Simulated turf is an artificial turf that can replace the real turf. There are many types of simulated turf in the market today, and different types can be used in different places. So, what are the types of simulated lawns? How to prolong the service life of the simulated lawn in daily life? Let's have a detailed understanding of "what are the methods and types to extend the life of the simulated lawn".

[what are the types of simulated lawns]

Even though most golf courses have replaced natural turf with artificial turf, the setting of sprinkler system is still essential, because proper watering is also very beneficial to artificial turf, especially in hot weather, watering can reduce the temperature of artificial turf surface and delay its aging. When setting the sprinkler system for the artificial lawn, we should also pay more attention to the design according to the actual situation of the site. For example, the flat area and the high grass area cannot share the same sprinkler system because they require different watering times

In the actual application process, because the sprinkler system may be affected by the wind, the flow and pressure of the sprinkler irrigation itself and other factors, some artificial turf of the football field in the sprinkler irrigation covered area will show water shortage. In this case, it needs to be manually supplemented to avoid excessive sprinkler irrigation in other normal areas. Since there is a sprinkler system in the artificial lawn with cartoon patterns, it is natural to set up a drainage system, especially in some low-lying areas. The drainage system can effectively solve the problem of water accumulation, so that the artificial lawn can keep an appropriate amount of water.

Although the artificial lawn does not require as much water as the natural lawn, it also needs regular and uniform irrigation during its maintenance. On the one hand, it can wash the dirt on the surface of the artificial lawn and on the other hand, it can also play a role in cooling. There are three commonly used artificial landscape turf foundations, namely, asphalt foundation, cement foundation and gravel foundation. Which one should be selected actually depends on the local climate environment and the relevant project budget. For example, it is suitable for the climate environment with large temperature difference in the north and low temperature in winter. It is not suitable for the warm and humid environment.

For these artificial turf foundations, although the gravel foundation is simple in construction, low in cost and quick in drainage, due to its poor rigidity and stability, it will become loose after long-term use, resulting in uneven artificial turf. Therefore, the cost performance of cement foundation is relatively high.

During the construction of cement foundation of artificial lawn in kindergartens, the requirements for surface flatness are better, because it will directly affect the thickness and elasticity uniformity of artificial lawn surface layer, so the flatness qualification rate of cement foundation shall be controlled above 95%.
