Transportation research record, 1996•journals.sagepub.comThe safety performance of a 737-mm (29-in.)-high open concrete bridge railing was
evaluated. The evaluation included four full-scale crash tests, investigating two critical
impact locations where structural failure was most likely to occur. Each impact location was
evaluated with a single-unit truck and a ballasted pickup truck. The safety performance of the
737-mm-high open concrete bridge rail was shown to meet the Performance Level 2
requirements specified in the AASHTO Guide Specifications for Bridge Railings (1989).
