4.1.2 Flammability

To avoid fire and associated hazards, do not use substances that cause surface combustion. Particular attention should be paid to new materials, the quality and characteristics of which have not yet been sufficiently studied.

Note 1 - Surface ignition - rapid spread of flame over the surface of a material without simultaneous combustion of the base of the structure.

During testing in accordance with EN 1021-1 and EN 1021-2, no burning fragments shall fall from the test sample.

Note 2 - Requirements for openings providing the possibility of evacuation in case of fire are given in 4.2.3.

Note 3 - Building codes and fire safety regulations must be observed for equipment installed both indoors and outdoors.

Note 4—The flammability of materials other than textiles is also significant, but there are currently no acceptable test methods for these.

4.1.3 Wood and wood parts

Wooden parts must be made in such a way that precipitation can flow freely from them without accumulating water.

When contacting the ground, the following recommendations must be observed (individually or in combination):

a) use building wood species with sufficient natural resistance to external influences in accordance with durability classes 1 and 2 in accordance with the classification of EN 350-2:1994 (clause 4.2.2).

b) use structural methods of protection (eg stand with base plate);

c) use wood treated with protective agents according to EN 351-1:1995 (Figure A. 1) in accordance with hazard class 4 according to EN 335-2.

If certain defects are present (e.g. damage, infestation), the wood cannot be used for playground equipment.

All structural elements that ensure reliability, made from wood species and wooden products not listed in listing a) and that are in constant contact with the ground, must be processed in accordance with listing c).

When choosing metal fasteners, you should take into account the risk of corrosion of metal parts when in contact with certain types of wood and wood preservatives.

Plywood must comply with EN 636-3 and be weather resistant.

4.1.4 Metals

Metal parts must be protected from weather influences.

Metals that form toxic oxide layers that can crumble or peel off must have a non-toxic protective coating.

4.1.5 Synthetic materials

When tested in accordance with ISO 5470, no coating under the outer finishing layer of glass fiber reinforced plastics is allowed.

Note: This requirement is intended to prevent children from coming into contact with the fiberglass.

When tested according to EN 59, the polymer coating on the surface of glass fiber reinforced synthetic materials shall have the Barcol hardness specified by the manufacturer.

Synthetic materials must be resistant to ultraviolet rays.

If during maintenance it is difficult to determine the condition of the material when it becomes brittle, then the manufacturer must indicate after what period of service the part or equipment must be replaced.

STB EH 1176-1-2006

4.1.6 Hazardous substances

When manufacturing equipment, it is not allowed to use hazardous substances that may adversely affect the health of the user.

NOTE Such materials include, for example: asbestos, lead, formaldehyde, tar, carboline and polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB). The requirements of Directive 79/769/EEC must be taken into account.

4.2 Design and manufacture

4.2.1 General

The size and complexity of the equipment must be appropriate for the intended age group of users. Equipment should be designed in such a way that possible risks when playing are obvious and easily recognized by the child.

Note - Additional safety precautions for equipment accessible to children under three years of age should be taken:

In places where the head is pinched (4.2.7.2 and D.2);

To prevent falling:

To the handrails (4.2.4.3);

To fences (4.2.4.4);

To flights of stairs (4.2.9.2);

To the ramps (4.2.9.3).

Enclosed spaces, including tunnels, should be designed in such a way that water does not accumulate there.

4.2.2 Load-bearing capacity of the structure

Assessment of the load-bearing capacity of the structure, including stability, must be carried out using one of the following methods:

a) the calculation method in accordance with Annexes A and B;

b) a load test in accordance with Annex C;

c) combined method a) and b).

When carrying out calculations in accordance with Appendix B, it is not allowed to exceed the limit state for the combinations of loads specified in B.2.

When testing in accordance with Annex C, the equipment is not allowed to have cracks, damage or unacceptable residual deformations.

