In the construction of basketball courts, PP flooring (polypropylene sports flooring) is widely used because of its convenient installation, good elasticity and high cost performance. However, even the best flooring needs to rely on reasonable site selection and laying conditions to maximize its performance. The following are the key requirements for the site selection of basketball court tiles to help you create a safe, comfortable and professional sports space.
1. The flatness and stability of the foundation is the prerequisite
A stable foundation structure is the basis for ensuring the service life of the floor.
Basketball court tiles need to be laid on a solid and flat foundation, such as concrete or asphalt floors, to avoid potholes or uneven areas. This not only affects the tightness of the floor splicing, but also affects the rebound of the ball and the safety of personnel in motion.
It is recommended that the ground flatness error does not exceed 5mm/3 meters, and at the same time ensure that the ground is dry, free of oil, floating dust and other impurities, so that the floor can be installed smoothly.
2. The space size must meet the standard
Reasonable venue size ensures sports safety and functional integrity.
The size of a standard full-court basketball court is 28 meters long and 15 meters wide. In order to meet the needs of the event, the layout of the buffer zone, technical platform and audience area should also be considered, and a safety buffer zone of at least 2 meters should be reserved around the venue, especially for venues used for events or commercial operations.
For half-court training grounds or community stadiums, sufficient space for activities should be reserved according to the use needs to avoid the venue being too small and limiting the sports experience.
3. Lighting and ventilation improve the user experience
Good light and air circulation bring a more comfortable sports environment.
Whether it is indoor or outdoor venues, the location with sufficient light should be given priority when selecting the site. Natural lighting can reduce electricity costs and reduce eye fatigue.
At the same time, good ventilation conditions help keep the air fresh and prevent the floor from being damp and deformed for a long time. In indoor venues, sufficient ventilation or dehumidification systems must be equipped.
4. Durability and waterproofing are the key
In response to outdoor climate changes, sports tiles should have excellent weather resistance.
High-quality sports tiles themselves have the characteristics of UV resistance, anti-aging, and anti-deformation, and are suitable for outdoor use. However, the site selection still needs to avoid low-lying waterlogged areas or areas that are extremely prone to moisture, so as to avoid long-term moisture on the bottom of the floor and reduce the service life.
In areas with heavy rain, it is recommended to set a reasonable drainage slope for the foundation to ensure that rainwater is quickly discharged.
5. Anti-slip safety cannot be ignored
Safety protection during sports starts from the venue.
The site selection ground should avoid too smooth or rough materials. Sports tiles themselves have good anti-slip texture design, but if the foundation surface is not properly treated, it will also affect its performance.
**It is recommended to select a site in a dry area and avoid sites with water stains, oil stains or mud. **In addition, the floor should be cleaned and maintained regularly after laying to prevent dust accumulation from affecting the friction coefficient.
6. Environmental protection enhances the value of the project
The concept of green environmental protection has become an important direction for modern sports construction.
High-quality basketball court tiles are made of environmentally friendly and renewable materials, which are non-toxic and odorless, safe and healthy, and meet international environmental standards. When selecting a site, you should also try to avoid ecologically sensitive areas or damage to the natural environment, and enhance the social responsibility and sustainable development image of the project as a whole.
