Investigation and Development of a MASH Test Level 6, Cost-Effective Barrier System for Containing Heavy Tractor Tank-Trailer Vehicles and Mitigating Catastrophic Crash Events – Phase III
项目名称: Investigation and Development of a MASH Test Level 6, Cost-Effective Barrier System for Containing Heavy Tractor Tank-Trailer Vehicles and Mitigating Catastrophic Crash Events – Phase III
摘要: For this study, a new, cost-effective, Test Level 6 vehicle containment system will be developed to prevent and/or mitigate the consequences of errant heavy tanker-truck vehicles striking opposing traffic on heavily-congested urban freeways and interstates as well as crashes into high-risk facilities or highly-populated areas, such as schools, malls, sports venues, concert arenas, military bases, international airports, or critical government buildings. The new optimized barrier system will provide adequate structural strength, investigate reduced heights, consider visual appeal for communities, implement height transitions for barrier ends, incorporate options for expansion/contraction joints, and remain safe for errant motorists operating light to heavy passenger vehicles.
