摘要: Crash barriers, also known as traffic safety barriers, are efficient transportation systems that are used to keep vehicles on track and are implemented for the safety of pedestrians as well as to prevent collision. In addition, crash barriers are used to avoid passengers from losing control of the vehicle, entering into deep water or falling from steep slopes. Furthermore, crash barriers such as median barriers are installed in between the highways to prevent vehicles from losing control & leaving their side of road and entering the opposite lane. Median barriers are designed as to prevent damages when struck from either side. The metal beam crash barriers are being used on high-speed corridors at accident prone locations especially at locations like Valley sides of hill roads, high embankments, sharp/blind curves. These are very useful in containing, redirecting and absorbing impact energy of the hitting vehicles and reducing the severity of the accidents.
