The 12 Step to help you install the Artificial Grass !!

  1. Prepare and test the base ground: inspect the foundation of playground to ensure it has a flat and smooth surface and appropriate slopes, making sure the foundation is qualified for installing artificial turf. The base of the installation, which is either concrete or compacted soil, must be leveled by a bulldozer and then smoothed by a steam roller. Uneven surfaces will still be evident once the turf is supplied.
  2. Measuring line: locate the centers of the ground and the two semicircles, and according to these three centers locate the intersecting point of half-way lines and touchlines, and then determine the positions of functional lines and spot by using pythagorean proposition.
  3. Move the turf rolls to the field: according to drawing, position the turf rolls on the exact places along the touchline.
  4. Lay out the turf roll: lay out the turf rolls according to the drawing with artificial turf paver machine or manpower.
  5. Cutting the edge: cut white turf piece into strips (width to be as per actual need) for white functional lines (half-way lines, base lines etc), and put them aside preparing for installation.
  6. Glue and joint side of turf: the adjacent turf rolls must be join together with 20~30mm excess on both sides, then cut the excess part with a special cutting knife on the joint center and trim the cut to make the turf join perfectly together. After trimming, place the 20-30 width seam tape on the foundation surface and make the joint line of turf right on the middle of the seam tape. And then apply the adhesive to seam tape evenly with a rubber spreader, and press down the turf on both sides of the seam tape firmly.
  7. Cutting white line: measure and re-position the white line on the turf that has been all well joined on the ground. Cut the turf out and place the seam tape beneath the cuts.
  8. Inlaying the white line: inlaying the white line according to the drawing by manpower.
  9. Check the point and white line.
  10. Infill silica sand: place the sand piles on the finished lawn on different spots evenly at a distance of 4m from each other, then spread them evenly on the lawn(the quantity of sand depends on the pile height of the turf). Afterwards, use the combing machine to sweep the sand into the fibers and to comb up the fibers. Do this process once longitudinally and transversely.
  11. Infill rubber granules: after sand infilling, place the rubber granules piles on the lawn on different spots evenly at a distance of 4m from each other, then spread them evenly on the lawn (the quantity of sand depends on the pile height of the turf). Afterwards, use the combing machine to sweep the sand into the fibers and to comb up the fibers. Do this process once longitudinally and transversely.
  12. Brush Grass: to brush the grass in the vertical and horizontal one time by the grass-brushing machine.
  13. Check and Acceptance: inspect the entire finished lawn as per concerned standards and requirement. If any defects found, correct it.

 

Atten: turf system can be either filled or unfilled, some sports fields need, and some dont. A filled system is designed so that once it is installed, a material such as crumbled cork, rubber pellets, or sand (or a mixture) is spread over the turf and raked down in between the fibers. The material helps support the blades of fiber, and also provides a surface with some give, that feels more like the soil under a natural grass surface. Filled systems have some limitations, however. Filling material like cork may break down or the filling material can become contaminated with dirt and become compacted. In either case the blades are no longer supported. Maintenance may require removing and replacing all of the fill.
