Start with what happens above the turf.
Play-area planning begins with the equipment, activities and age groups. A green surface for open-ended play is a different brief from surfacing under elevated equipment. Identify any specified fall heights, required testing and accessibility requirements before choosing turf.
Equipment layouts and surface documentation.
- Provide equipment layouts and any surfacing specifications.
- Discuss the base, impact-attenuating layers and edge transitions.
- Ask for documentation for the complete system where required.
Review the whole play assembly.
Turf alone should not be treated as a certified safety surface. Product selection, installation and inspection need to reflect the project requirements. Include the party responsible for reviewing compliance and accepting the finished surface.
Can I select play turf by appearance alone?
Appearance is only one consideration. The activities and equipment may require a tested complete system with appropriate documentation and qualified review.
