Abstract/Contents: | Discusses the use of synthetic infill surfaces. Presents a study to determine on the effects of wear using simulate foot traffic, grooming traction, surface hardness, abrasion and temperature." Reports that "there was very little difference in mean traction, surface hardness or rebound resiliency values between the synthetic infill surfaces and natural grass fields." Concludes that "how the synthetic infill surfaces will react over time remains to be seen." |
