Testing Coordination
Qualified ASTM Impact-Testing Coordination
Installed surface performance testing coordinated with qualified testing providers when required — without pretending to be a laboratory.
Qualified ASTM Impact-Testing Coordination
Installed surface performance testing can be coordinated with qualified testing providers when required by the owner, manufacturer, project specifications, inspection findings or maintenance program. The resulting report becomes part of the Playground Surface Passport.
CPSI (Certified Playground Safety Inspector) competency inside the operation strengthens condition reporting — but it does not turn a maintenance report into an ASTM impact test.
- Identify when qualified testing is warranted
- Coordinate with an independent qualified testing provider
- File the resulting report in the Playground Surface Passport
- CPSI-informed condition reporting that supports — but does not replace — testing
- Clear separation between maintenance documentation and certified scopes
How SynTurf Care Approaches This
A documented, surface-aware process — not a one-size-fits-all cleaning routine.
01
Identify the need
SynTurf identifies when qualified testing is warranted by owner request, manufacturer guidance, specs, inspection findings or the maintenance program.
02
Coordinate the provider
Engage an independent qualified testing provider to conduct ASTM F3313 field testing.
03
File the report
The testing report is filed in the Playground Surface Passport alongside the surface record.
04
Plan next steps
Use the results to inform maintenance, repair and capital planning decisions.
What This Service Is Designed to Deliver
Every playground service is built around credible, defensible outcomes — maintenance and documentation first, with qualified inspection and impact-testing coordination kept as separate scopes.
- We coordinate testing — we do not perform ASTM F1292 or F3313 testing in-house.
- Certified playground inspections, accessibility determinations and ASTM impact testing are separate scopes.
- CPSI competency strengthens reporting — it does not turn a maintenance report into an impact test.
- ASTM F3313-26 evaluates installed field performance; it does not establish the critical height of an installed system.
Qualified ASTM Impact-Testing Coordination — Questions
Credible answers about this playground surface service, the maintenance/documentation scope, and what stays a separate qualified scope.
No. We coordinate installed surface performance testing with qualified testing providers when required. We do not perform ASTM F1292 or F3313 testing in-house. Certified playground inspections, accessibility determinations and ASTM impact testing are separate scopes performed by appropriately qualified personnel and providers.
