The QuadGuard II System is a highly efficient,redirective, non-gating crash cushion for hazardsranging in width from 610 mm to 3200 mm (2' to10.5'). It consists of crushable, energy-absorbingcartridges surrounded by a framework ofQuad-BeamTM panels.

The QuadGuard II System utilizes two types of cartridgesin a "staged” configuration to address both lighter carsand heavier, high center-of-gravity vehicles. Its modulardesign allows the system length to be tailored to the de-sign speed of a site. Refer to Table A on page 9 to deter-mine the appropriate length system for a given designspeed.

I. I. I. I. I. GENERALGENERALGENERALGENERALGENERALAll QuadGuard II Systems are designed and manufactured by Energy Absorption Systems, Incorporated, ofChicago, Illinois.

II. II. II. II. II. DESCRIPTION OF SYDESCRIPTION OF SYDESCRIPTION OF SYDESCRIPTION OF SYDESCRIPTION OF SYSSSSSTEMTEMTEMTEMTEMA. General

The QuadGuard II System consists of energy absorbing cartridges surrounded by a framework of steelQuad-beam guardrail, which can telescope rearward during head-on impacts. The QuadGuard II Systemhas a center monorail, which will resist lateral movement during side angle impacts, and a backup,which will resist movement during head-on impacts. The nose consists of a steel nose wrap and anenergy-absorbing cartridge. Transitions are available and may be required depending on site condi-tions.

B. Component Descriptions

1. A bay describes a section of the QuadGuard II System consisting of an energy absorbing cartridge,a diaphragm, two fender panels and fasteners.

a. There are two types of cartridges, referred to as Type I and Type II. The front portion of thesystem is fitted with Type I cartridges. The rear of the system is fitted with Type II cartridges.The outside of each cartridge is fabricated from a weather resistant plastic. The actual quantityof each is determined by the system design speed.

b. The diaphragms are made from 10 gauge, steel Quad-Beam sections. Two support legs arewelded to the Quad-Beam. Ski-shaped plates are welded to the bottom of the support legs. Thediaphragms are designed to lock onto, and be guided by a ground-mounted, center monorailsupport structure.(The 24”, 30”, 36 and 48” wide systems require the use of monorail stabi-lizer plates bolted between the diaphragm and rail guide.

c. The fender panels are fabricated from 10 gauge steel Quad-Beam sections. The rear of eachfender panel (the panel end furthest from the nose of the assembled system) is tapered to helpmaximize performance during wrong-way, redirective impacts. Each fender panel is drilled andslotted in accordance with the manufacturer's specifications so that when assembled in thefield, the front end (the end closest to the nose of the assembled system) is bolted to a dia-phragm or hinge plate (depending on width of system) by means of 5/8" bolts. The rear of eachQuad-beam fender panel overlaps the next rearward fender panel and is connected to thediaphragm or hinge plate of the next bay by means of a bolt and "mushroom" washer. The boltfits through the long horizontal slot in the forward fender panel. This permits the movement,front to back, of one set of fender panels relative to the panels in the underlying, next rearwardbay. For QuadGuard II Systems, the mushroom bolt assembly is held in place by a compressionspring, which allows limited separation of the fender panels during an impact.

because the QuadGuard II cz may be permanently in-stalled on a prepared site. When there is no longer aneed for temporary site protection, or when the con-struction job is finished, the QuadGuard II cz can be per-manently installed.

because the QuadGuard II cz is crush efficient. Car-tridges offer exceptional energy absorbing efficiency.With variable design lengths systems can be tailoredto meet your design criteria. The QuadGuard II cz of-fers the best size/efficiency ratio of any impact attenu-ator. Thus, the shortest system possible for a givendesign speed can be installed. This increases driverdecision distance and reduces the likelihood of thesystem being hit.

because the QuadGuard II cz meets your needs fortemporary protection at most construction sites.Whether it be the end of unfinished median barriers,bridge piers, temporary or permanent safety walls, lightposts, or numerous other types of hazards. As withthe permanent QuadGuard II System, the system sizeshould be chosen so that the width and length are nolarger than necessary.

The QuadGuard II cz must be properly anchored. Re-fer to Page 12 for the recommended anchorage forvarious foundations.

