Abstract:

Steel-wood combination guardrail is a kind of environment-friendly and harmonious highway ancillary structure. It can provide comfortable and superior experience for highway users. At present, there is no steel-wood combination guardrail qualified for 160kj protection level of highway barriers in China. The Development of New Steel Backing Wood Landscape Guardrail takes reliability, economical efficiency, convenience of construction into account. The researchers optimize structure by computer simulation. This guardrail eventually passed the full-scale impact test with real vehicle. The test proves that it can become a model applied on the actual scenic highway.