For some types of equipment, these calculation or test methods are not always applicable, but this does not make the load-bearing capacity of their structure lower.

The load-bearing capacity of the structure of a group of homogeneous products is checked by subjecting the structure to the most unfavorable combination of loads.

Each structure must withstand both permanent and alternating loads imposed on the equipment or its parts in accordance with Annex C.


Note 1 - Loads that may arise as a result of emergency situations, such as fires, collisions with a motor vehicle or earthquakes, should not be taken into account. NOTE 2 The design load combined with the factors used in B.2 is much greater than the load combined with fatigue. Therefore, the equipment does not require a fatigue test.

1 - part of the load to be removed

4.2.3 Access for adults

The equipment must be designed in such a way that adults can gain access to the equipment to assist children.

Enclosed equipment, such as tunnels and playhouses, with an internal distance greater than 2000 mm from the entrance are permitted only if there are at least two independent access openings located on opposite sides of the equipment. These access openings must not be locked and must be accessible without the use of auxiliary means (for example, ladders that are not integral with the equipment). Such openings must be at least 500 mm.

In emergency situations, access openings must allow the user to exit the equipment and reach the ground in a variety of ways.

4.2.4 Fall prevention

The height of the handrails should be no less than 600 mm and no more than 850 mm when measured from the surface of the platform, flight of stairs or ramp to the top edge of the handrails. In accordance with EN 1177:1997 (clause 4.2), there must be an impact-absorbing coating.

STB EH 1176-1-2006

4.2A4 Guardrails

Equipment that can be accessed by children under three years of age must have guards if the standing area level is more than 600mm above the playing surface. Equipment that is difficult to reach by young children (under three years of age) must have a guard if the standing area level is more than 2000mm above the playing surface. The height of the guardrail must be at least 700 mm when measured from the surface of the platform, flight of stairs or ramp to the top edge of the guardrail. If the level of the standing area is more than 600 mm above the playing surface, then an impact-absorbing surface must be provided.

It is not allowed to have intermediate horizontal or slightly sloping elements that could be used by children as climbing steps. The design of the upper elements of the fences should not allow children to stand or sit on them. The design of the fence should not contain elements that allow children to climb on it.

4.2.4.5 Strength requirements

Handrails and barriers must satisfy 4.2.2.

4.2.4.6 Grip requirements

The cross-section of the gripper shall be not less than 16 mm and not more than 45 mm (see 3.14 and Figure 5) when measuring in all directions through its center.

4.2.5 Equipment surface

Wooden equipment should be made from wood that is not prone to cracking. Surfaces of finished equipment made of other materials (for example, fiberglass) must not have cracks.

There should be no protruding nails, unprotected protruding ends of wire ropes or sharp parts.

Rough surfaces should not pose a risk of injury.

The protruding ends of threaded connections of accessible parts of equipment should be protected, for example, by cap nuts. Nuts and bolt heads protruding no more than 8 mm must not have burrs. Welds must be cleaned.

Note - Figure 10 shows methods for protecting elements of threaded connections.

Accessible corners, edges, and parts protruding more than 8 mm that cannot be protected by the nearest surface, the distance from which to the end of the protruding part is no more than 25 mm, must be rounded. The rounding radius must be at least 3 mm.

Accessible parts of the equipment must not have hard or sharp parts.

Figure 10 - Examples of protection of threaded connections

4.2.6 Moving parts

Crushing and cutting points are not allowed between moving and/or stationary parts of equipment, which must comply with 4.2.7.

Impact loads must be absorbed.

There must be a free space of at least 400 mm between the ground (floor) and movable equipment, which is fixed above the user on rigid suspensions.

4.2.7 Pinch protection

4.2.7.1 General

When selecting materials, the manufacturer must take into account possible risks of pinching due to deformation of the material during use.

Note 1—Methods for testing pinch points are given in Annex D.

Note 2—Possible situations in which entrapment may occur are described in Annex F.

