This European Standard shall be given the status
12、 of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by July 2014, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by July 2014. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
13、patent rights. CEN and/or CENELEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. This document supersedes EN 12229:2007. In comparison with the previous edition, the test method has been revised to more precisely define the design of the studded roller used within the t
14、est equipment. In particular, the positioning of the studs on the conditioning roller is now precisely specified.

BS EN 12229:2014EN 12229:2014 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies a procedure for the preparation of test pieces of synthetic turf and needle-punch sports surfaces. 2 Terms and definitions For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions ap

19、st piece representative specimen of the surfacing and any supporting layers, if required 3 Preparation of test pieces 3.1 Test pieces, with dimensions as specified in the appropriate test method, shall be cut from a sample of surfacing. Test pieces shall not be taken within 100 mm of any edge of a s
20、ample or its constituent parts. Test pieces shall be taken in an even distribution across the sample. 3.2 For tests in which the characteristics being measured are influenced by the supporting layers, as detailed in the appropriate test method, the surfacing shall be laid on supporting layers of equ
21、ivalent materials and construction to that used on an installation. The supporting layers of the test piece shall be prepared in accordance with the instructions provided by the manufacturer or supplier. When preparing the supporting layers, take care to ensure that the depth and consolidation of ma
22、terials simulates the conditions obtained during the installation of the product. If laboratory test pieces incorporating the supporting layers are being prepared in containers, take care to ensure that the design of the container does not influence the test results. 3.3 The surfacing shall be laid
23、free of creases and with minimal disturbance or damage onto the supporting layers. Record in the test report any creases or defects resulting from the manufacturing of the surfacing. Reject the surfacing if it has any defects resulting from storage or transportation. BS EN 12229:2014EN 12229:2014 (E
24、) 5 3.4 If the carpet pile is filled with the same filler material throughout its depth, the mass of filling material specified by the manufacturer or supplier, appropriate to the size of the sample, shall be taken and divided into three equal portions. One third shall be uniformly spread onto the s
25、urfacing working it into the pile with a stiff brush. This operation shall be repeated twice more until all filler is applied. Take care to ensure that applying the filler material does not flatten or trap the pile of the surfacing. 3.5 If different types of filler material are incorporated into the
26、 pile, the manufacturers instructions for preparing the surface shall be followed as closely as possible. If specified, this may include consolidation of the infill by means of a conditioning roller (see below) or other means. The same conditioning procedure shall be used on all test specimens being
27、 prepared for any one product. Take care to ensure that applying the filler material does not flatten or trap the pile of the surfacing. 3.6 Following filling, filled test specimens shall be conditioned prior to test by passing a hand-pulled roller over the test specimen for 50 cycles (one cycle com
28、prises one outward and one return path of one roller). The barrel of the roller shall weigh (28,5 0,5) kg, be (118 5) mm in diameter and have plastic studs mounted as shown in Figure 1 and detailed in Table 1. The studs shall be as shown in Figure 2, be manufactured from plastic and have a Shore A h
29、ardness of 96 2. Note a manufacturing tolerance of 1 mm for the stud positions has been found satisfactory.
