1. Types & Applications
Highway Guardrails : Crash-resistant (W-beam, Thrie-beam)
Urban Road Guardrails: Decorative & safety (Z-bar, PVC-coated)
Temporary Barriers : Plastic or steel, for construction zones
2.Common Materials Galvanized Steel – Most common for highways
Aluminum Alloy – Lightweight, corrosion-resistant
PVC-Coated Steel – Urban roads (aesthetic + anti-rust)
3. Main Dimensions (1) Highway Guardrails (W-beam, Thrie-beam)
Height: 1200mm–2500mm (standard: 2000mm)
Thickness: 2.5mm–5.0mm (corrugated steel)
Post : Shape: Round (Φ60mm)
Spacing : 2m–4m (adjustable based on length)
(2) Urban Road Guardrails
Height: 1200mm–2500mm (standard: 2000mm)
Panel Width : 2m–3m Post Size : 80×80mm or 100×100mm (square steel) Mesh : Vertical Bar Spacing : ≤110mm (for safety)
Wire Diameter : Φ2.5mm–Φ5.0mm
4. Surface Treatment Hot-dip galvanizing : ≥600g/m² (for highways)
Powder coating : Urban roads (colors: white, green, blue)
PVC coating : Extra corrosion protection
5. Crash Ratings | Standard | Application | Impact Resistance |
| A-level | Highways | 160kJ+ (heavy vehicles) |
| B-level | Urban expressways | 100–160kJ | C-level | Local roads | ≤100kJ |
