How Rolling Barrier Guard Rails Improve Highway Safety

How does this guardrail work? we describes it as a “next-generation guardrail which combines rotating barrels made from the energy-absorbing co-polymer ethylene-vinyl acetate, with a proprietary steel guardrail to create the world’s safest roadside and median barrier.” In other words, it reduces the impact of a crashing vehicle by absorbing the shock.

Working mechanism of Rolling Barriers
They consist of both flexible property and semi rigid property of barrier stiffness. RB are different in mechanisms than the other types of normal barriers. It also reduces the hazard and road accidents.
Urethane has become the material of choice in so many of today’s performance driven applications because it illustrate extraordinary physical and mechanical properties that other material simply can’t
match.
Roller Barriers absorbing the collision shock in three points, the barrel, the buffering bracket, and the liquidity of the rail shocking mechanism. The shock energy absorb from a curved crash is absorbs then the shock is converting in a rotational energy. Shock energy absorbs the gain by its upper and lower safety guard rail. Shock energy will be again by the back side of safety rails.
Finally the safety roller barriers will leave the cover back to the lane. Thus, this decreases the car damage and ensures the safety of drivers and passenger in the vehicles. Besides strong resilience and
shock energy absorbing capacity of RB the cost and maintenance of repair significantly less, this is another economic advantage of this technology.

The Rolling Barriers is highly visible with a noticeable colour and self-luminescence which alerts drivers – especially at night - to the danger of that particular curve or stretch of road. The system can be used as a median barrier or roadside barrier.

Upon impact by a vehicle, the barrels rotate to convert shock energy from the vehicle into rotational energy. This propels the vehicle forward back onto the road instead of crashing through the barrier or becoming entangled in a destroyed barrier system.
