Like all other great inventions, synthetic grass was born out of a need. With the growth of sports organizations and their appeal to larger audiences, the need for stadiums and sports facilities with higher spectator capacity increased. When the top of the Astro Dome Stadium, which was built in Houston, Texas, United States of America, was completely covered in 1965, it turned out that it was impossible to grow natural grass on the field, and this product, which is considered the ancestor of synthetic grass, whose first trials date back to 1960, was applied. Since then, football field turf has been popular and today it is mostly used.
Football Field with Artificial Grass
Economic conditions have become an important problem for every sports club. For this reason, clubs need some additional resources to develop infrastructure and renovate facilities.
Artificial grass gives the clubs the opportunity to use the football field and develop their players all year round, in all weather conditions, sunny or rainy. Although synthetic turf has the same playing quality as natural turf, its low maintenance cost, as well as the possibility of long playing hours and multiple uses, have led sports fields to be directed to synthetic turf. These properties of synthetic football field installation enable club administrations to lease the pitch to other clubs or to municipalities and private companies for the organization of public events (concerts, etc.). Additionally, artificial turf makes it possible to generate much more use and income with less investment from a field.
Construction of A Football Field with Artificial Grass
There are some steps to be followed for a high-quality football field construction with artificial grass:
- The carpet field plan is prepared.
This stage is usually one of the easiest stages. However, depending on the usage area, there may be a possibility of going out of the standards in every carpet field. For this reason, it is not necessary to start the construction of the open football field without planning the turf field.
- The ground and laying of the beam concrete are leveled.
The fact that the outdoor carpet pitch to be prepared is flat and solid will extend the life of the carpet pitch. For this reason, the entire surface is leveled and the carpet pitch frame is strengthened with the beam concrete application.
- A solid ground is prepared by adding layers of gravel to the beam concrete.
For the best squaring of the carpet pitch, the carpet pitch ground, which has been flattened and surrounded with bonded concrete, is filled with gravel in the most robust manner.
- After the beam concrete is poured, iron and wire construction is carried out.
The iron and wire structure, which ensures that the borders of the football field are clearly defined and that the ball does not go beyond the borders, must be applied with first-class workmanship, otherwise, the environment of the field may not be able to withstand the intense external effects of the coming times.
- The ceiling net of the carpet pitch is stretched.
Thanks to the stretching of this net, the ball is prevented from escaping out of the field while a football match is being played on the football field.
After these processes, artificial turf assembly is started for the football field and a comfortable and safe zone is prepared for the athletes.
