Abstract

Calculation procedures to assess the potential of proposed designs of flexible bridge railings are reported. These procedures were derived to provide guidance for initial evaluation of flexible bridge railings intended to safely contain impacting vehicles ranging from subcompacts to large single-unit trucks. Limited validation cases of this calculation method are presented.
