The pediment is one of the sports facilities of the sport together with the Ball and Ratchet Square. The newly built pediments should adhere to the technical characteristics shown below.

1. TAMAÑO OF FRONTON:

The pediment is composed of a rectangular pitch and three vertical faces called front, left and bounce wall that limit to the field on the one hand greater and two children. The field is opened by the second hand greater. Angles that form the front with the left wall and this with the will bounce straight Angles. The rebound and the left wall will have the same height as the front. The rebound will have the same height as the field. There are three types of pediment according to the format you want to practise:

The dimensions of each type of pediment are as shown in the table below:

2. BAND CONTRACANCHA FOREIGN /:

To facilitate the development and vision of the game by players and spectators provides a free space and without hindrance along the called cancha contracancha. The contracancha separates the playing field of the zone of spectators if it exists or the delimiter fence and is the place where they are placed judges. The contracancha will have a minimum width 4.50 m in all facilities.

3. MARKED THE FRONTON:

Marking the pediment will comply with figures

The brands will have a color that contrast perfectly with the of the field and regalia. Can be painted or with strapping, sheets or other material, in this case should be flush and perfectly incorporated to the floor or wall. Set the following brands:

• Line "escas" pitch limit, 15 cm width is parallel to the wall left and marks the boundary of the distance to go specified in the table dimensions. This line that separates the pitch of the contracancha can be done with a or painted sheet embedded in the pavement, without flight and materials without being dangerous for players provide a different sound before the impact of the ball.
• "Lines escases" regalia limits of 15 cm wide. Together with the line "escas" pitch limit delimit the space of the front, left and bounce wall which they hurl the balls "good". These lines can be painted or with a plate embedded in the wall with sound clear to the ball hits. In the wall left and bounce higher escas line will be to 10 m in height. In the wall rebound is placed a vertical line to 10 m from the wall rebound which will coincide with the field.
• In the front there are three lines "escases", 15 cm width. A horizontal to 10 m above the ground, another horizontal also called "lack" at a height of soil from its top of 1 m (except for the mode of racket which will be 60 cm) and another vertical that restricts the width of the front, which may be until 1.10 m wider than the field. These lines can be painted or with a plate embedded in the wall with sound clear to the ball hits.
• The "tables" divisions are listed on the court to establish the distances of the extraction, lack and passes. Van marked on the wall left and will have the following distances from table to table: 4m (long fronton) 3m (short fronton and 30 m) The lack and passes also mark on the court.
• Lack lines and passes, are drawn in the field and note the area where they hurl balls removed, are parallel to the front with a line of 15 cm width parallel to the wall painted on the ground or with adhesive tape, ranging from the left to the wall contracancha. Correspond to tables 4 and 7 except in the form of racket.
• Olympic ball in which the lack will be in Table 3 and happens in the 5.
• Draw lines, indicate the position of the player who made the semifinals, may be permanent or temporary (e.g.: tapes) In the following tables indicates the distances to draw.

Always distances are measured from the front tables will be 3.50m

meters

Always distances are measured from the front tables will be 3.50m pediments in the least 36 m, the draw will take place at 2 m the wall rebound

Always distances are measured from the front tables will be 4 m

4. HEIGHT FREE OF OBSTÁCULOS:

Since the upper limit of the front, left and wall rebound until the next higher obstacle (belly truss, network, etc. in covered facilities) will have a minimum free height of 2 m and advisable 3 m in short cruises (30 m and 36 m) and 3.50m in long cruises. Therefore the minimum free height from the pavement will be:

The free space will be on the whole field or on the entire width of the front when this is wider than the field. In pelota courts with the height of the walls of the front, left and wall will bounce height minimum free of obstacles. In squash discovered the height of the walls of the front, left and bounce wall will be minimal 1.50 m over the height of the front, and supplemented with an enclosure of metal mesh 1.50 m in short and fronton 2,00 m in long fronton (see point 10)

5. ORIENTACIÓN:

The longitudinal axis of the pitch in outdoor pediments N-S will admit a variation between N-NE N-NO and providing the front northwards and bounce toward the south. If matched the walls lefts in two parallel squash, the longitudinal axis of both fields must match the E-O geographical direction, with their variance within the period between environment and E-NE E-SE so that a front oriented toward the east and the other towards the west.

