Communities need accessible, versatile surfaces for play and relaxation for people of all ages and abilities. Modern landscape synthetic turf options are specifically formulated for public recreation spaces frequented by adults, children, and pets. This course reviews the health benefits of being outdoors, the history and fabrication of synthetic turf, the design considerations for various recreation applications, and synthetic turf’s performance and sustainability characteristics.
Learning Objectives
- Summarize how individuals benefit physically and mentally from time spent outdoors and how community wellness is affected by the implementation of green spaces.
- Discuss the design considerations for playground, park and landscape, pet and rooftop applications and the synthetic turf systems specifically designed to meet the safety and performance requirements of each application.
- Specify synthetic turf to address concerns associated with water consumption, stormwater runoff, and drainage, constant use, pesticide and fertilizer use, and maintenance demands and impacts.
- Employ the functional (impact attenuation and ADA compliance) and performance (heat reflection, anti-static, anti-microbial) properties of synthetic turf to design durable, code-compliant, safe, aesthetically appealing, accessible, and sustainable spaces for outdoor activity and relaxastion.
Creating Beautiful, Sustainable Synthetic Grass Solutions
Earns (1) ONE CEU CREDIT in the HSW category. (Health, Safety, and Wellness).
Synthetic or artificial grass bears virtually no resemblance to its early version produced over fifty years ago. The current product is much more aesthetically pleasing, safer, softer, and durable, made with environmentally friendly materials, highly customizable to suit many indoor and outdoor uses. This course details the many sustainable attributes of this material; its benefits, construction, and certifications; and numerous sample installations.
Professionals in the construction, architectural, interior design, and engineering industries that participate in this continuing education course will earn one hour of Learning Unit (LU) / Health, Safety, and Welfare (HSW) credit. At the end of the session, participants will be able to:
- Create beautiful sustainable solutions, including erosion control and expanded rooftop living spaces, using artificial grass.
- Use artificial grass to address water consumption, runoff, drainage, increased foot traffic, and greenspace requirements.
- Employ artificial grass to eliminate pesticide use and reduce lawn maintenance demands and impacts.
- Integrate aesthetically pleasing, healthy, indoor and outdoor gathering and activity spaces in commercial, office, and public venue projects using artificial grass.
- Specify safe artificial grass installations that resist burning and melting and increase protection from fire.
