WK89102 - New Specification for Impact Attenuation of Ski Area Padding

Work Item

ASTM WK89102

New Specification for Impact Attenuation of Ski Area Padding

1. Scope

This specification covers the standard testing procedures and minimum requirements for impact attenuation of ski area padding systems, specifically the peak impact acceleration produced under prescribed impact conditions.

Keywords

Impact Testing; Energy Attenuation; Ski Area Padding Systems; Ski; Padding

Rationale

The dynamic data obtained with the procedures given in this specification measure the impact attenuation properties of the ski area padding system tested. It does not quantify the intrinsic material properties of the test specimens.
