Synthetic Turf at Athletic Fields

About this detail

These two athletic field details illustrate the multi-layer construction of synthetic turf surfacing over compacted subgrades. Type 1 at the multi-use field consists of a synthetic turf carpet with a one and a half inch depth infill over a twenty-five millimeter E-layer pad, a two inch permeable top stone, a permeable base stone with a minimum eight inch depth, and a geotextile fabric layer over a compacted subgrade. Type 2 at the baseball and softball fields replaces the E-layer pad with a two inch permeable top stone directly beneath the synthetic turf carpet and infill, followed by permeable base stone, geotextile fabric, and a compacted subgrade. Both assemblies specify geotextile fabric overlaps of a minimum twelve inches secured with staples, with elevations and subdrainage per the civil and geotechnical specifications.
