Full-scale experimental crash tests are important to determine the occupant risk factors and
understand barrier system behaviour in vehicle-barrier impacts. Due to the expensive and …

Experimental and numerical investigations were conducted on impact performance and
deflection of precast, portable concrete construction barrier, referred to as a portable …

The most important mechanical factors in an impact scenario of a vehicle into a concrete
safety barrier are vehicle speed, the impact angle, the static stability factor of the vehicle as …

The numerical simulation for a new type of precast concrete barrier for viaducts is carried out
systematically. To obtain an accurate representation of the damage state of the concrete …

This paper presents a numerical study on the impact performance of reinforced concrete
(RC) fences strengthened with high-strength strain-hardening cementitious composite (HS …

This paper presents a new portable concrete barrier (NPCB) design that can be placed in
areas where vehicles may not enter. The proposed design is fabricated with a new shape …

Single-post sign supports are commonly used near to roadways. Signs can assume various
configurations, yet few full-scale crash tests have been conducted to date to investigate …

Road construction often requires that work zones be created and shielded by portable
concrete barriers (PCBs) to protect workers and equipment from errant vehicles as well as to …

Portable concrete barriers (PCBs) are commonly used to protect work-zone personnel and
to shield motorists from hazards in construction areas. It is not uncommon to encounter …

Portable concrete barriers (PCBs) are often used in applications in which limited deflection
is desired during vehicle impacts, such as bridge decks and work zones. In an earlier study …
