INNOVATION

As an industry leader in the guardrail and end treatment business,

Trinity Highway Products makes certain that several important

steps in manufacturing outstanding highway products are taken.

DEVELOPMENT

Utilizing a diverse group of outside investors

and transportation research institutions andthe latest available technology, Trinity

Highway Products is able to offer exciting

new products, to include energy absorbing

devices that are accepted for use worldwide.

ACCEPTANCE

By working closely with each states Depart-

ment of Transportation and toll road au-

thority, Trinity Highway Products sales and

marketing teams are available to aid in the

product approval and specification process.

Once approved, specified and let, we begin

the manufacturing process in one of our sev-

eral highway safety manufacturing facilities.

EVALUATION

Trinity Highway Products uses severalindependent test facilities to conduct the

crash tests for product approval required

by the Federal Highway Administration.

Each product must meet the requirements

of NCHRP-350. Test results are then pre-

sented to the Federal Highway Administra-

tion for review and acceptance to use on

the National Highway System.

CRASH CUSHIONS

TRACC FAMILY

The Trinity Attenuating Crash Cushions Family (TRACC Family) feature a complete line of re-di

available in a variety of lengths for a variety of highway speeds. The 14 - 3 (4.3 m) SHORTRACC

(7.9 m) FASTRACC and the variable width/length WIDETRACC come fully assembled

for fast and cost-effective installation.

Trinity Highway Products manufactures the TRACC Family with galvanized, all-steel

construction that reduce concern of product deterioration from the suns ultra-violet rays and

extends service life with minimal maintenance by end users. Interchangeable components

facilitate swift and inexpensive repairs for state and federal departments of transportation.

The TRACC Family of crash cushions includes TRACC, a narrow Test Level 3 cushion;

SHORTRACC, a narrow Test Level 2 cushion; FASTRACC, a narrow Test Level 3 crash cushi

impacts up to 70 mph (113 kph). The WIDETRACC is available in varying lengths, widths and

INNOVATIVE CABLE SAFETY SYSTEM

CASS

CASS assists in re-directing errant vehicles that would otherwise traverse the median of

a roadway. The unique post employs a proprietary wave-shaped slot, which works in tan-

dem with strategically positioned cables to increase the systems ability to restrain various

types of vehicles that impact the system within the criteria of the NCHRP Report 350.

The proprietary shape of the post allows for lower deflections during crash tests by mini-

mizing the length of unsupported cables. Additionally, the widened cable spread works to

retain different types of vehicles.

Features

Three-cable (pre-stretched or standard) high-tension system.

No sharp edges or hooks in 6:1 slope systems.

Wave-shaped slot in post results in lower deflections.

Option of NCHRP Report 350 Cable Terminal or non-350 Cable Anchor.

Aesthetically pleasing design with no interwoven cables.

NCHRP Report 350 Test Level 3 and Test Level 4 compliant.


Posts can be driven or placed into steel sleeves (set in soil, asphalt or concrete).

Pre-stretched and tensioned cables require no maintenance by end-users.

Cables provided in convenient pre-assembled 1000 lengths (305 meters). No interwoven cables.

Minimal maintenance and quick repair after impact by end-users.

Rail sections specified to be installed on curves having a radius of 5 feet (1.5m) to 150 feet

(45.7m) can be curved in our fabricating facilities prior to delivery.

Rail can be curved either convex or concave as required. Terms convex or concave refer

to the direction curved, outward or inward, relative to the traffic face of the rail.

The diagrams & chart provide data for locating posts and curves. For assistance, please

contact our Sales Offices.

TO FIND THE RADIUS FOR A CURVED RAIL:

A RailCloth Tape

B6-3

C12-6

Traffic Face

STEP 1: Starting at the last post in the straight run (point A), lay cloth

tape along the path that the curved guard rail will follow.

STEP 2: Mark-off two points along the curved cloth tape: One at 63,

or 1905 mm (point B) and the second at 12-6 or 3810 mm (point C).

STEP 3: Pull string directly from starting point (point A) to the second

mark-off point (point C).

STEP 4: Measure from the first mark-off point (point B) over to the

mid-point of the taut string. This measurement (D) is the Rise.

STEP 5: Check the chart to find the Radius (R), given the Rise (D). Exam-

ple: a Rise of 4 inches (102 mm) would result in a radius of 60 feet (18.3 m).

Note: Follow the steps above for each piece of rail section in the curved run. The arcmay not be consistent and each consecutive piece of rail may differ in radius from

the previous one. Please consult with an individual approved by the governmental

authority specifying and supervising the installation of the guardrail.
