Step 1: Planning and Design
Running track installation begins with thorough planning and design. NovoTrack's experts conduct a site evaluation to measure the area, analyze the terrain, and assess drainage conditions. We then create a customized design that meets the specific needs of the venue, ensuring optimal performance and compliance with industry standards.
Step 2: Site Preparation
The next step in the installation process is site preparation. This involves clearing the site of debris, vegetation, and any other obstacles. A proper drainage system is also installed or upgraded to ensure the longevity of the track.
Step 3: Base Construction
A strong base is crucial for the durability of a running track. NovoTrack ensures the base is properly graded and compacted to provide a stable foundation. A layer of crushed stone or aggregate is then laid down, offering the necessary support for the subsequent layers.
Step 4: Track Surface Installation
The surface installation is a critical phase in running track installation. The process begins with laying an asphalt or concrete layer to create a smooth, even base. NovoTrack then applies multiple layers of synthetic material, such as polyurethane or rubber, which are evenly spread and compacted to create a resilient and durable track surface.
Step 5: Line Marking and Finishing
Once the surface is installed, precise line marking is applied according to international or national standards. This step ensures that the track is ready for competitive use. NovoTrack also applies a finishing treatment to enhance the track's slip resistance and overall durability.
Step 6: Quality Inspection and Handover
Before the track is handed over, a thorough quality inspection is conducted to ensure every aspect meets NovoTrack's high standards. Once approved, the track is ready for immediate use.
