Gmax testing to Artificial and natural football fields in Escondido, California

All natural and artificial fields should be testing to ASTM standard F1936 to ensure they are fit for use.

Surface Performance accredited engineers test to ASTM F355 in Escondido, California using a specialist A-Missile – A 20lb, cylindrical weight dropped from 24inches. The integrated accelerometer measures the g-forces exerted on the missile. This shows the impact attenuation/shock absorption of the surface and, in turn, shows the impact a player is exposed to when colliding with the surface.