QuadGuard II cz Design CriteriaQuadGuard II cz Design CriteriaQuadGuard II cz Design CriteriaQuadGuard II cz Design CriteriaQuadGuard II cz Design CriteriaThe portable compact crash cushion for construc-tion zones. The QuadGuard II cz is available in thesame narrow sizes as permanent systems.

A wise choice...

because the Construction Zone QuadGuard(QuadGuard II cz) provides the same lifesavingefficiency and features of the permanentQuadGuard II System. The QuadGuard II cz is de-signed to redirect vehicles hitting the system alongthe side. After a typical design speed head on impactthe majority of the system can be used again. Thesystem can usually be repaired by pulling it back intoplace and replacing the Nose and Cartridges. (Depend-ing on the foundation a QuadGuard II cz may need tobe reset after impact.)

because the QuadGuard II cz is easy to transport. Thesystem can be pre-assembled away from the job site.When the need arises, the QuadGuard II cz, can be po-sitioned at the impact site with the aid of a 2 ton liftingdevice.

because installation of the QuadGuard II cz usuallyrequires little site preparation. Both the lifting platformand steel backup are integral parts of the QuadGuard IIcz so the installation of anchor bolts is usually all that isnecessary.

Quad-Beam End ShoeTransition PanelThe Quad-Beam End Shoe Panel transitions the Quad-Guard II System to vertical faced concrete structureswhether it is a concrete backup or concrete barrier wall,see Page 15. An Extended End Shoe is also available.In cases where the corners of the hazard are not cham-fered it may be necessary to add wheel deflectors tothe structure in order to prevent wheel snagging.

Quad-Beam to GuardrailTransition Panel(W-beam and Thrie-Beam)The Quad-Beam to W-beam and Quad-Beam to Thrie-Beam Transition Panels transition the QuadGuard IISystem to new and existing runs of standard guard-rail, see Page 15.

Quad-Beam to Safety BarrierTransition PanelThere are several options available when transitioning theQuadGuard II System to safety shape barrier depend-ing on the shape and position of the barrier.

When transitioning to barriers with a "New Jersey" styleprofile, the 4" offset transition panel is most commonlyused, see Page 15. For transitioning to barriers thatare in line with the side of the system, use transitionassembly 354018L or R. For transitioning a wide sys-tem to barrier that runs parallel to the centerline of thesystem, transition assembly 354042L or R is used. A9" offset transition panel is also available fortransitioning to barriers that are in line with the side ofthe system.

When transitioning to Single Slope style barriers andparapets, 6" and 8" offset transition panels are avail-able. For transitioning a wide system to barrier thatruns parallel to the centerline of the system, a 6" off-set panel is available.

How do you determinethe transition panel offset?The Transition Panel Offset is determined by measuringthe distance between the face of the barrier and the topedge of the backup diaphragm at 32" above ground level,see Figure 7. Remember, when installing theQuadGuard II System that the correct transition paneloffset must be achieved in order for the offset bracketto nest between the barrier and transition panel en-suring proper performance of the transition.

MP-3 poly-ester anchor bolts will be supplied for all required an-chorages in concrete. Refer to QuadGuard II Installa-tion Manual, or MP-3 kits for detailed installation in-structions.

1) Is the system to be placed on existing concrete?

Existing concrete - Concrete must be at least150 mm [6"] thick, reinforced 28 MPa [4000 psi]Portland cement concrete (P.C.C.), or 200 mm [8"]thick non-reinforced 28 MPa [4000 psi] P.C. Con-crete Roadway, measuring at least 3.66 m [12’-0”] wide by 15.24 m [50’-0”] long. The concreteshould be in good condition and be free of majorcracks.

New concrete - If existing concrete does not meetthese criteria, a new concrete pad must be placed toproperly secure the system. See concrete pad de-tails supplied with the system.

2) Is there a cross slope at the installation site?

Cross slope exists - If there is a cross slope of morethan 8% (5 deg.), or if the cross slope varies (twists)more than 2% (1 deg.) over the length of the sys-tem, a concrete leveling pad may be required.(See Figure 12)

No Cross slope - No additional action is required.

The QuadGuard II System is considered to be reusable.After most design impacts, you can expect to reuse 65 -70% of the system. The system must be inspected aftereach impact and must be pulled out to its original length.Depending on the impact, components may get damagedand need replacement.

