I'd say 5 days or so and the grass will be fine. Much longer if it's
dormant due to cold weather. If it's possible to use some of the wood
to keep the rest of it slightly above the ground so that air can get
in, that would extend the time as well. It can go without sunlight
longer than it can withstand being smothered. left wet, etc.

You are correct. It should recover.
Good point. Get a piece of plywood and put it on some of the timbers so
as to minimize the ground contact so the grass can breath.

Where are you? Is the grass dormant? It's covered by around 15" of snow
here. It always come back in the spring.
