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.
However, it should be recognised that all injuries due to falls cannot be prevented, no matter what
surfacing material is used.
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. However, because
children may deliberately jump from a moving swing, the shock absorbing material should extend
in the front and rear of a swing a minimum distance of twice the height of the pivot point measured
from a point directly beneath the pivot on the supporting structure.
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.
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.
