Abstract

This research aimed to quantify the safety hazards posed by placing rigid objects in the zone of intrusion by attaching them to a typical rigid, longitudinal barrier. Specifically, the article evaluates the safety performance of a luminaire pole attached to both the top of and directly behind a single-slope concrete barrier when full-scale vehicle crash tested according to TL-4 criteria presented in NCHRP Report No. 350.
