Goalpost testing  

Goalpost that need to be weighted down can use this link to calculate the weight conversions for goalpost testing from Newtons to kilos http://www.unitconversion.org/force/newtons-to-kilogram-forces-conversion.html the equation shown  was provided by Sheffield University and it shows how much counter balance is needed to conform to BS 8462 and  EN 748 on freestanding moveable goalposts. To work out the counterweight needed for goalposts to 1100 Newtons topple test = the height of the goal upright divided by the Length of the Ground Side Frame & multiply by 112 Kg …two  weights or two sand bags is just  not enough
