W-Beam Crash Barrier

Categories
A W-Beam Crash Barrier, also known as a W-Beam Guardrail, is a type of roadside barrier used to reduce the severity of accidents on highways and other high-speed roadways. It is made of a W-shaped steel beam that is anchored to posts that are embedded in the ground.
The W-Beam Crash Barrier is designed to redirect a vehicle that has left the roadway back onto the roadway, and also absorb the energy of the impact, thus reducing the potential damage to the vehicle and its occupants. The W-shape of the barrier also helps to prevent the vehicle from climbing over the barrier.
W-Beam Crash Barriers are typically made of galvanized steel, which helps to protect them from corrosion, and are available in different sizes to suit different road widths and traffic speeds. They are also designed to be easy to install, with minimal disruption to traffic flow.
W-Beam Crash Barriers are commonly used on highways and other high-speed roadways as they provide a high level of safety and are cost-effective. They are also widely used in areas where there is a high risk of wildlife-vehicle collisions.
Advanced Material Specifications
Manufactured from hot-dipped galvanized steel, the W-Beam Crash Barrier offers superior rust and corrosion resistance. Its structural integrity is enhanced by a minimum tensile strength of 410 MPa, providing reliable performance under impact. The galvanization process strictly follows IS 2062, IS 10748, and ASTM A123 standards to ensure long-lasting durability in all weather conditions.
Versatile Installation and Applications
The W-Beam Crash Barrier is designed for straightforward, bolted installation on highways, expressways, bridges, parking lots, and industrial sites. Compatible with both C channel and RSJ post types, it can be adapted to various site requirements. Accessories like posts, spacers, terminal ends, and fasteners are included, enabling seamless integration into diverse roadway systems.
Safety Compliance and Customization
Adhering to international safety standards such as MORTH, AASHTO M180, and EN 1317, this crash barrier guarantees compliance for government and private projects. Standard sizes are readily available, but beam thickness and dimensions can be customized to meet specific project needs, ensuring optimal safety for each application.
