Axial tensile strength of thrie and W-beam terminal connectors.Final report;The objectives of this study were to develop safer bridge rail and transition designs and to improve design guidelines. Ten bridge railings and two transitions were designed, tested, and evaluated in accordance with American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) requirements. The railings were designed using ultimate strength procedures and collision forces from earlier research. Design procedures, railing designs, and test results are presented. All designs demonstrated acceptable collision performance.Performed by Texas Transportation Institute, and sponsored by Office of Safety & Traffic Operations R & D, Federal Highway Administration.

Testing and evaluation of the W-beam transition (on steel posts with timber blockouts) to the vertical flared back concrete bridge parapet / by Mak, King K.(CARDINAL)312185; Menges, Wanda L.(CARDINAL)311204; United States.Federal Highway Administration.Office of Safety and Traffic Operations Research and Development.(CARDINAL)172825; Texas Transportation Institute.(CARDINAL)324243;
Includes bibliographical references (page 57).Introduction -- Study approach -- Crash test results -- Summary of findings and conclusions -- Appendix A: FHWA technical advisory no. T 5040.26 -- References.Draft final report;The crash test reported herein was performed in an effort to evaluate a modified W-beam transition design (on steel posts with timber blockouts) to the vertical flared back concrete bridge parapet according to NCHRP Report 350 guidelines. The crash test performed corresponded to NCHRP Report 350 test designation 3-11 involving a 2000P test vehicle impacting the transition at a nominal speed and angle of 100 km/h and 25 degrees.Sponsored by Office of Safety & Traffic Operations R&D, under contract no.

NCHRP report 350 compliance test 5-12 of the 1.07-m vertical wall bridge railing / by Alberson, Dean.(CARDINAL)325696; Zimmer, Richard A.(CARDINAL)325695; Menges, Wanda L.(CARDINAL)311204; United States.Federal Highway Administration.Office of Safety and Traffic Operations Research and Development.(CARDINAL)172825; Texas Transportation Institute.(CARDINAL)324243;
Includes bibliographical references (page 49).Introduction -- Study approach -- Crash test results -- Summary of findings and conclusions -- Appendix A: Vehicle accelerometer traces -- References.Final report;The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) recently adopted new performance evaluation guidelines for roadside safety features set forth in NCHRP Report 350. This report contains the results of a crash test performed on the 1.07-m vertical wall bridge railing with a 36000V test vehicle under NCHRP Report 350 test level 5 conditions, i.e., impacting the length of need at a nominal speed and angle of 80 km/h and 15 degrees. The purpose of the test was to determine if the bridge railing would perform satisfactorily in containing and redirecting the heavy vehicle without rolling the vehicle.Performed by the Texas Transportation Institute for the Office of Safety & Traffic Operations R & D, under contract no.

AASHTO LRFD bridge design guide specifications for GFRP-reinforced concrete bridge decks and traffic railings. by American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials.(CARDINAL)138446;
Includes bibliographical references.Section 1. Introduction -- Section 2. Bridge decks -- Section 3. Railings -- Section 4. Material specifications -- Section 5. Construction specifications.Glass fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) materials have emerged as an alternative material for producing reinforcing bars for concrete structures. GFRP reinforcing bars offer advantages over steel reinforcement due to their noncorrosive nature and nonconductive behavior. Due to other differences in the physical and mechanical behavior of GFRP materials as opposed to steel, unique guidance on the engineering and construction of concrete bridge decks reinforced with GFRP bars is needed. These guide specifications offer a description of the unique material properties of GFRP composite materials as well as provisions for the design and construction of concrete bridge decks and railings reinforced with GFRP reinforcing bars.
