DIN 18032-2 Gymnasiums - Gymnastics - Game and Multipurpose Halls - Part 2: Testing of Floors for Sports Activities

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of DIN 18032-2 testing. This standard describes the requirements and tests of certain sports-functional, protective-functional and technical properties of sports floors in gymnastics, game and multi-purpose halls.

It covers the properties of the sports floor that helps to relax the musculoskeletal system of the athlete during running, ball games and gymnastics and to reduce the risk of injury in the event of a fall.

Requirements can only be taken into account by mutual assessment and a brief assessment of the former sport-functional, protective-functional and constructive aspects. Floor load limits should be considered in the construction of equipment (eg gymnastics and sports equipment, transportation equipment, cleaning equipment) and facilities (eg telescopic stands) used in the gym.

With its hard surface, it meets the requirements for stability, sliding behavior, residual indentation depth and far rolling loads. As a rule, there is also no reason to fear that the athlete will die prematurely. Suitable for unproven cycling and skating sports. Conversely, the limitations in the protective function due to the hard surface and the slow response of the sports ground, as well as the relatively large divergence groove, have to be considered possible deterioration in neighboring athletes.
