A crash barrier system with a low working width ensures optimum safety on bridges and viaducts. Find out more about half step barrier systems from Steel Constructions. Safe, maintenance-friendly and aesthetically pleasing.
Its low working width (W1) makes the half step barrier structure the ideal solution for bridges and viaducts. The solid rail provides passing vehicles with a high level of protection against the wind. In the event of a crash, the half step barrier will cause virtually no damage to the bridge or viaduct. Its smooth finish also keeps the damage to the step barrier itself to a minimum.
Half step barriers from Steel Constructions will last for many years and are therefore durable and also maintenance-friendly. Our half step barrier systems are fully complete. They are also galvanized in accordance with NEN-EN-ISO 1461 and tested in accordance with NEN-EN 1317.
Rigid construction
Appearance is important too. The rigid construction of the half step barrier makes this crash barrier system an attractive proposition for a wide range of projects. There is a reason why architects like working with half step barriers: the almost seamless transition from a half step barrier structure to a half step barrier plinth and then to a rigid construction appeals to the imagination.
If necessary, our half step barriers can be fitted with handrails if a certain height is prescribed. The step barriers are also available with anti-glare screens.
