Surfaces for sports areas - Synthetic turf and needle-punched surfaces primarily designed for outdoor use - Part 4: Specification for shockpads used with synthetic turf, needle-punch and textile sports surfaces

This document specifies minimum performance and durability requirements for shockpads used within synthetic turf and textile sports surfacing systems.
The document also specifies appropriate performance tolerance for production and on-site quality control procedures.
This document does not cover structural properties of shockpads. Where appropriate, compliance with other European or national standards and guidelines for these aspects should be followed.
NOTE 1 The sports performance characteristics of a sports surfacing system are provided by the combined characteristics of the playing surface, any infill within the playing surface and the shockpad. The selection of the correct combination of each is complex and the responsibility of the sports surface system designer. It is important to take this into account when considering the performance of a shockpad. A shockpad alone is not be expected to satisfy the performance requirements of the complete sports surfacing system as specified in EN 15330-1, E, etc.
NOTE 2 Some forms of innovative shockpad are designed to provide additional functions beyond aiding the provision of the required sports performance properties. Some of these additional functions can, by design, mean that full compliance with all requirements of this document is not appropriate.
NOTE 3 This document only refers to the shockpad. It makes no recommendations on sub-base constructions or the different synthetic turf for needle-punch textile sports surface designs.
NOTE 4 Annex E (informative) can be used in those countries where national guidance or regulations are not available. If such guidance or regulations are available, they supersede Annex E.

Sportböden - Überwiegend für den Außenbereich hergestellte Kunststoffrasenflächen und Nadelfilze - Teil 4: Festlegungen für Elastikschichten, die in Kunststoffrasenflächen, Nadelfilzen und textilen Sportbelägen eingesetzt werden

Dieses Dokument legt Mindestanforderungen an die Leistung und Dauerhaftigkeit für Elastikschichten, die innerhalb von Kunststoffrasenflächen und textilen Sportbelägen verwendet werden, fest.
Das Dokument legt auch eine angemessene Ansprechtoleranz für Verfahren zur Qualitätslenkung bei der Produktion und vor Ort fest.
Dieses Dokument behandelt nicht die strukturellen Eigenschaften von Elastikschichten. Gegebenenfalls sollten andere europäische oder nationale Normen und Leitfäden für diese Aspekte befolgt werden.
ANMERKUNG 1   Die sportlichen Leistungseigenschaften eines Sportbodens ergeben sich aus den kombinierten Eigenschaften der Spielfläche, aller Füllungen innerhalb der Spielfläche und der Elastikschicht. Die Auswahl der jeweiligen richtigen Kombination ist komplex und liegt in der Verantwortung des Konstrukteurs des Sportbodens. Hinsichtlich der Leistung einer Elastikschicht ist es wichtig, das zu berücksichtigen. Es ist nicht zu erwarten, dass eine Elastikschicht allein die Leistungsanforderungen des gesamten Sportbodens nach EN 15330 1 usw. erfüllt.
ANMERKUNG 2   Einige Arten innovativer Elastikschichten sind dafür ausgelegt, zusätzliche Funktionen zu bieten, die über die Unterstützung der Bereitstellung der benötigten sportlichen Leistungseigenschaften hinausgehen. Für einige dieser zusätzlichen Funktionen kann dies aufgrund der Ausführung bedeuten, dass eine vollständige Übereinstimmung mit allen Anforderungen dieses Dokuments nicht gegeben ist.
ANMERKUNG 3   Dieses Dokument bezieht sich nur auf die Elastikschicht. Es gibt keine Empfehlungen zu Unterbaukonstruktionen oder zu den verschiedenen Kunstrasen , Nadelfilz  und textilen Sportbelägen.
ANMERKUNG 4   Anhang E (informativ) kann in den Ländern angewendet werden, in denen keine nationalen Leitlinien oder Vorschriften zur Verfügung stehen. Wenn derartige Leitlinien oder Vorschriften zur Verfügung stehen, ersetzen sie Anhang E.

