# Find a Starting Point for Your Standards Review Safety & Technical Planning Match the destination and equipment concept to reference families, then prepare the questions for a local reviewer. 3 min tool + practical guideReviewed 2026-10-22 [Read the guide]() [Discuss your project]() Planning notes ## Select the project context Choose the destination framework, dominant equipment activity and intended age group. - For mixed attractions, review each equipment scope separately rather than assigning one standard to the entire venue. - Use Other market where the destination does not match the listed starting routes. - Include toddlers and adult participants when describing intended users. Planning notes ## Read the result as a review brief A matching reference family is a starting point for a discussion, not a compliance decision. - Confirm the standard edition adopted by the project authority. - Have the reviewer check exclusions, age limits and activity-specific requirements. - Request equipment and surfacing evidence tied to the exact proposed configuration. Planning notes ## Prepare the next conversation Send the result with a floor plan and activity list so that a reviewer can identify missing information. - Name the destination, proposed activities, user ages and installation setting. - Ask which tests, reports and on-site inspections are needed. - Document the final agreed scope and who is responsible for each action. Put it into practice ## Your project preparation checklist - Destination and project authority are known. - All equipment activities are described. - Age groups are recorded. - Reference editions will be confirmed locally. - Equipment reports and drawings are available for review. ## Questions & answers Why is there no match for some combinations? The first version covers only the listed reference routes. Mixed activities and other markets need a project-specific standards assessment. Does the selector check every age-specific condition? No. It records the intended age group and highlights the need to review scope. Your reviewer must check whether a reference covers those users. ## Reference documents - [ASTM — F1487 public-use playground equipment]() - [ASTM — F1918 soft contained play equipment]() - [ASTM — F2970 trampoline courts]() - [BSI — EN 1176 equipment and surfacing series]() Your next step ## Turn your planning notes into a project brief Share the site, target users and open questions with our team.
