This report contains the results from a series of four crash tests conducted at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) located at the Turner-Fairbank Highway Research Center (TFHRC) in McLean, Virginia. The tests were frontal crash tests involving 1981 through 1983 Honda Civic two-door sedans. Three Honda Civics impacted the FOIL's instrumented rigid pole and one impacted a single leg 6-kg/m (4-lb/ft) u-channel sign post embedded in strong soil. The objective of these tests was to provide crush characteristic data in support of a computer simulation effort to model a 1981 through 1983 Honda Civic. The results are presented as data plots of acceleration vs. time, velocity vs. time, displacement vs. time, force vs. displacement, and force vs. time. The data plots were derived from vehicle accelerometer data and rigid pole load cell data. The data from the three rigid pole tests serve as a good baseline for modeling the front-end crush of a Honda Civic. The one u-pose sign support test provides good data to help model the interaction between a Honda Civic and a small sign support mounted in strong soil.
