Safety of Spectators and Athletes Circulation
Safety of Spectators and Athletes
CIRCULATION
A strict division of the circulation systems for spectators and for athletes is of particular importance to the safety of the athletes. For facilities with larger spectator capacities. a separation system between the spectator and the sports areas is essential.(Fiqures 1.8.1a and 1.8 1b)
SAFETY MARGINS
Due to the integration of various facilities for sports into one large complex,which is common today and necessary for economic reasonsthe provision of certain safety margins between areas for individual disciplines of sports to preclude any dangerous activities, has become particularly important. The same also applies to the keeping ot safety areas free from obstructions of all types.Organisers as well as officials,judges and athletes must pay very special attention to these aspects.
The safe conduct of Track and Field events is addressed in Chapters 2 and 3
