Zoom Presentation
Athletic flooring surface choices are as different as the uses required by them. An incorrect specification (or worse, an unclear specification!) can cause headaches for architects, designers, and owners long past the initial install. Take the mystery out of sports flooring choices and join us to learn what standards should be used in evaluating surfaces, the advantages and disadvantages of all surfaces, today’s trends in sports flooring, and matching the needs of a user to the properties of a surface.
Learning Objectives:
Introduction and definition of sports flooring
- Will explain different types of sports flooring materials along with their characteristics.
- Will review governing standards on sports flooring and considerations
- To be able to evaluate and choose the right sports flooring based on substrate, health and environmental conditions