The angle between the walls of V-shaped gaps should be less than 60°.

4.2.7.2 Head and neck entrapments

Equipment must be designed so as not to create a risk of entrapment of the head and neck, regardless of whether the occupant is designed to move in a head-first or feet-first direction.

Note - Dangerous options in which pinching may occur:

a) completely enclosed openings through which the user can move with his head or feet

b) partially closed openings or V-shaped gaps;

c) cut points or movable openings.

If accessible fully enclosed openings, the lower edge of which is above the floor (ground) or standing platform level at a height of more than 600 mm, are capable of passing a small probe, then the large probe shall also pass through the opening when tested in accordance with D.2.I. .

STB EH 1176-1-2006

Partially enclosed openings and V-shaped gaps that begin at a height of 600 mm or more from the floor (ground) must be designed so that one of the following conditions is met:

a) when tested in accordance with D.2.2, the clearance was not accessible;

b) if, when tested in accordance with D.2.2, the clearance is accessible, then:

When tested, the template should reach the bottom of the gap (see Figure D.4 a);

The template should touch the sides of the gap at a height of no more than 600 mm above the floor (ground) (see Figure D.4 b).

For equipment accessible to children under three years of age, rigid openings more than 600 mm above the ground or standing area shall not allow passage of a 130 mm diameter probe similar in design to probe D (see Figure D.1). , before the big dipstick D.

Moving parts (for example, ropes) should not be intertwined if they create openings that do not meet the requirements for completely enclosed openings.

Openings between flexible elements of suspension bridges and fixed side parts of the structure under the most unfavorable combination of loads (see 4.2.2) must have a diameter of at least 230 mm. Both loaded and unloaded conditions must be taken into account.

4.2.7.3 Clothing entrapment

Equipment should be designed to avoid hazardous situations, especially suffocation due to clothing entrapment:

a) in crevices and V-shaped gaps in which parts of clothing may become pinched before or just as the wearer makes a movement;

b) in projections;

c) in rotating parts.

Note 1—Button tests are carried out only in free space, as a result of practical experience, due to the fact that the starting materials and connections of various parts of the equipment are subject to change over time. The definition of free space (see 3.4) does not include the three-dimensional space in which the fall occurs.

When using elements with a circular cross-section, special attention must be paid to preventing parts of clothing from becoming entangled in the fall zone.

NOTE 2 An example of avoiding such a hazard is the use of spacers and similar devices.

Slides and climbing equipment shall be designed so that, when tested in accordance with D.3, a button will not become stuck in free space gaps.

Where children's playground equipment has a roof, its design shall not allow buttons to become stuck when tested in accordance with D.3.

Rotating parts must be equipped with devices to prevent clothing and hair from getting tangled.

Note 3—Prevention of wrapping can be achieved by using a special coating or protection.

4.2.7.4 Whole body entrapment

The equipment should be designed so that there are no hazardous situations that could result in entrapment of the entire body, in particular:

a) in tunnels in which children can crawl;

b) between heavy hanging parts or rigidly suspended parts.

Tunnels must meet the requirements given in Table 1.

4.2.7.5 Foot or leg entrapment

The equipment must be designed in such a way that there are no hazards that could cause entrapment, including:

a) in completely enclosed, immovable openings in surfaces on which children can walk or climb;

b) in footrests, handrail posts, etc., protruding from these surfaces.

NOTE In case b), a pinched shin or ankle could result in serious injury to the user if he falls.

Surfaces with an angle of up to 45°, except for suspension bridges, should not have gaps greater than 30 mm when measured in one direction (see Figure 11).

Flat surfaces intended for running or walking should not have cracks in which a foot or leg could get stuck.

4.2.7.6 Pinched fingers

The equipment must be designed so that there are no entrapment hazards, including:

a) in crevices where fingers may become stuck while the rest of the body is moving or inertially moving, such as sliding, swinging, falling;

b) in pipes with open ends;

c) in moving slots (except for chains).

