Abstract:
Two median barrier end treatment designs (type 3G and 3F) were submitted by the Colorado Department of Highways (CDH) to the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI). After analysis and evaluation, TTI tested the type 3F end treatment design with four crash tests, modifying the design in the process. The final design was deemed acceptable for use on an experimental basis in areas where W-beam guardrails meet in the middle of divided highways.
