Development of maintenance-free highway safety appurtenances Carney, John F III
Publication details: Washington DC Strategic Highway Research Program, 1993; SHRP-H-640, Description: 85 sSubject(s): Online resources: Bibl.nr: VTI P1409:640Location: Abstract: Describes a series of laboratory tests of high molecular weight/high density polyethylene tubes for suitability in use as highway safety appurtenances. Concludes that they are both effective and reusable. The report suggests that impact attenuation devices made of the polymer are potentially maintenance free, and it recommends further design fabrication and testing of such devices.Holdings: VTI P1409:640
