Fall injury reducing pavement : pilot study (English)
Abstract [sv]

Inför kommande upphandlingar av gång- och cykelvägar vill Trafikverket samla information kring ämnet fallskadereducerande beläggningar. Denna förstudie är tänkt att sammanställa kunskap om utvärderingen av fallskador, vilka material och konstruktionsmetoder som finns tillgängliga samt vad det forskas om i dagsläget. Risken att skadas vid fall utvärderas främst genom en standardiserad metod där retardationen i en huvudformad tyngd mäts då den släpps mot det material som studeras. Litteraturen visar flera exempel på cykelvägsbeläggningar, och olika golvmaterial och -konstruktioner, med goda stötdämpande egenskaper. Den stora utmaningen visar sig dock vara att kombinera dessa stötdämpande egenskaper med en beständighet som krävs för en cykelväg.

Abstract [en]

Before upcoming procurement of pedestrian and bicycle paths, The Swedish Transport Administration wishes to collect information about fall injury reducing pavements. This pilot study is aimed at collecting knowledge about the evaluation of fall injuries, which material and construction methods there are available, and what the research situation is on the topic. The risk of being injured when falling is mainly evaluated by a standardized method where the deceleration in a head shaped weight is measured when it is dropped on the studied material. The literature shows multiple examples of bicycle path pavements, and different floor material and constructions, with good shock absorbing properties. The greatest challenge is to combine these shock absorbing properties with a durability needed for a bicycle path.
