Site Covered4.1 A p

23、lay zone shall be protected in accordance with thisspecification in locations that are vulnerable to vehiculartraffic, from activity and game conflicting uses, and for thecontrol of entering or exiting the play zone or area. Protectionfrom vehicular intrusion shall be placed as specified in Sections

24、6 and 7. Barriers shall protect the perimeters of the play areathat are adjacent to the direction of traffic, and only apply tothose perimeters that are parallel and perpendicular to thedirection of traffic. Playground enclosures, such as fences,walls, or buildings, shall be on all sides of the play

25、 zone.5. Significance and Use5.1 This specification sets forth minimum standard require-ments for use in local codes and ordinances relating to public,multi-family, residential, and commercial outdoor play areas orzones and their environments.5.2 This specification does not have the effect of law, n

26、or isit intended to supersede local codes and ordinances of a morerestrictive nature.5.3 Playgrounds that intentionally incorporate water into theplay area are exempt from this specification.6. Methods of Protection6.1 Discrete and Continuous BarriersThese methods ofprotection shall be determined by

27、 the vulnerable play area orplay zone requirement for protection for vehicle intrusion andadjacent traffic circumstances. If a fence itself complies withthe impact tests described in 7.1, then a barrier is not required.6.1.1 Continuous BarrierIf a vulnerable play area has noexterior exit gate on the

28、 traffic side of the play zone, then theplay area shall be protected with a continuous barrier on thetraffic side as specified in the following sections. If pedestrianaccess through this continuous barrier is necessary, it shallmeet applicable sections. Continuous barrier methods include,but are not

29、 limited to, guardrails, concrete or brick reinforcedwalls, and concrete Jersey barriers.6.1.2 Discrete BarrierIf a vulnerable play area has an exitgate on the traffic side of the play zone, then pedestrian accessthrough a barrier is necessary and a discrete barrier should beprovided on the traffic

30、side as specified in the followingsections. Discrete barrier methods include, but are not limitedto, the following: structural bollards, trees, posts, and othervertical structures.6.1.3 FencesAll vulnerable play areas shall have fenceswith gates as described in 7.6. This method of protection mayincl

31、ude chain link and other materials of a minimum height of4 ft (1.22 m) above grade.6.1.4 BuildingWhere a building may abut or is adjacent toa play area or play zone, it may be used as part of thecontainment. If the building wall contains a door for ingressand egress into the play area, it shall comp

32、ly with subsequentsections. If the building wall contains windows for viewing, itshall contain glazing that is unbreakable and shatter-proof.6.2 BuildingsThe fence shall completely surround theplay zone or area environment except where a building ordwelling or portion thereof is utilized as part of

33、the playenvironment enclosure. If the exterior wall or walls of thatportion of the building contains doors, or other openings, itshall comply with the following provisions.6.2.1 DoorsDoors in the wall of a building or dwellingthat allow direct access through the wall to the play environ-ment shall b

34、e provided with the following:6.2.1.1 An alarm capable of detecting unauthorized entry orexit through the gate or opening into or from the playenvironment area when not in use and which, when activated,emits a sound of sufficient volume to be heard in the buildingor dwelling as a means of outdoor ar

35、ea security when deemednecessary. The audible warning shall commence not more than7 s after the door, or its screen, if present, or both are openedand shall sound continuously for a minimum of 30 s. The alarmshall have a minimum sound pressure rating of 85 dB at 10 ft(3.4 m) and the sounds of the al

36、arm shall be distinctive fromother sounds such as auto alarms, smoke alarms, telephones,and door bells. The alarm shall automatically reset after 2 minunder all conditions.7. Requirements7.1 Continuous Barrier:7.1.1 Strength and Deflection LimitsThe barrier used shallbe able to withstand a one-time

(2.54 mm) after asingle load when tested in accordance with the U.S. Depart-ment of Transportation specifications.7.1.2 MaintenanceIf any permanent deformation or dam

38、-age is done to a continuous barrier, the play area facility shallbe closed until a new barrier has been installed.7.1.3 InspectionA visual check shall be done by theowner or operator on a regular basis to note damage. A signshould be posted with the name and owner to be notified ifdamage occurs.7.1

39、.4 DistanceMinimum unobstructed distance betweenthe continuous barrier and the play area perimeter fenceprotection shall be no less than 2 ft (0.61 m).7.1.5 The continuous barrier shall be placed edge to edgeunless passage through is required, which shall be no morethan 48 in.7.2 Discrete Barriers:7

40、.2.1 Strength and Deflection LimitsThe barrier systemused shall meet the requirements of 7.1.1.7.2.2 Discrete barriers shall be placed a maximum of 42 in.(1.07 m) apart from each other (edge to edge).7.2.3 MaintenanceMaintenance shall comply with 7.1.2.7.2.4 DistanceThe distance from discrete barrie

42、2 4 ft for angled parking.7.3.1.3 5 ft where there is perpendicular parking.7.4 Fences:7.4.1 Fence HeightThe top of the fence shall be aminimum of 4 ft (1.22 m) above grade measured on the side ofthe fence that faces away from the play environment.7.4.2 VisibilityThe fence shall be designed and con-

43、structed so that it allows for a visibility to conform to the levelof surveillance necessary from a designated supervising areaoutside or inside the play environment area to inside the playenvironment.7.4.3 Ground ClearanceThe maximum vertical clearancebetween grade and the bottom of the fence shall

44、 be no morethan 4 in. measured on both sides of the fence around the playenvironment and of a minimal distance to prevent toys fromrolling under.7.4.4 Solid barriers that do not have openings, such asmasonry or stone walls, shall not contain indentations orprotrusions except for normal construction

45、tolerances andtooled masonry joints when used as both barriers and fences.Such indentations shall not be deeper than 0.375 in. (9.5 mm).7.5 Fence Types:7.5.1 Horizontal and Vertical DesignWhere the fence iscomposed of horizontal and vertical members, and if thedistance between the tops of the horizo

(1.143 mm), the horizontal members shall belocated on the side opposite the play environment to preventegress over it and the spacing between the vertical membersshall not exceed 134 in. (44.4 mm). If the distance between thetops of the horizontal members is 45 in. (1

47、.143 mm) or more,the spacing between the vertical members shall not exceed 4 in.(102 mm). Where there are decorative cutouts, the spacingwithin the cutouts shall not exceed 134 in. (44.4 mm).7.5.2 Chain Link MeshMesh opening for fences shall be anominal 114 in. (3.2 mm) measured between the parallel

48、 sidesof the mesh, and a maximum of 134 in. (44.4 mm) measuredhorizontally between the corners of the installed mesh, unlessthe fence is provided with privacy slats fastened at the top orthe bottom, in which case no opening in the mesh shall exceed134 in.

(31.75 mm)measured between the parallel sides of the mesh, the resultcould be a dimension exceeding the specified maximum of 134in. (44.4 mm) measured horizontally between the corners of theinstalled mesh. The degree of tension applied to the fabricduring installation could also affect this horizontal dimension.In all cases, the horizontal opening between the corners of thefabric mesh after tensioning sha
