Parapets

Saferoad offers various parapets. A vehicle-restraining parapet is an independent construction that is able to turn vehicles. This must be tested EN 1317 with a containment level of H4b, H2 or N1 in accordance with the guidelines and the situation on site.

In the case of a crossing overlying infrastructure of national highways (motorway), an H2 containment level must always be applied. Since according to EN-1317 a higher retaining capacity covers a lower retaining capacity, an H2 level is also sufficient in the case of a prescribed H1, N1 or T1 level.

The vehicle-restraining parapets that Saferoad offers are CE marked and tested in accordance with EN 1317-2 and can be used instead of the RWS reinforced parapet. The parapets are characterised by the fact that the design of the elements has been carefully considered. The parapets will therefore not look out of place on your artwork. The parapet systems are all modular and all kinds of facilities and options are available. The various systems can also often be connected to each other smoothly in order to provide a solution for various road situations. Colours are according to the customer's wishes and are applied over the thermally galvanised outer layer.