When tested in accordance with D.4, openings within a free space in which the user is forced to move, and openings whose bottom edge is at least 1200 mm above the possible support surface, shall meet one of the following requirements:

1) a pin-rod (simulating the shape of a pin) with a diameter of 8 mm (see Figure D.8) must not pass through the minimum cross-section of the opening, and the profile of the opening must be made in such a way that the pin-rod, when rotated in accordance with D.4.2, does not could get stuck in any position;

2) if a pin-rod with a diameter of 8 mm passes through the opening, then a 25-mm pin-rod (see Figure D.8) must also pass through the opening, but provided that in this case the opening does not create new pinch points.

The ends of the pipes must be covered to prevent possible risk of pinching fingers.

Guardrails should not be removed without the use of special tools.

Gaps between equipment elements, the dimensions of which change during operation, must have dimensions of at least 12 mm in any position of these elements.

4.2.8.1 Definition of zones

4.2.8.1.1 Minimum space

The minimum space (see Figure 1) includes the following elements:

a) the space occupied by the equipment;

b) free space (if any);

c) fall space.

STB EH 1176-1-2006

4.2.8.1.2 Free space dimensions

Unless otherwise specified, free space is defined as a successive row of cylinders containing the user (see Figure 12), perpendicular to the playing surface and located along the direction of the user's forced movement.

The dimensions of the cylinder are shown in Table 2 and Figure 13. When determining the free space, it is necessary to take into account the possible movements of the gaming equipment and the user.

Table 2 - Cylinder dimensions for determining free space

Dimensions in millimeters



Note - In certain cases, the dimensions of the free space may be changed. For some cases, these dimensions are specified in the relevant parts of this standard regarding individual types of play equipment.

4.2.8.1.3 Drop space dimensions

The dimensions of the fall zone are shown in Figure 14.


y = (1.5)x-0.75,

if y > 0.6< 1,5, то х = 1,5, если у >1.5, then x = 2/3 y + 0.5

y is the height of free fall; x - minimum size of the fall zone

Figure 14 - Size of the fall zone

When determining the fall zone, it is necessary to take into account possible movements of equipment elements and the user.

In certain cases, such as carousels where the user receives horizontal speed, it may be necessary to increase the drop zone to ensure safety from possible damage.

Note - Additional requirements are established in the relevant parts of this standard for specific types of gaming equipment.


Examples of the impact space are shown in Figures 15 and 16.

1 - space occupied by equipment;

2 - fall space;

3 - free space; a - see table 2

Figure 16 - Example of fall space from climbing equipment 4.2.8.1.4 Free fall height

Unless otherwise specified, the free fall height is determined in accordance with Table 3. When determining the free fall height, possible movements of the elements of the playground equipment and the user must be taken into account. It follows from this that the distance should be set to the maximum.

4.2.8.2 Measures to protect against injury in the free space of the user performing forced movement transferred to him by the equipment

Unless otherwise specified, adjacent clear spaces or free spaces and fall spaces shall not overlap.

Note 1 - This requirement does not apply to the common space between individual equipment belonging to the same group of homogeneous products.

There should be no obstacles in the free space. Parts of play equipment designed to support or provide access to the user or to assist the user in balance, such as a platform with a climbing pole, may be present in the free space.

Note 2 - Relevant parts of this standard that specify requirements for individual

types of gaming equipment, specify this requirement.

Primary pedestrian routes (eg footpaths) must not cross clear space on the playing surface.

4.2.8.3 Impact space limits

Unless otherwise specified, the drop area shall be 1.5 m measured from the projection onto the drop zone of any point of equipment directly elevated above the playing surface.

4 Safety requirements

4.1 Materials

4.1.1 General

Materials must comply with the requirements of 4.1.2 - 4.1.6.

Industrially produced materials should be used.

Note 1—The specification of specific materials in this standard does not mean that other similar materials for the manufacture of play equipment are not permitted.

