Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of ISO document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Introduction

This document summarizes information about different regional and national standards on playground safety in order to provide a reference point for different types of entrapments and probes/gauges.

Some standards apply to entrapment tests universally, regardless of the intended user age group, on the basis that it is very difficult to control users when products are installed in a free access environment. Other standards apply to specific entrapment probe tests related to specific intended user age groups. For cases where user age references are provided in the standard, see Annex A to Annex I.

1 Scope

This document compiles a collection of different probes/gauges for assessing common playground equipment safety performance to eliminate known safety hazards such as entrapment and entanglement hazards on playground, playspaces, and associated equipment used in different countries/regions around the world. It also explains some historical content of origins, the purpose and some rationales for the dimensions and shape of each of those probes.

These test probes and gauges, their dimensions and related historic rationale for their existence are applicable to playground equipment manufacturers, designers, installers, assemblers, owners, operators and inspectors alike and are necessary tools to the reduction of serious, life-threatening and debilitating injuries to the public playground intended users.
