Safety of amusement rides and amusement devices - Part 1: Design and manufacture

This document specifies the minimum requirements necessary to ensure the safe design, calculation, manufacture, and installation of mobile, temporary or permanently installed machinery and structures which are intended for use by persons as a leisure activity, e.g. roundabouts, swings, boats, ferris wheels, roller coasters, chutes, booths, side shows, and structures for artistic aerial displays. The above items are hereafter called amusement devices, which are intended to be installed both repeatedly without degradation or loss of integrity, and temporarily or permanently in fairgrounds and amusement parks or any other locations. Grandstands, construction site installations, scaffolding, removable agricultural structures, simple coin operated children's amusement devices, carrying up to three children, and recreational devices like waterslides or summer toboggan runs, playground equipment, rope courses, climbing wall, inflatable, trampolines, swimming pool equipment (this list is not exhaustive) are not covered by this document.
For all the equipment not covered by the requirements of EN 13814 1, the relevant standards apply.
Nevertheless this document can be used in the design of any similar structural or passenger carrying amusement device not explicitly mentioned herein.
In terms of workers’ health and safety, national regulations apply.
This document is applicable to manufacturing and major modification of amusement devices and rides for designs after the effective date of publication.

Sicherheit von Fahrgeschäften und Vergnügungseinrichtungen - Teil 1: Konstruktion, Bemessung und Herstellung

Sécurité des manèges et des dispositifs de divertissement - Partie 1 : Conception et fabrication

Le présent document spécifie les exigences minimales nécessaires pour garantir la conception, les calculs, la fabrication et l’installation en toute sécurité de machines et structures mobiles, temporaires ou installées de manière permanente qui sont destinées à être utilisées par des personnes comme activités de loisirs, par exemple les manèges circulaires, les balançoires, les embarcations, les grandes roues, les montagnes russes, les toboggans, les baraques, les attractions en baraque et les structures pour démonstrations aériennes artistiques. Les dispositifs énumérés ci-dessus, appelés ci-après « dispositifs de divertissement », sont destinés à être installés de manière répétitive sans dégradation ni perte d’intégrité, que ce soit temporairement ou définitivement, dans des fêtes foraines, des parcs d’attraction ou d’autres emplacements. Les tribunes, les installations des chantiers de construction, les échafaudages et les structures agricoles amovibles, les dispositifs de divertissement pour enfants actionnés par un simple jeton ne transportant pas plus de trois enfants, ainsi que les dispositifs de divertissement comme les toboggans aquatiques ou les pistes de luge d’été, les équipements pour aires de jeux, les parcours accrobranches, les murs d’escalade, les équipements gonflables, les trampolines, les équipements de piscine (cette liste n’est pas exhaustive) ne sont pas couverts par le présent document.
Pour tous les équipements non couverts par les exigences de l’EN 13814 1, les normes pertinentes s’appliquent.
Néanmoins, le présent document peut être utilisé pour la conception de tout dispositif de divertissement structural ou de transport de passagers similaire non mentionné explicitement dans le présent document.
En matière de santé et de sécurité des ouvriers, les réglementations nationales s’appliquent.
Le présent document s’applique à la fabrication et à la modification majeure de manèges et dispositifs de divertissement pour des conceptions après la date effective de publication.
