1.3 DIFIlTlOS
For the purposes of this Standard, the definitions below apply.
1.3.1 Airbag
A device containing air for the purpose of impact attenuation.
1.3.2 Base bag
An impact-attenuating device containing air that adds a fail-safe system on the floor of a
dismount pit and/or airbag.
1.3.3 Base foam
An impact-attenuating layer that adds a fail-safe system on the floor of a dismount pit andlor air bag.
1.3.4 Bed
A flexible surface that the patron contacts in the course of bouncing on a trampoline. Also known as a mat.
1.3.5 Competent person
A person who has acquired through training, qualifications or experience, or a combination of these, the knowledge and skills enabling that person to perform a specified task.
1.3.6 Critical fall height
The impact height where an impact attenuating system has a HI(’ less than 1000, a [tIC duration greater than 5 ms, and a less than 200g.
1.3.7 Cyclic loading
The application of repeated or fluctuating stresses, strains, or stress intensities to locations on structural components.
1.3.8 Dismount pit
A contained space comprising an impact attenuating system for safe landing from height.
1.3.9 Dismount pit net
An under slung flexible knitted/woven device to hold the foam cubes off the ground and provide fluffing. May be spring or tied solid. Method to keep foam cubes from compressing in base of dismount pit especially corners.
1.3.10 Foam cube
Polyhedron shaped foam objects used to till a dismount pit to absorb impact.
1.3.11 Free space
Space in, on. beneath or around the trampoline.
1.3.12
The maximum acceleration experienced during impact. Expressed as a muiripie 01 acceleration into gravity at the earth’s surface at sea level.
1.3.13 Harness
A suspended device intended to provide support and control for the patron and coach/instructor. Typically a fixed attachment used on a non-stationary piece of equipmentlactivity to assist a coach/instructor during the training of athletes in advanced ma U ocuvrcs.
1.3.14 head injurs criteria (HIC’)
A measure of impact severity that considers the duration over which the most critical section of the acceleration pulse persists as well as the peak level of that acceleration.
1.3.15 Hl( duration
The time interval over which the 14W is calculated, i.e. (ip — t).
NOTE: Where ; and t are intermediate values of between and 1d attaining the rnairnum IIIC value.
1.3.16 High performance trampoline
A gymnastic grade trampoline with a bed constructed of string or similar material that enhances performance.
1.3.17 High performance siall
Assorted height structures located adjacent to high performance trampolines so that patrons may enhance their level of activity by utilizing the wall as a landing or rebound space integrated into their activity. Typical activities include jumping to or on the wall, around the corner of two walls and wall running, and may include bodily manoeuvres such as flips and twists.
1.3.18 Impact area
The surface that can be hit by a patron falling.
1.3.19 Impact attenuation system
Pad, floor mat, carpet and foam composite flooring system. foam filled bag. or another system that transforms the kinetic energy from falls into controlled acceleration/time behaviour during impact.
1.3.20 Impact attenuation test
A series of at least our (in situ) or ten (laboratory-base) impact measurements carried out from a specified impact height.AS 5159.1 pdf download.
