Description
KOCHAB is a circular net structure: five steel arches set on a circle carry a spatial rope field 9.0 m across and 4.3 m high. The layout is deliberately demanding — there is no easy perimeter route, and reaching the seats in the upper volume takes a sustained climb.
Built around resting points
What distinguishes KOCHAB from a plain climbing net is where children stop. Five triangular seats and a hammock seat are hung in the rope field, and three rubber membranes give solid places to sit and regroup at height. A rubber wave and a climbing wall add contrasting textures at lower level, and a stainless steel sliding pole provides the quick exit. The structure is used as much for staying as for climbing.
Components
- Three rubber membranes, 9 mm, polyamide-reinforced.
- Eight climbing ropes with varied grips.
- Five triangular seats and one hammock seat.
- Stainless steel sliding pole.
- Rubber wave element.
- Climbing wall in 19 mm HDPE.
Construction
The five arches are hot-dip galvanised steel of 168.3 mm diameter. Nets are 18 mm braided polyamide. Stainless steel components are used where specified, including the sliding pole; the arches themselves are galvanised steel. Installation requires access for lifting plant.
Siting and surfacing
KOCHAB occupies 9.0 x 9.0 m and requires a minimum area of 12.8 x 12.6 m, with foundations at 1.0 m depth. The free height of fall is 2.9 m. The equipment is certified to EN 1176-1:2017-12 by a third-party body; the impact-attenuating surface underneath is a separate specification tested to EN 1177 and rated for at least 2.9 m. KOCHAB is also supplied as a component of larger schemes in our combined rope play structures range.

Frequently asked questions
Are the rubber membranes load-bearing?
They are play surfaces within the rope field, reinforced with polyamide and 9 mm thick. They are not part of the impact-attenuating surfacing required beneath the structure.
Why HDPE for the climbing wall?
High-density polyethylene keeps its colour and surface texture outdoors without painting, and can be replaced panel by panel if a hold is damaged.
Does the circular layout need more clearance than a square unit?
Not proportionally. The required area of 12.8 x 12.6 m is close to square, so the surfaced zone can usually be laid out on a rectangular grid without waste.
