ACP Sentry Barrier W Beam System - Longitudinal Barrier

The ACP Sentry Barrier W Beam System is a roadside w-beam guardrail system suitable for containing, redirecting and shielding vehicles from roadside obstacles. The barrier has been designed and tested to meet the evaluation criteria of MASH Test Level 3 for a longitudinal barrier. This is the current state of the art performance criteria, exceeding the requirements of NCHRP 350 Test Level 3.

Features:

• MASH Test Level 3 compliant as a permanent Longitudinal Barrier system
• AS3845: 2015 compliant and recommended for acceptance by the Austroads Safety Barrier Assessment Panel
• Lesser components, weight and footprint than conventional public domain guardrail systems
• Superior dynamic deflection results with added testing on a zero offset to the batter hinge
• Conventional ‘C’ shaped post but shorter , smaller and lighter then public domain versions
• No block out, stiffener or bracket between rail and post connection
• Large flexibility and tolerance in system height  to accommodate easy transitioning
• Easily capable of transitioning into W-Beam, Thrie-Beam, Public domain and Proprietary terminals
• Crash tested and recommended for use with an X-Tensional End Terminal
