(54) | Safety barrier for road embankments |
(57) Sheet-steel road safety barrier with a profile of a New Jersey type, adapted to be
installed on road embankments. The barrier is formed by modular elements, each one
of which is constituted by a cover wall (10) made of folded sheet-steel and provided
with a rear longitudinal reinforcing rib (11). The elements are fixed to vertical beams (12) that are stuck deep in the ground and are linked with each other by means of longitudinal tension rods (14). The beams are provided with plates (15, 16) in their portion sticking in the ground. The barrier is effectively anchored to the ground and provides a high extent of integration of its component parts. |