Sols sportifs - Surfaces en gazon synthétique et surfaces en textile aiguilleté principalement destinées à l'usage en extérieur - Partie 4 : Spécifications relatives aux couches de souplesse utilisées avec les sols sportifs en gazon synthétique, en textile et en textile aiguilleté

Le présent document spécifie les exigences minimales de performance et de durabilité applicables aux couches de souplesse utilisés sur les systèmes sols sportifs en gazon synthétique et en textile.
Le présent document spécifie également la tolérance de performance appropriée pour la production et les procédures de contrôle qualité sur site.
Le présent document ne traite pas des propriétés structurelles des couches de souplesse. Il convient, le cas échéant, de se conformer aux autres lignes directrices et Normes européennes et nationales relatives à ces aspects.
NOTE 1 Les caractéristiques de performance sportive d'un système sol sportif sont fournies par les caractéristiques combinées de la surface de jeu, de tout remplissage à l'intérieur de la surface de jeu et de la couche de souplesse. Choisir la bonne combinaison de chacun de ces éléments est une tâche complexe qui incombe au concepteur de système sol sportif. Il est important d'en tenir compte lors de l'appréciation des performances d'une couche de souplesse. À elle seule, une couche de souplesse n'est pas tenue de satisfaire aux exigences de performance du système sol sportif complet tel que spécifié dans l'EN 15330 1, E, etc.
NOTE 2 Certaines formes de couches de souplesse innovantes sont conçues pour assurer des fonctions supplémentaires en plus de faciliter l'obtention des propriétés de performance sportive requises. Pour certaines de ces fonctions supplémentaires, de par leur conception, une conformité totale à l'ensemble des exigences du présent document peut ne pas se révéler appropriée.
NOTE 3 Le présent document se rapporte uniquement à la couche de souplesse. Il ne formule aucune recommandation au sujet des constructions des couches de fondation ou des différents gazons synthétiques pour les conceptions de sols sportifs en textile aiguilleté.
NOTE 4 L'Annexe E (informative) peut être utilisée dans les pays où il n'existe aucune recommandation ou réglementation nationale. Si ces recommandations ou réglementations existent, elles remplacent l'Annexe E.

Podloge za športne dejavnosti - Umetne travnate podloge in iglane podloge, predvsem za zunanjo uporabo - 4. del: Specifikacija oblog za blaženje udarcev pri umetnih travnatih, iglanih ter tekstilnih podlogah

Ta evropski standard določa minimalne zahteve glede učinkovitosti in trajnosti blažilnikov in elastičnih plasti, ki se uporabljajo pri športnih podlogah iz umetne trave ali tekstila ali iglanih podlogah. Velja za vse blažilnike, ki se uporabljajo kot elastična sestavina v sistemu priprave športnih površin.  
Standard opisuje, kako naj se meri učinkovitost blažilnikov ali elastične plasti, rezultati pa se razvrstijo v enotno obliko, da se razvijalcem sistemov priprave športnih površin, ki želijo uporabljati blažilnike ali elastične plasti, omogoči izbira najprimernejšega blažilnika ali elastične plasti za predvideno športno površino.  
Prav tako podrobno določa največje možne spremembe v delovanju blažilnika ali elastične plasti pri umetnem staranju, če naj bi zagotavljala zadovoljivo dolgoročno delovanje, ko je vgrajena v sistem priprave športnih površin.  Standard določa tudi ustrezno odstopanje v delovanju za proizvodnjo in postopke nadzora kakovosti na mestu samem.
Opomba 1: Lastnosti športne učinkovitosti športnih podlog iz umetne trave ali tekstila ali iglanih podlog so odvisne od kombinacije lastnosti igralne podloge, morebitnega polnila znotraj igralne podloge in blažilnikov. Izbira pravilnih permutacij vsake od njih je zapletena in zanjo je odgovoren oblikovalec športne podloge. Ta dejstva je pomembno upoštevati pri obravnavi učinkovitosti blažilnika; od samega blažilnika ne smemo pričakovati, da bo izpolnjeval zahteve glede učinkovitosti celotne igralne podloge, kot je določeno v standardih EN 15330-1 in EN 15330-2.
Opomba 2: Ta standard se nanaša samo na blažilnik ali elastično plast. Ne vsebuje priporočil glede konstrukcij podosnove ali različnih zasnov podlog iz umetne trave, tekstila ali iglanih podlog.  
Opomba 3: Nekatere vrste blažilnikov so namenjene tudi zagotavljanju strukturnih lastnosti osnovi športnega objekta.  Teh vidikov delovanja blažilnikov ta evropski standard ne upošteva.  Za te vidike je po potrebi treba upoštevati nacionalne standarde in smernice.
