Zusammenfassung:A multi-purpose progressive stage load distributing and absorbing system that lies below a superstructure material that is exposed to percussive forces. The progressive stage load distributing and absorbing system is interposed between the superstructure material and a foundation. The system has a barrier layer that lies below the superstructure material and an underlayment infrastructure positioned below the barrier layer. Included in the underlayment infrastructure are hat-shaped absorbing members that have a relatively compliant region and one or more relatively stiff regions.
