The objective of the project was to develop and crash test bridge railings and approach railing transitions for longitudinal wood bridge decks. The bridge railings and approach railing were completed in accordance with AASHTO Performance Level 1 (PL-1) and Performance Level 2 (PL-2) requirements and are described in the cited reports. One bridge railing was also tested to the requirements of NCHRP Report 350, Test Level 4 (TL-4). Approach railings were tested or adapted from previous testing in accordance with NCHRP Report 230. For the convenience of the user, full drawing sets have been provided in customary U.S. and SI units. The testing procedures, results, and drawings have been approved by the Federal Highway Administration Federal-Aid and Design Office for use on Federal-aid highway projects.