Particular attention should be paid to the potential toxicity of surface coatings. The selection and protection of material should be carried out in such a way that the integrity of the structure is ensured until the next inspection.

Particular attention should be paid to the selection of materials for equipment exposed to extreme climatic and natural influences.

When exposed to very low or very high temperatures, the material should be selected in such a way as to prevent hazards that may arise from contact with the user's skin.

When choosing a material for the manufacture of equipment, it is necessary to take into account the possibility of subsequent disposal and possible negative impacts on the environment.

On the prevention of accidents during the operation of children's playground equipment

On July 18, 2016, a minor was injured while sliding down a slide located on the territory of the playground for an extended day group, educational and pedagogical complex of a kindergarten-secondary school in the Shchuchinsky district.

Upon inspection of the dismantled parts of the slide, it was established that the metal sheet for sliding down at the points of connection to the right side was rusty and a gap with sharp edges appeared between it and the welds, which violates the requirements of clause 4.7. STB EN 1176-3 “Equipment for children's playgrounds” (the surface of the slide and side sides must be made in such a way as to exclude the possibility of injury and pinching of arms, legs and clothing).

In addition, a similar violation was identified on the second slide, where there was a gap on the sliding surface at the junction of pieces of sheet metal, which can lead to injury when sliding, since it does not exclude the possibility of pinching hands, feet and clothing. Welded seams at the junction must satisfy the first class in strength (do not have broken seams or cracks).

No soil (sand) was added at the final section of the slide, which led to the formation of depressions. According to clause 4.5 of STB EN 1176-3, the end of the slide must reach the ground surface and according to clause 8.2.6 of STB EN 1176-7, maintenance must be carried out to restore shock-absorbing coatings to the required height.

On the slide located on the territory of the kindergarten, the junction of the left side side with the sliding surface in the upper part has a gap, which does not exclude the possibility of pinching fingers and clothing, which can lead to a child falling.

In addition, the side rails of two slides were cut off. The height of the side sides did not correspond to the required one (with a slide height of 1200mm, the height of the side should be at least 150mm).

To prevent cases of injury to children and ensure proper control over the technical condition of sports, play and outdoor equipment in educational and pedagogical complexes, before the start of the school year and the summer health campaign, it is necessary to test sports equipment for both school and kindergarten and record the results for each equipment in the journal for recording test results and monitoring the reliability of the installation of sports equipment and exercise machines. Draw up a plan to eliminate the identified defects and, until they are eliminated, prohibit the use of faulty equipment.

For guidance in the work, we attach a memo on ensuring the safe operation of children's playground equipment and a list of typical violations of the requirements of technical regulatory legal acts identified during the implementation of state supervision during the operation of children's playground equipment in 2015-2016.

compliance with safety requirements when designing (constructing) and manufacturing gaming equipment;

fulfillment of requirements for the placement (installation) of equipment on the playground;

monitoring the technical condition of equipment;

Adult control over children’s behavior when using playground equipment.

Safety requirements for the design (construction) and manufacture of gaming equipment

The design (construction) and production of equipment for children's playgrounds must be carried out in accordance with the requirements of the set of state standards of the Republic of Belarus STB EN 1176-2006 (parts 1-7) “Equipment for children's playgrounds” (hereinafter referred to as STB EN 1176), approved and introduced into action by the resolution of the State Standard of the Republic of Belarus. In this case, the following basic safety requirements must be observed, which must be monitored during operation of the equipment.

Children's play equipment must be designed in such a way that possible risks during play are obvious and easily recognized by the child. If a child becomes ill while playing, the design of the equipment should allow unhindered access for an adult to assist the child.

The equipment must be made of materials that are durable and safe for the health of children. The use of polymeric flammable materials, materials with hazardous combustion products, and new materials whose properties have not been sufficiently studied is not allowed.

