Severe head injuries are the most frequently implicated cause of death inplayground equipment-related falls. Use of appropriate impact-attenuating surfac

In particular, it is believedthat the risk of life-threatening head injuries is reduced when appropriate surfacing materials areinstalled.This specification specifies impact attenuation performance requi

5、rements for playground surfacesand surfacing materials and provides a means of determining impact attenuation performance using atest method that simulates the impact of a childs head with the surface. The test method quantifiesimpact in terms of g-max and Head Injury Criterion (HIC) scores. G-max i

6、s the measure of themaximum acceleration (shock) produced by an impact. The Head Injury Criterion or HIC score is anempirical measure of impact severity based on published research describing the relationship betweenthe magnitude and duration of impact accelerations and the risk of head trauma. The
