摘要: |
The purpose of the research reported herein was to develop a transition barrier segment that can be used to connect the low-profile barrier (LPCB(1)-92) to the standard height, F-shape portable concrete barrier (CSB-04). The design of the new transition barrier segment is such that no new hardware is required to connect the transition barrier segment to the low-profile barrier and the F-shape barrier. Researchers used computer simulations to evaluate the proposed design and to examine the location of critical impact points that were used in specifying impact conditions for a full-scale evaluation of the new design. Results of two full-scale tests coupled with results from the computer simulations show that the new transition barrier segment is ready for immediate implementation. |
