The evaluation of the myriad of potential effects of curbs adjacent to longitudinal barriers is a significant undertaking. Therefore, the objective of this research study was to study the effects of curb placement adjacement to a W-beam longitudinal barrier when impacted by a 3/4-ton pickup truck. A guardrail/curb combination was evaluated according to the Test Level 3 (TL-3) safety performance criteria provided in NCHRP Report No. 350.