Wooden equipment must be made of hard wood with special treatment to prevent rotting, drying out, fire, and chipping; be polished. Metal structures must have reliable connections, moisture-resistant painting and anti-corrosion coating.

The design of play equipment must completely exclude such holes and joints of surfaces that can lead to parts of the child’s body and items of clothing getting stuck, as well as getting caught under elements of the equipment while in motion. The angle between the walls of V-shaped gaps and cracks must be at least 60°. In addition, moving and stationary elements of equipment should not form compressive or cutting surfaces.

There should be no protruding nails, unprotected protruding ends of wire ropes or sharp parts. The protruding ends of threaded connections must be protected, for example, with cap nuts. Nuts and bolt heads must be free of burrs. Welds must be cleaned. Corners and edges accessible to children, as well as parts protruding more than 8 mm (for example, nuts and bolt heads) of equipment must be rounded. The minimum radius of curvature is 3 mm.

A shock-absorbing coating of the playing surface must be provided (the coating can be sand, soil, lawn, rubber, polymer, etc.).

Railings and barriers should be installed to protect children from falling from equipment.

The manufacturer/supplier of the equipment must complete it with operational documentation, which includes:

instructions for installation and placement of equipment;

maintenance instructions.

Requirements for placement (installation) of equipment
on the children's playground

Children's playgrounds should be located away from the roadway and parking lots. There should be no sewer hatches, power lines, transformer boxes, etc. on the site.

The equipment must be installed in accordance with the requirements of the manufacturer's installation and placement instructions. The instructions must contain:

dimensions of the minimum space for placing equipment and safe distances from the equipment to the surface of the playing area;

list of equipment components;

assembly sequence;

necessary symbols to facilitate assembly (for example, marks on assembly parts of equipment and detailed instructions);

a list of necessary special devices and tools for installation (lifting devices, templates, gauges, patterns, etc.), precautions during installation and installation;

torque values ​​for tightening threaded connections (if necessary);

dimensions of the site for installation of each type of equipment;

When placing equipment on children's playgrounds, the minimum safety distances must be observed in accordance with the table:

Within the specified distances on children's playgrounds, it is not permitted to place other types of play equipment, benches, trash cans, side stones and hard surfaces, as well as branches, trunks, and tree roots.

It is not allowed to leave protruding metal bridges of play equipment that are not buried in the ground (for example, horizontal bars and swings).

When organizing and equipping children's playgrounds, their territory should be divided into zones according to age categories, allocating places for children from 1 to 4 years old. Thus, according to Part 2 of STB EN 1176, it is recommended that swings intended for use by young children should be installed separately from swings intended for children of older age groups. It is not recommended to combine cradle seats for small children and flat seats for older children in one section. The standard requires swings to be installed at the edge of the playground in enclosed spaces so that children can swing while facing the playground.

Additional safety requirements for slides installed on children's playgrounds are contained in part 3 of STB EN 1176.

Each slide must have a starting section of at least 350 mm in length with an inclination angle of no more than 5°. The angle of inclination of the sliding section at any point should not exceed 60°. The width of open and straight slides must be at least 700 mm and no more than 950 mm. The height of the side edges in sliding areas, depending on the height of free fall, should be from 100 to 500 mm. Closed sections of tunnel slides must have a clear height and width of at least 750 mm.

Additional safety requirements for carousels installed on children's playgrounds are contained in part 5 of STB EN 1176. In this case, the maximum free fall height from the carousel should not exceed 1000 mm. The free space around the carousel must be at least 2000 mm.

Additional safety requirements for rocking chairs/balancers installed on children's playgrounds are contained in part 6 of STB EN 1176. Rocking chairs/balancers must have a minimum free space under the equipment of 230 mm to prevent pinching of users' feet. In this case, each seat must have firmly fixed supports for arms and legs.

