Surfaces for sports areas - Determination of water infiltrattion rate
This European Standard specifies three methods of test for the determination of water infiltration rate. Method A is suitable for synthetic, textile, synthetic turf and bound mineral sports surfaces. Method B is suitable for natural turf and Method C is suitable for unbound mineral sports surfaces. Note: Method C for unbound mineral surfaces: laboratory tests are considered to give a more precise indication of how a surface will perform.
Sportböden - Bestimmung der Wasserinfiltrationsmenge
Diese Europäische Norm legt drei Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Wasserinfiltrationsmenge (des Wasserschluckwertes) fest. Verfahren A eignet sich für Sportböden mit Flächen aus Kunststoff, textilen Belägen, Kunststoffrasen und gebundenden mineralischen Materialien, Verfahren B ist auf Sportböden mit Flächen aus Naturrasen und Verfahren C auf Sportböden mit Flächen aus ungebundenen mineralischen Materialien anwendbar.
ANMERKUNG In einem Laboratorium durchgeführte Prüfungen an Flächen aus ungebundenen mineralischen Materialien ergeben eine präzisere Aussage darüber, wie sich eine derartige Fläche verhalten wird.
Sols sportifs - Détermination de la vitesse d'infiltration de l'eau
La présente Norme Européenne fixe trois méthodes d'essai visant à déterminer la vitesse d'infiltration de l'eau. La méthode A s'applique aux sols sportifs synthétiques en textiles, en gazon synthétique et en matériaux minéraux liés, la méthode B est applicable au gazon naturel et la méthode C est appropriée aux sols sportifs en matériaux minéraux non liés.
NOTE En ce qui concerne les sols en matériaux minéraux non liés, on considère que les essais en laboratoire donnent une indication plus précise du comportement du sol.

A single cylinder can be used if the test piece is fully sealed to prevent lateral flow of water.The rate of entry into the sports surface from the inner cylinder is measured.4 Apparatus4.1Infiltrometer, with dimensions specified in 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3, consisting of one or two metal cylinders(see Figure 1) capable of being sealed onto, or hammered perpendicularly into, the sports surface, as appropriate(see Figure 2).4.1.1 Large cylinder, double-ring infiltrometer, for tests on surfaces with a rate of water infiltration less than500 mm/h, consisting of an inner cylinder of inner diameter (300 ± 5) mm forming the measurement area and anouter cylinder of inner diameter (500 ± 25) mm forming the buffer area to prevent the lateral flow of water from theinner cylinder.NOTE
A wide tolerance on the cylinder diameter is permitted to allow the cylinders to be stacked for ease of transport.4.1.2 Small cylinder, double-ring infiltrometer, for tests on surfaces with a rate of water infiltration greater than500 mm/h and where the available water supply is limited, consisting of an inner cylinder of inner diameter(150 ± 5) mm and an outer cylinder of diameter (300 ± 25) mm.4.1.3 Single ring infiltrometer, in cases where the test piece can be fully sealed to prevent lateral flow of water,e.g. when measuring the rate of water infiltration in the laboratory, consisting of a single cylinder of dimensionsconforming to the inner cylinder dimensions of 4.1.1 or 4.1.2.
