ROAD SAFETY AND SIGNAGE
ROAD SAFETY AND SIGNAGE
Type of Work
Chain Link Fence
A chain-link fencing (also referred to as wire netting, wire-mesh fence, chain-wire fence, cyclone fence, hurricane fence, or diamond-mesh fence) is a type of woven fence usually made from galvanized or LLDPE-coated steel wire. The wires run vertically and are bent into a zig-zag pattern that each “zig” hooks with the wire immediately on one side each “zag” with the wire immediately on the other. This forms the characteristics diamond pattern seen in this type of fence.
Decorative Fence
This system offers certified quality and lifetime, as the panels are made if galvanized wire, plastic coated afterwards with high adhesion. The complete system of several panel height and convenient posts, collets, accessories and gate offer a solution for all situations. This system can even be installed on a wall or concrete floor.
Ornamental Fence
Ornamental steel adds style and elegance to residential, commercial and industrial properties, like other fence products. Decorative metals have become increasingly durable and maintenance-free. Each Ornamental Fence Panel includes posts fabricated from steel & this Post drilled in concrete barrier during installation. This type of ornamental fence is earth-friendly hence supporting environmentally-friendly finishes.
Pedestrian Guard Rail
To reduce the potential for pedestrians to be involved in motor vehicle crashes, pedestrians are redirected to safer crossing locations or to where pedestrian facilities have been provided by means of pedestrian fencing. Each guardrail system also includes posts that are commonly fabricated from steel. These posts are often pre-drilled by the manufacturer and include the hardware for installation.
Animal Fence
This fence combined with high tensile horizontal wires to give increased strength with lower wire diameters. This reduces the rolling weight enables to increase the distance between the intermediate posts, resulting in a faster and cheaper installation.
Camel Grid
Animal Grid is a type of obstacle used to prevent livestock such as sheep, cattle, horses & Camel from passing along a road or railway which penetrates the fencing surrounding an enclosed piece of land or border. It consists of a depression in the road covered by a transverse grid of bars or tubes, normally made of metal and firmly fixed to the ground on either side of the depression, so that the gaps between them are wide enough for an animal's feet to enter, but sufficiently narrow not to impede a wheeled vehicle or human foot. This provides an effective barrier to animals without impeding wheeled vehicles, as the animals are reluctant to walk on the grates.
Guard Rail/ Safety Barrier/ Vehicle Restraint System
A vehicle restraint system is defined as any device, arranged longitudinally or occasionally in the margins or medium of a road, is to reduce the consequences of incidents caused by the uncontrolled departure of a vehicle driveway, replacing the eventual collision the vehicle against an obstacle, falling by an overpass or an invasion of a neighbor by a collision path, much more controlled against the system itself.
Vehicle Restraint Systems Restraint systems for vehicles are one of the most representative of passive elements for road safety Equipment.
Crash Cushion
The crash cushion is a device intended to reduce the damage to structures, vehicles, and motorists resulting from a motor vehicle collision. The Crash Cushions are designed to absorb the colliding vehicle's kinetic energy. They may also be designed to redirect the vehicle away from the hazard or away from roadway machinery and workers. Crash Cushion are usually placed in front of fixed structures near highways, such as gore points, crash barrier Starting Points, or overpass supports.
Signage
Traffic signs are signs erected at the side of or above roads to give instructions or provide information to road users. In general roadway use in urban and rural areas and explains the way they are used at conventional roadway intersections, expressway and freeway interchanges and ramps, and for auxiliary lanes.
The Traffic Signage are Manufactured in Excel Metal Industries as per Qatar Construction Specifications (QCS 2014) & Qatar Traffic Control Manual (QTCM).
And Installation will be done in required site location as per Project Specifications depend upon client requirements.
Its Structure
The steel-framed structures derive most of its competitive advantage from the virtues of prefabricated components, which can be assembled speedily at the site. Unlike concrete, which is usually a wet process conducted at the site, steel is produced and subsequently fabricated within a controlled environment. This ensures high quality, manufacture offsite with improved precision and enhanced speed of construction at the site.
The efficiency of fabrication and erection in structural steelwork dictates the success of any project involving steel-intensive construction. The fabrication and erection of structural steelwork has been out of the purview of the structural designer.
Bollards
Bollards can be used either to control traffic intake size by limiting movements or to control traffic speed by narrowing the available space. bollards at highway exits to control traffic also reduced accidents. Bollards intended for traffic-control purposes may be mounted near enough to each other that they block ordinary cars, for instance, but spaced widely enough to permit special-purpose vehicles and bicycles to pass through. Bollards may also be used to enclose car-free zones. Bollards and other street furniture are used to control overspill parking onto sidewalks and verges.
Bridge Parapet
Parapets on bridges and other highway structures prevent users from falling off where there is a drop. They may also be meant to restrict views, to prevent rubbish passing. Bridge parapets may be made from material, but Galvanized structural steel, aluminum. They may be of solid or framed construction. Parapets are defined as a sub-category of "vehicle restraint systems".