Monitoring the technical condition of gaming equipment

Any newly installed children's playground equipment must be put into operation. Before commissioning, inspection and testing of equipment for compliance with the requirements of operational documentation, STB EN 1176 is carried out by the owner of the equipment together with the supplier and a representative of the organization that installed the equipment.

During operation, control over the technical condition of children's playground equipment, maintenance and repair is carried out by the owner of the equipment in accordance with the requirements for frequency and scope of control, which are set out in the operational documentation of the equipment manufacturer.

If the operational documentation does not contain the specified requirements, monitoring the technical condition of children's playground equipment should include:

periodic visual inspection;

operation control;

annual control.

Periodic visual inspection consists of checking equipment to detect dangerous defects that have arisen during operation, caused by acts of vandalism and (or) climatic conditions. The frequency of visual inspection is determined by the owner based on operating conditions. Children's playground equipment that is subject to intensive use requires daily visual inspection.

Functional monitoring is a detailed inspection with the aim of checking the strength and stability of the equipment, identifying wear of its structural elements and fastening points. This type of control is carried out periodically at least once every
3 months.

Annual control carried out once a year to confirm the safe operating condition of the equipment, including its foundations and surfaces. The safe operating condition of the equipment may be affected, for example, by adverse weather conditions, rotting of wooden elements or corrosion of metal elements, as well as changes in the safety status due to repairs carried out due to changes in design or replacement of parts. At the same time, making changes to the design of the equipment without agreement with its manufacturer is not allowed. During annual inspection, special attention should be paid to the condition of hidden, hard-to-reach equipment elements.

Owners of children's playground equipment must ensure the drawing up and implementation of a plan for eliminating the comments identified during the control process for each type of equipment.

During the control process the following is determined:

the cleanliness and appearance of the playground surface and equipment;

maintaining distances from parts of equipment to the surface of the playground;

the presence of protruding parts of the foundations;

presence of defects/malfunctions of equipment elements;

lack of equipment parts;

unacceptable wear of moving parts of equipment;

structural integrity of the equipment.

Before control is exercised, the owner takes measures to maintain the equipment of children's playgrounds:

checking and tightening fasteners;

updating the painting of equipment;

maintenance/restoration of shock-absorbing coatings;

bearing lubrication;

ensuring the cleanliness of equipment and coatings (removal of splinters, debris and contaminants).

maintenance of security zone space.

If, as a result of monitoring, malfunctions/defects are discovered that affect the safety of the equipment, they should be eliminated immediately. If this is not possible, the equipment must be taken out of service. Measures should be taken to ensure that faulty equipment cannot be used until it is dismantled or repaired. Remnants of dismantled equipment (racks, foundations) located above the ground are not allowed on the site.

The results of monitoring the technical condition of children's playground equipment are drawn up in an act and recorded in a journal.

The child is at the center of everything that we plan, design and produce and, first of all, we think about his health, development, and safety.
The safe construction and design of playground equipment should be the subject of close attention by designers, manufacturers, suppliers of this equipment, organizations and persons responsible for the construction, maintenance and operation of playgrounds; organizations involved in the development of regulatory documentation, regulatory bodies of state, regional and local authorities.

In the mid-90s, in the European Union there was a need to create a unified safety standard for children's playgrounds. In 1998, having combined the main provisions of national standards, having carried out a lot of technical and coordination work, the European Committee for Standardization approved the mandatory standard for the countries of the European Union - EN 1176: 1998. In 2000, KSIL, the only CIS manufacturer of playground equipment, passed certification of its products for compliance with this standard at the International Certification Center TUV Product Service.

In 2006 In the Republic of Belarus, an identical safety standard for children's playgrounds STB EN 1176-2006 was adopted. These standards take into account the causes of injuries on playgrounds and develop basic safety requirements: the equipment must be designed so that it is obvious that children can be involved in the game. The size and difficulty of the equipment must be suitable for the intended age group of children. The overall stability of the equipment must be verified by one of the following methods: calculation, physical testing, or a combination of both.
