What is a Rolling Barrier, and what makes them the safest type of barrier?
In this article, you will find a detailed explanation of Safety Roller Barrier, in which you will find everything you need to know, in addition to the proof of the efficiency of these barriers at the end of the article.
What is the Rolling Barrier Barriers System?
Guardrail barriers are the most famous types of barriers and are common on all types of roads. Rolling Barrier is a developed type of these barriers, as rolling barriers came with a different design that gave the barriers a higher ability to absorb shocks and thus superior protection for passengers.
They are known as Rolling Barriers as they consist of a set of cylindrical rollers lined up next to each other along the barrier, which is considered the most important part of the barrier and the main factor in absorbing shocks and enhancing traffic safety.
What are the components of the Rolling Barrier?
As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the most important part of a rolling barrier is the rollers. However, the two rails in the barrier play a major role in stabilizing the rollers and the barrier when the car hits the barrier.
We’ll discuss the details of each part below
The Two Rails
The rolling barrier rails are durable in stabilizing the rollers and are of high quality and long life, which helps the rollers to perform their role effectively and efficiently.
The Rollers
1At Shawahid Industrial Roads Co., knowing the important role of barrier rollers in achieving the highest level of traffic safety, we have taken care of every part of the rollers. We designed the rollers from highly flexible materials and provided the rollers with two sheets of reflective films with a high degree of reflectivity.
Here’s how a Rolling Guardrail works
Mechanics of the Rolling Barrier
A Rolling Barrier improves traffic safety in several ways:
In case of night driving
At night, visibility is poor, which increases the likelihood of swerving or crashing, so the role of the barrier in this case is to enhance visibility through reflective films on the rollers. When the car’s light falls on the rollers, they reflect the light, making the road and the barrier clear to the driver, reducing the chance of accidents or collisions.
In case of deviation from the road
When the car hits the barrier, especially the barrier rollers, the elastic material from which the rollers are made absorbs most of the impact energy so that there is no impact on the driver or passengers, and then the rollers rotate around their axis in the direction the car took at the time of impact, until they redirect the car to the correct path again.
Thus, traffic safety is achieved by preserving the lives of drivers and passengers as well as keeping the road safe without disasters.
Why is Shawahid’s Rolling Barrier the safest?
Shawahid Industrial Roads Company took care of every detail in the rolling barriers from the beginning of the design until manufacturing and installation, we have chosen the best raw materials in the manufacture of rollers and the entire barrier, as well as after manufacturing, we tested the barrier in international crash labs, which proved the efficiency of the system and its ability to absorb shocks and achieve traffic safety at the highest level.
