Surfaces for sports areas - Determination of thickness of synthetic sports surfaces EN 1969:2000

Publication date:   Dec 22, 2003

Scope

This European Standard specifies two methods for the determination of the thickness of synthetic surfaces for sports areas, suitable for use in the laboratory and 'in situ'. Method A, a destructive test method, is intended for use - where the thickness needs to be measured to an accuracy of +/-0,1mm;- when the thickness of different layers is to be determined. Method B, a non-destructive test method,is intended for use as a routine check on thickness, e.g.for control purposes or when surveying a large area of synthetic surfacing. It gives measurements to an accuracy between +/-0,5 and +/-1,5mm, depending upon the textur
