18、 15567-1:2007) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 136 “Sports, playground and other recreational equipment”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN. This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at
19、 the latest by June 2008, and conflicting national standards shall be withdrawn at the latest by June 2008. This standard is divided into the following two parts: Part 1: Construction and safety requirements. Part 2: Operation requirements. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the nati
20、onal standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Cyprus, Czech Repub- lic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway

22、rmitted without license from IHS -,-,- EN 15567-1:2007 (E) 4 Introduction Ropes courses vary considerably and may be used for education, recreational, training or therapeutic pur- poses. Ropes course activities involve risks that should be managed by the operators. This is achieved through care- ful
23、 supervision, training, instruction, information etc. Ropes course activities should only be taken by those who are physically and mentally able to comply with the safety requirements specified by the operator. The various safety devices (for protection against falling from a height and collisions)
24、consist of equipment designed to limit the consequences of falls or collisions. There are inherent risks associated with ropes courses. These risks should, however, be appropriately managed and minimised by the ropes course operator and his staff; it should be understood that they can not be elimina
25、ted altogether. On the basis of a risk assessment, operators should take reasonably practicable measures to ensure the safety of participants. This means that the degree of risks in a particular job/work place/facility need to be bal- anced against the time, trouble, cost, benefits and physical diff
26、iculty of taking measures to avoid or reduce the risk. Ropes course operators should also consider EN 15567-2, when carrying out risk assessments.
