Crashbox! Materials from route construction and inspection in climbing gyms under stress test

In a live demonstration with tearing tests on the ‘Crashbox’, the PETZL Technical Institute will shed light on typical questions relating to route construction and operational inspection in artificial climbing facilities.

Following the specified tests, there will be an opportunity to test the residual strength of material brought along - provided it can be installed in the ‘crash box’. Please contact us in advance so that we can carry out tests efficiently with the materials you have brought with you.

Test results on the usability / useful life of diseased or dead trees

Predicting the stability of dead trees used as supporting structures in high ropes courses is currently difficult and often a matter of ‘gut feeling’. We are in the process of developing a method with clear criteria and are presenting the results of our research on load tests as a diagnostic tool for discussion.
