Variable Profile CSB / WCSB
Variable Concrete Step Barrier or VCSB and Variable Wide Concrete Step Barrier (VWCSB) are fully compliant with EN1317 and provides the following performance levels:-
· Containment / Working Width – VCSB, N2 / W1 and H2 / W2 performance
· Containment / Working Width VWCSB, N2 / W3 and H2 / W3 performance
· ASI Class – B
The variable profile is a development of the standard fixed profile barriers for use in the central reserve where adjacent carriageways are constructed at different levels.
Variable profile barrier overcomes the need to provide twin lengths of barrier one servicing each carriageway as is the case with any other safety restraint system.
Uniquely the sides of Britpave variable profile concrete barrier are aligned to suit the road surface level of each carriageway so that the relationship between the step profile and the road is maintained.
Britpave variable profile barrier can accommodate an adjacent carriageway level difference of up to 300mm; above this twin barriers must be used.
Britpave variable profile barrier is available in both CSB and WCSB in the event that street lighting is required along the central reserve
Extrudakerb are experts in the field of designing and constructing variable profile concrete barrier and operate the large 4-track paving machines that are required to carry the heavy, complex variable barrier moulds.
Extrudakerb are the only slipform paving contractor in the world that design and fabricate its own variable profile paving moulds. This allows all the lessons learnt on the construction site to be incorporated in new and unique future mould design.
A success that is truly “built on innovation”.
