Abstract

This report presents a design procedure for roadside barrier systems mounted on the edge of a mechanically stabilized earth (MSE) wall. The procedures were developed following AASHTO Load Resistant Factor Design (LRFD) practices. The report will be of particular interest to personnel responsible for the structural design of MSE walls. Appendices A through H to NCHRP Report 663 are available online at http://onlinepubs.trb.org/onlinepubs/nchrp/nchrp_rpt_663Appendixes.pdf. (Author/publisher)
