The study consisted of strength analyses of five in-service bridge railing systems, thirty full-scale vehicle crash tests on those railing systems and on a load measuring wall, the development of recommended design guidelines and development of recommended performance standards. The spectrum of vehicles addressed ranged from an 1,800 lb Honda sedan to a 32,000 l intercity bus. This report consists of four volumes.
