| Summary: | 碩士 === 臺北巿立體育學院 === 休閒運動管理學系碩士班 === 100 === This study is aimed to investigate the type of track and field running track material, the application of current status and future trends. Interviews and document analysis were the methods used to discover the following findings：
1.The formation and development Of track and field runway
material usage.
Track and field runway surface materials was used to overcome natural factors of climate and to create a fair competition venue; its historical background factors were： Firstly, during The ancient Egyptian times in 2600 BC and The ancient Greece in 776 BC, running was a behavior to worship or to celebrate, therefore, they ran on mud. Secondly, during 146 BC Roman times to 1400 AD Renaissance movement, people were running on natural sediment and grass to exercise. Thirdly, cinder material were used during the European Industrial Revolution era, and red clay (brick clay) material were used in 1928 Amsterdam Olympic Games. Finally, synthetic plastic material were used during 1968 Mexico Olympics. At the same time, International Olympic Committee designated it as the official material of the Olympic track and field runway.
2.Planning and design of track and field runway surface
Synthetic track and field runway surface material can be divided into three，First, laying system for on-site polyurethane material, the surface layer is made on scene from modulation into 4 type. Full plastic, particles, composite and breathable. Second, The prefabricated membrane of synthetic rubber from the surface layer is made of factory prefabricated, emphasizing the complete reunification of the properties and thickness of surface layer. Third, Prefabricated membrane PP / PE artificial grass. The grass of the surface layer are free to adjust the length on the use of the venues so it is more diverse.
3.Current status and trends of the development of track and
field runway material
Currently, the use of track and field runway material can be divided into two. First, the use of PU runway surface material is now more commonly used in track and field. Second, synthetic rubber material is widely used in a variety of international track and field events. Development trends can be divided into two parts. The growing popularity of synthetic plastic track and the environmental friendly red clay.
Key words：Track and field,Runway material
