The US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) estimates that about 100 000 playground equipment-related injuries resulting from falls to the ground
surface are treated annually in US hospital emergency rooms. Injuries involving this hazard pattern tend to be among the most serious of all playground injuries,
and have the potential to be fatal, particularly when the injury is to the head. The surface under and around playground equipment can be a major factor in
determining the injury-causing potential of a fall. It is self-evident that a fall on to a shock-absorbing surface is less likely to cause a serious injury than a fall onto
a hard surface. Playground equipment should never be placed on hard surfaces, such as concrete or asphalt, and while grass may appear to be acceptable, it
may quickly turn to hard-packed earth in areas of high traffic. Shredded bark mulch, wood chips, tine sand or the gravel are considered to be acceptable shock
absorbing surfaces when installed and maintained at a sufficient depth under and around playground equipment.
Table B.1 lists the maximum height from which a child would not be expected to sustain a life-threatening head injury in a fall on to four different loose-fill
surfacing materials if they are Installed and maintained at depths of 150 mm, 225 mm and 300 mm.

Table B.1: Fall height in millimetres from which a life-threatening head injury would not be expected

Type of Material

owever, it should be recognised that all injuries due to falls cannot be prevented, no matter what surfacing material is used.

H
It is recommended that a shock absorbing material extend a minimum of 1 800 mm in all directions from the perimeter of stationary equipment such as climbing
frames and slides.
This information is intended to assist in comparing the relative shock-absorbing properties of various materials. No particular material is recommended over
another. However, each material is only effective when properly maintained. Materials should be checked periodically and replenished to maintain correct depth
as determined necessary for the equipment in question. The choice of a material depends on the type and height of the playground equipment, the availability
of the material in a particular area, and its cost.
