Please note, inline with the Austroads transition to MASH compliant systems, this terminal may no longer approved for new installs in your jurisdiction, please consult your local Ingal Civil representative for further direction. For a fully compliant MASH TL3 and TL2 guardrail end-terminal, please refer to our ET-SS system.
The TREND-350 is a guardrail end-terminal designed to absorb the kinetic energy of an impacting vehicle on the end of a road safety barrier. Upon frontal impacts within NCHRP 350 criteria, the TREND™ 350 absorbs energy by creating friction between the guardrail panels and deformation of the rail sections as they slide rearward over the adjoining panels. During design side impacts, the yielding posts laterally support the rail sections, smoothly redirecting the impacting vehicle.The terminal is designed to reduce the problems associated with impacting vehicles, such as spearing, vaulting and roll over.
The TREND-350 is fully compliant to NCHRP-350 Test Level 3 as a gating re-directive energy absorbing terminal (GREAT). The system is 11.4m long and is suitable for speeds up to 100km/h. The point of need located at Post 3.
