26、he structure of the trampolinecourt or immediately adjacent structure and shall have adequate strength for the intended forces produced by the trampoline courtand the reasonably foreseeable actions of the patron(s).6.5.1.1 When an immediately adjacent wall is used for patron containment, the distanc
27、e between TC frame and the wall shallnot exceed 3 in. (7.62 cm).6.6 Loads and Strengths:6.6.1 The designer/engineer shall perform and document a risk analysis.6.6.2 Trampoline courts shall be designed so that load conditions expected during operation shall not cause failures during theoperational ho
28、urs assumed in the analysis.6.6.2.1 An exception to 6.6.2 may be made in the case of components and portions of structures that are intended to providesecondary load paths during a failure condition. Components such as safety cables or links and certain limited portions of theprimary structure that
29、they are attached to, may be designed to yield (and thus absorb a significant amount of energy) whensubjected to load conditions expected to occur during a plausible, although unlikely primary structure failure scenario. In suchcases, the expected failure mode loading shall not cause rupture to occu
30、r (that is, the stresses shall not exceed the ultimate strength).Designs that rely on such criteria shall utilize materials that possess high elongation for components where stresses may beexpected to exceed the yield strength under failure mode loading conditions.6.7 Patron Weight:6.7.1 The weight
31、assigned to an adult or child patron, for design purposes, shall be 170 lb (77.11 kg).6.7.2 The designer/engineer may assign higher weight values for design purposes in accordance with the requirements of thisstandard practice.6.7.3 As a nonfatigue, dynamic case, trampoline courts shall be designed
32、for occasional full or partial loads of large adultparticipants weighing 300 pounds (136.08 kg) per participant or an appropriate lesser amount if recommended by the trampolinecourt manufacturer. This means that if an adult patron weighing 300 pounds (136.08 kg) is restricted from participation by s
33、ignageor other means recommended by the manufacturer, then the trampoline court does not have to be designed to accommodate foroccasional full or partial loads of large adult patrons weighing 300 pounds (136.08 kg). In this case, the trampoline court shall bedesigned to accommodate occasional full o
34、r partial loads of the heaviest adult patrons that the trampoline court is designed toaccommodate.6.8 Variable loads (that is, live load) for a trampoline court include all loads that fluctuate with respect to time. Variable loadsare divided into four subsets: operational loads, nonoperational loads
35、, environmental loads, operation in wind and non-operationalin wind.6.8.1 Operational (Dynamic) Loads:6.8.1.1 Operational loads include varying loads normally encountered during operation of the trampoline court.6.8.2 Nonoperational Loads:6.8.2.1 All loads associated with transportation or handling
36、or both (that is, setting up, tearing down) and ongoing maintenanceof portable and permanent trampoline courts shall be considered in the analysis.6.8.3 Environmental Loads:6.8.3.1 Portable trampoline courts shall be designed to resist all designer/engineer defined environmental loads.6.8.3.2 Fixed
37、or permanent trampoline courts shall be designed to resist all applicable environmental loads for the intendedlocation in accordance with the environmental loads in the applicable building codes for the intended location.6.8.3.3 The designer/engineer shall clearly indicate the environmental loads th
38、e trampoline court was designed for, in theoperating and maintenance instructions. Refer to Practice F1193-06. In addition to the environmental load information, anyrestrictions, limitations, or special procedures associated with trampoline courts exposed to these environmental loads shall beinclude
39、d.6.8.4 Operation in Wind:6.8.4.1 As a minimum, trampoline courts exposed to wind shall be designed to operate in winds up to 34 mph (15 m/s).6.8.4.2 The designer/engineer or manufacturer shall include any restrictions, limitations, or special procedures for the operationof a trampoline court expose
40、d to wind, in the operating and maintenance instructions. See section on Manufacturers Responsibilityof Practice F1193-06.6.8.5 Nonoperational in Wind:F2970 1756.8.5.1 The designer/engineer or manufacturer shall include any restrictions, limitations, or special procedures for nonoperatingor out-of-s
41、ervice trampoline courts, and their associated components exposed to wind, in the operating and maintenanceinstructions. See section on Manufacturers Responsibility of Practice F1193-06.6.9 Design:6.9.1 A structural analysis shall be performed for each trampoline court to verify that there is adequa
42、te structural capability inthe design.6.9.2 The type of calculation or analysis selected shall be a widely recognized and generally accepted engineering practice.6.9.3 The structural analyses performed shall consider and incorporate all significant loads and identify all significant stressesand stra
43、ins that are anticipated to be experienced by the trampoline court.6.9.4 The required strength of the structure and its elements shall be demonstrated both statically and dynamically using aminimum of five times the weight of an adult patron per 6.7.1.6.9.5 Structures shall be analyzed to verify tha
44、t significant plastic deformation or collapse or both does not occur under anyanticipated loading condition, consistent with the analysis expected to occur a limited number of times throughout the operationalhours used in the design. Examples include environmental loads, patrons attempting to apply
45、excessive (that is, abusive) loads, andextremely heavy patron weights.6.9.6 A deflection analysis shall be performed if deformations in structural members or structural systems due to expectedloading conditions could impair the serviceability of the structure.6.9.7 The structural analysis for the tr
46、ampoline court shall consider “strength” and “fatigue” criteria in the evaluation of stressesresulting from the application of loads. The number of times that a specific load or combination of loads is expected to occurthroughout the designated number of operational hours for the trampoline court sh
47、all determine whether the resulting stress levelswill be compared to strength or strength and fatigue material allowables.The method of analysis and load factors applied to specificloads shall be selected and based upon the number of times loads are expected to occur during the specified number of o
48、perationalhours (that is, strength versus fatigue evaluation).6.9.8 The yield and ultimate strengths and fatigue properties of the materials utilized for all components that could affect safetyupon failure of the component shall be evaluated. Empirical testing, or empirical testing in combination wi
49、th analysis, may be usedas a means of evaluating the strength and fatigue properties of the materials for these components. If empirical testing is used forevaluation, the designer/engineer shall clearly specify and describe the testing procedure and refer to the section on Testing ofPractice F1193-06.7.
