (E) 6 For bouldering wall heights greater than 3 000 mm, as the impact attenuating capaci

44、ty of shingle may not be sufficient to safely absorb all falls, a notice shall be erected at the bouldering wall site warning climbers that the use of this bouldering wall is more like climbing at a natural site, and therefore they should use other regular techniques for protecting each other such a

45、s: hand spotting, use of crash pads (individual protection mats) etc. This information shall be visible and accessible to all. 4.2.2.3 Impact attenuating capacity for other types of impact absorbing material For other types of material such as water, air cushion, net, rubber, bark etc. relevant stan

46、dards for the selected material should be followed where applicable. 4.3 Impact area 4.3.1 Size of the impact area Extent of the impact area L: if the bouldering wall height is equal to or less than 3 000 mm, the ground projection of the bouldering wall shall be extended by L1 2 000 mm ; if the heig

47、ht of the bouldering wall is greater than 3 000 mm, the ground projection of the bouldering wall shall be extended by L1 2 500 mm , see Figure 1. if the bouldering wall is vertical or less than 10 overhanging with no holds on the side walls, the impact area either side of the bouldering wall L2 can