Estimated time for MaintenanceEstimated time for MaintenanceEstimated time for MaintenanceEstimated time for MaintenanceEstimated time for MaintenanceAn experienced two person crew with the proper tools andspare parts should be able to complete the work in one to 3hours depending on the damage done to the system.

Life ExpectancyLife ExpectancyLife ExpectancyLife ExpectancyLife ExpectancyEnvironment

Except due to impact damage, it is anticipated that the car-tridges will survive in a highway environment for a periodranging from 10 to 15 years from the date of installation.

Impacts

Life expectancy is also dependent on the impacts. This in-cludes:

1. The number of impacts

2. The severity of the impacts

3. The temperature at the time of the impacts

Systems must be inspected after each impact. Any car-tridge that is crushed or otherwise damaged should be re-placed and the system should be pulled out to its originallength.

IMPORTANT: After an impact, always follow the“Post-Impact Instructions” in the maintenance andrepair section of the installation manual.

Recycling InformationRecycling InformationRecycling InformationRecycling InformationRecycling InformationWhen parts need to be replaced, it is recommended thatthe old parts be recycled as follows:

Steel should be sold as scrap to a local metal recycler.

Plastic from the cartridges should be sold to a plastic recy-cler if available. If a recycler is unavailable, dispose of thematerial as plastic refuse.

Limitations and Limitations and Limitations and Limitations and Limitations and WWWWWarningsarningsarningsarningsarnings

Energy Absorption Systems, Inc., in compliance with theNational Cooperative Research Highway Program 350(NCHRP Report 350) “Recommended Procedures for theSafety Performance of Highway Safety Features”, con-tracts with FHWA approved testing facilities to performcrash tests, evaluation of tests, and submittal of resultsto the Federal Highway Administration for review.

The 5 bay QuadGuard II System has been tested andevaluated per the recommendations of the NCHRP 350Guidelines* for Test Level 3 (TL-3) terminals and crashcushions. These tests typically evaluate product per-formance by closely simulating actual impacts involv-ing a typical range of vehicles on roadways, from light-weight cars (approx. 820 kg [1800 lb.]) to full sizepickup trucks (approx. 2000 kg [4400 lb.]). A prod-uct can be certified for various speed levels.

TL-1: 50 km/h [31.10 mph]

TL-2: 70 km/h [43.49 mph]

TL-3: 100 km/h [62.13 mph]

These tests are not designed to represent the perfor-mance of products when impacted by every vehicletype or every impact condition.

Energy Absorption Systems, Inc. does not representnor warrant that the results of these controlled testsshow that vehicle impacts with the products in otherconditions would necessarily avoid injury to person(s)or property. Impacts that exceed the design capabili-ties of the product may not result in acceptable crashperformance as outlined in NCHRP Report 350, rela-tive to structural adequacy, occupant risk and vehicletrajectory. Energy Absorption Systems, Inc. expresslydisclaims any warranty or liability for injury or damageto persons or property resulting from any impact, col-lision, or harmful contact with products, other vehicles,or nearby hazards or objects by any vehicle, object orperson, whether or not the products were installed byor under the direction of Energy Absorption Systems,

Inc. or by third parties.

Impact conditions which differ from those describedin NCHRP 350 test matrix for non-gating, redirectingcrash cushions may result in different crash resultsthan those encountered in testing. Furthermore, im-pacts in excess of TL-3 impact severity, or the exist-ence (at the site of the installation) of curbs or crossslopes in excess of 8% may yield crash performancewhich does not meet NCHRP 350 evaluation criteriarelative to structural adequacy, occupant risk and ve-hicle trajectory factors.

The QuadGuard II System was designed to be installed,delineated, and maintained in accordance with Stateand Federal guidelines. It is important to select themost appropriate product configuration for a site. Thecustomer should be careful to properly select, installand maintain the product. Careful evaluation of the sitegeometry, vehicle population type, speed, traffic di-rection and visibility are some of the elements that re-quire evaluation in the proper selection of a safety ap-purtenance. For example, curbs could cause unsafevehicle trajectory.

After an impact occurs, the product should be restoredto its original condition as soon as possible. When a re-usable safety product is struck, it is still necessary to re-store the product to its original length and inspect all thecomponents for damage and repair and/or replace com-ponents as necessary.
