W-Beam Safety Barrier
Ingal Malaysia offer a wide range of guardrail systems in accordance with JKR/SIRIM standards and specifications. These highway safety systems typically consist of a w-beam rail and this is usually supported by a C or U profile post.
As the world’s most widely specified road safety barrier, the w-beam is in accordance to American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) M180.
Guardrail barriers provide semi-rigid protection to shield motorists from hazards located close to the edge of the traveled way. The most common guardrail system consists of a steel w-beam rail (also known as armco) on steel posts with end treatments and transitions of various designs using similar materials.
The full system of w-beam guardrail and steel post and blocking piece (e.g., W-beam and U-Post system, as shown in the photo) is classified as a semi-rigid barrier.
