19、This document supersedes EN 14877:2006. Compared with EN 14877:2006, the text has been clarified and editorial errors have been corrected. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard:
20、 Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain,

BS EN 14877:2013EN 14877:2013 (E)BS EN 14877:2013EN 14877:2013 (E) 4 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements for synthetic (polymeric) surfaces (installed in situ and prefabricated) for outdoor sports facilities. It covers synthet
22、ic surfaces for the following applications: athletics, track and field; tennis; multi-sports. The European Standard has two parts. The first describes the requirements for the testing of products in the laboratory to ensure they are capable of providing the required levels of sports performance and
23、player/surface interaction required for their intended use and that they are manufactured from materials of acceptable quality. The second section describes the requirements for installed surfaces to ensure that the sports performance and player/surface interaction properties are suitable for the in
24、tended use. When independent third party testing of synthetic sports surfaces is required to assess compliance with this standard, it is recommended the laboratory is certified to EN ISO/IEC 17025 for the relevant test methods specified in this standard. NOTE 1 Examples of types of surface and their
25、 fields of application are given in Annex A. NOTE 2 Multi-sports will be defined by appropriate national provisions. NOTE 3 Minimum requirements for the thickness of the synthetic sports surface are specified which means that this European Standard is not applicable to certain coatings used for spor
26、ts surfaces. This European Standard is not designed to cover the performance requirements of top-level athletics facilities; these should follow the requirements of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF). NOTE 4 This European Standard does not include requirements for syntheti
27、c turf surfaces; these are specified in EN 153301. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its application.

35、e 1. 4.2 Synthetic surfaces intended for tennis facilities shall satisfy the requirements of Table 2. 4.3 Synthetic surfaces intended for multi-sports facilities shall satisfy the requirements of Table 3. If multi-sports areas are to include athletics activities involving the use of athletics runnin
36、g spikes, the synthetic surfacing shall also satisfy the requirements of Table 1, 1.2.5 Spike Resistance. 4.4 Wet test specimens shall be prepared using the procedure detailed in Annex B. 4.5 Shock Absorption and Vertical Deformation measurements shall be made in three positions each at least 100 mm
37、 apart and the mean result calculated. 4.6 Slip Resistance shall be measured in at least two directions at 90 to each other.
