Fact 1: Your expensive Sports Hall flooring is specifically designed, manufactured and installed for sports use.
“Never!… You don’t say!… Nothing like stating the obvious!” We hear you cry.
So here are a few more facts that may not be so obvious:
Fact 2: Standard atmospheric pressure is about 14.7 pounds per square inch. (www.nationalgeographic.org)
Fact 3: Pressure is Force divided by Area. (www.highheelsdaily.com)
Fact 3: The high heel can exert more than 15 times the pressure of an elephant’s foot. This is approximately 40 atmospheric pressures. (The Physics Factbook; www.hypertextbook.com Jack Green)
Fact 4: A high heel shoe can cause pressure of 3,250,000 Pa on a floor as the person stands. A four-ton elephant, standing on one foot will cause a pressure of 250,000 Pa under that foot. (www.h2g2.com)
Fact 5: Wooden floors are particularly prone to damage by stiletto heels digging into them and leaving indentations. (www.highheelsdaily.com)
Fact 6: No floor is immune to scratches, scuffs and scrapes… It is more difficult to remedy the problem after damage occurs… exposed metal or wood, worn down glides or dirt-filled felt pads. These abrasive textures come in contact with the smooth floor and continuously abrade the hard surface until it shows signs of wear and numerous visible scratches. (www.floorconsult.com)
