Purpose: The QuadTrend 350 is an end treatment for 2 feet-8 inch high concrete barriers. The system's short length allows it to be used at the ends of bridges where the installation of a beam guardrail transition and terminal is not feasible. Description: This system consists of telescoping quadruple corrugated fender panels mounted on steel breakaway posts. Functionality: Sand-filled boxes attached to the posts dissipate a portion of the energy of an impact. An anchored cable installed behind the fender panels directs the vehicle away from the barrier end. Foundation: The system is installed on a concrete foundation to support the steel posts. Slope: A 6H:1V or flatter slope is required behind the barrier to allow for vehicle recovery. Manufacturer/Supplier: Energy Absorption Systems |
