| 摘要： | The purpose of this study is to crash test and evaluate new or modified roadside safety hardware and, where necessary, redesign the devices to improve their impact performance. The three major areas addressed in this study are the impact performance of bridge railings, transitions from guardrails to bridge railings, and end treatments for guardrails and median barriers. This report presents the results of three crash tests conducted on long-span nested W-beam guardrail designs for use over culverts. The first test (test no. 471470-2) was on a 3.81-m (12-ft, 6-in) span design. The second test (test no. 471470-4) was on a S.72-m (18-ft, 9-in) span with a W-beam rail section on the rear of the guardrail. The third test (test no. 471470-5) was also on a 5.72-m (18-ft, 9-in) span, but without a W-beam rail section on the rear of the guardrail. All three crash tests corresponded to National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 230 test designation 10, involving a 2043-kg (4500-lb) passenger car impacting the guardrail at a nominal impact speed and angle of 96.5 km/h (60 mi/h) and 25 degrees. All three nested W-beam guardrail designs performed satisfactorily in die crash tests and met all evaluation criteria set forth in NCHRP Report 230. This volume is the third in a series of 14 volumes for the final report The other volumes in the series are: Volume I - Technical Report; Volume II, Appendix A - Crash Testing and Evaluation of a Michigan Thrie-Beam Transition Design; Volume IV, Appendix C - Crash Testing and Evaluation of a Pennsylvania Transition Design; Volume V, Appendix D – Crash Testing and Evaluation of a Washington, DC, PL-1 Bridge Rail; Volume VI, Appendix E - Crash Testing and Evaluation of a Modified Breakaway Cable Terminal (BCT) Design; Volume VII, Appendix F - Crash Testing and Evaluation of the Minnesota Swing-Away Mailbox Support; Volume VIII, Appendix G - Crash Testing and Evaluation of the Single Slope Bridge Rail; Volume IX, Appendix H - Crash Testing and Evaluation of the NETC PL-2 Bridge Rail Design; Volume X, Appendix I - Crash Testing and Evaluation of a Mini-MELT for a W-Beam, Weak-Post (G2) Guardrail System; Volume XI, Appendix J - Crash Testing and Evaluation of Existing Guardrail Systems; Volume XII, Appendix K - Crash Testing and Evaluation of the MELT; Volume XIII, Appendix L - Crash Testing and Evaluation of the Modified MELT; and Volume XIV, Appendix M - Laboratory and Pendulum Testing of Modified Breakaway Wooden Posts. |
