About this file
This document is a set of standard drawings for guardrail and roadway infrastructure installation from the Utah Department of Transportation. The drawings cover multiple technical specifications for guardrail systems, including W-beam guardrail hardware, steel and wood posts, terminal sections, cable releasing terminals, and installation details. Key components include detailed technical diagrams for:
- Midwest Guardrail System (MGS) panels with specific measurements for post spacing, bolt configurations, and panel dimensions. The drawings provide precise installation guidance for different guardrail scenarios, including wood and steel posts, approach transitions, and end treatments. Specifications include galvanized hardware, post markings, and installation requirements that comply with AASHTO standards and MASH (Manual for Assessing Safety Hardware) compliance. Additional details cover installation angles, post lengths, and grading requirements for various roadway conditions and traffic speeds.

Dana Cork Sticky Note Can we add the crash test data for this railing. The standard it meets (AASHTO MASH, NCHRP, etc.) and the test level. If it meets MASH is that 2009 or 2016.? If it meets NCHRP which report? Basically, I want to look at this drawing and be able to determine how to code SNBI item B.RH.02 for the transition railing.
