摘要: |
The objective of this research was to evaluate the impact performance of the TxDOT T224 Bridge Rail according to the safety-performance evaluation guidelines included in AASHTO MASH for Test Level Five (TL-5). This report describes the TxDOT T224 Bridge Rail, documents the impact performance of the rail system according to MASH TL-5 evaluation criteria, and presents recommendations regarding implementation. The TxDOT T224 Bridge Rail as tested herein met all the safety evaluation criteria and performance requirements of MASH TL-5. Based on the successful results from all three full-scale crash tests, the TxDOT T224 Bridge Rail as tested and reported herein is recommended for implementation on new bridges requiring MASH TL-5 performance requirements. |