6. ILUMINACIÓN:

Artificial lighting is uniform and so that does not hinder the vision of the pelotaris, judges nor viewers. Mark the standard UNE-EN 12193 "Illumination of sports facilities" and will have the following minimum levels of illumination:

The luminaires should not be placed on the pitch to avoid deslumbramientos.

For TV broadcasts of color and recording movies requires a vertical illuminance levels of at least 800 lux, however this value can increase with distance from the camera to the object. For more information should consult the mentioned law.

7. PAVEMENT:

The tiles are capable of asphalt fadeout polished, or quartz polishing resins on concrete. The surface of the pavement will be flat (The planeidad will be such that the differences in levels will be less than 3 mm measured with rule of 3 m; 1 / 1000) and horizontal, in outdoor pediments is admitted a sideways slope exceed 0.5% for the evacuation of superficial waters of rain towards the side outside the contracancha. The pavement will be homogeneous rigid and continuous (not boards will not flush) for the response of the pot of the ball is correct and uniform. Be polished enough so that it is not abrasive, facilitates security in the footfall and allow the player and the ball slip on it in a controlled manner without being slippery. The field and contracancha have the same type of flooring in outdoor pediments. In the pelota courts with contracancha may be different material that the field (e.g.: wood), even offering a boat and different sound of the ball considered "bad". The color of the pavement cancha will be equal to the front, left and wall rebound preferably green, also admitted white. The contracancha may be different color.

8. REGALIA:

Front of the facings, wall left and rebound should be perfectly smooth and should not be edges, edges, ruggedness, or anomalous outgoing elements. The front and the rebound (in long cruises) will have a surface finish perfectly flat, uniform, hard, smooth, resistant, stocky, with sufficient thickness and the fewest possible boards, so that have a uniform response to the coup of the ball and can absorb without any decline the impact of the balls without the coup in hole "sounds" allowing in any case the rebound by small. The wall left and the rebound (in short cruises) will have a uniform surface finish, hard and smooth without any roughness to allow the contact, rubbing and slide of balls, tools, hands and bodies. Must bear without any decline the impact of the balls. The facings concrete are used with metal shutters to obtain a perfect planeidad pipe with finish polishing and also in the wall coated with stone block grey limestone or sandstone, hard and impact resistant, 15 cm thick. Along the wall it is recommended to have mattresses with canvas, cork, fabrics or other different elements of the surface of the front, to cushion the balls of "lack". In pelota courts with care should be taken that does not appear in the facings condensation through a ventilation system or to their own composition of the wall, then you can distort or impede the game.

9. PROTECTIVE NETWORKS:

In pelota courts with a network is placed vertically to protection of spectators and facilities (lights, etc.) of size that prevents the passage of balls but does not hinder the vision of the game, the color will be equal to the facings to contrast with the ball. This network must be combo. On the pitch and contracancha, if necessary, there will be a horizontal grid above the height free of obstacles to protect constructive elements (false ceilings, etc.) or facilities.

10. ENCLOSURE:

There will be discovered pediments in an enclosure in the outer limit of the contracancha to avoid the flue of the balls and to protect spectators in your case. The total height of this enclosure will be 8 m of whom the lower 3m must be of metal mesh and the rest can be through malleable material network. The metal elements or oxidizable will not be protected from corrosion. On the walls of the front, left and bounce wall, to avoid the flue of the balls will place a metal mesh curtain oxidable not or protected from corrosion, 1.50 m in height in short fronton and 2m height in pediment long.

11. BALLS

The ball regulations (except in bat and ball of rubber) consists of:

• Kernel or rubber ball into strips that can carry inside a ball of different materials, according to the end to spent. The kernel can be of polypropylene or similar substance that meets the requirements demanded weight and diameter.
• Layer of cotton wool or blocking the kernel.
• Leather cover in the form of two eight that are closed on themselves. The ball tool has two hides remain inside simple protection to the rest of material.

The color of the balls will be your own lining leather, white as possible. In the specialties of racket, the ball will be of rubber Pneum white or yellow, as in rubber palette. The distance to know the minimum and maximum jackpot will be dropping down the ball without force from 2 m. The weight and characteristics of the balls to the different modalities indicated below.

12. TOOLS

In practice of different modes of ball in pediment are used different tools listed below as well as its features:
