About this file
These are technical specifications for a Barricade System intended for use by FEMA Region IV under Solicitation #70FBR425Q00000080. The detailed specifications describe a hydraulically-operated security barrier system with specific technical requirements, including:
Key technical specifications include a barricade with a 39-inch height, 144-inch length, and 18-inch foundation depth, capable of stopping a 65,000-pound truck moving at 50 MPH. The system features high-speed emergency deployment (less than 1 second), U.S. Department of State crash test certification (K12 and K12-L3 ratings), and extensive operational capabilities, including the ability to perform over 1 million operational cycles. The system includes comprehensive control and logic circuits, a remote control panel with emergency fast operation features, and optional accessory equipment like an electro-mechanical signal gate and stop/go traffic lights. The solicitation requires a site visit on May 20, 2025, with vendors required to RSVP by May 16, 2025, and anticipates a six-month performance period from the award date, using a best-value contracting method.

SPECS
SECOND STRIKE CAPABILITY
The Barricade System has been tested in full scale configuration and has demonstrated its ability to stop and destroy a fast moving heavily loaded truck (weigh 65,000 pounds –collision speed 50 MPH). The Barricade System survived the K54 impact with all major elements intact – the Barricade System was repaired and operating in 3 hours. U.S.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE CRASH TEST CERTIFICATION
The K12 Barricade System has been tested and certified to the highest United States Department of State and International energy standards and has a K12 and a K12-L3 rating.
HIGH SPEED EMERGENCY DEPLOYMENT
The Barricade System Barrier Ramp can be deployed from the open position to the full guard position in less than1.0 second.
OPERATIONAL LIFE
Provide documentation of testing as well as field reports that demonstrate that the Barricade System properly maintained and serviced will operate many millions of cycles. Over a three-year period one commercial site has several systems, each averaging over 30,000 cycles per month (1,080,000 cycles over three years).

2.1.3 Barricade Length. Barricade length shall be 144inches [2,74 M]. All dimensions must be field verified by contractor.
2.1.4 Foundation Depth. The frame of the Barrier shall be 18 inches [457 mm]. All dimensions must be field verified by contractor.
2.1.5 Safety / Visibility Panel. Descending from the front edge of the Barrier Ramp shall be a rigid panel containing three or more red warning lights. The panel shall be continuous across the full width of the Barrier Ramp. The height of the panel shall be 18 inches (457 mm). The Safety Visibility Panel shall have yellow/white (alternately yellow/black) diagonal stripes. All dimensions must be field verified by contractor.
2.1.5.1 Serviceability of Safety / Visibility Panel. The panel and side skirts, mounted on the Ram Weldment shall be readily removable to facilitate Barrier Maintenance and Service using standard hand tools. Finish. The roadway plates shall be painted white [specify optional color(s)]. Finish.
Coatings shall be checked against ordering information and shall be workmanlike in appearance.
2.2.1 Hydraulic Circuit. Circuit shall incorporate the design concepts as described by US Patent # 4,490,068. Unit shall consist of an electrically driven hydraulic pump which shall pressurize a high pressure manifold connected to a hydraulic accumulator. Electrically actuated valves shall be installed on the manifold to allow oil to be directed to the hydraulic cylinders to raise and lower the Barricade. The hydraulic circuit shall include all necessary control logic devices, interconnect lines and valves to override and lock out the normal speed control valve(s) for emergency fast operation of the Barricade(s).
2.2.2 Main Power. The electric motor driving the hydraulic pump shall be fed from (specify actual site voltage, phase and frequency, i.e. 230/3/60). Motor shall be su iciently sized for the expected number of Barricade operations.
2.2.3 Power O Operation. The accumulator shall be sized to allow 2 cycles of a single Barricade in the event of a power outage. Enhanced power o capability can be selected as an option. The control valves shall also be manually operable in this case.
2.2.4 Manual Operation. A hand pump shall be furnished to allow the Barricades to be raised manually in the event of a prolonged power interruption.
2.2.5 Construction. The hydraulic power unit and accessories shall be mounted and wired on an integral steel skid. The HPU shall fit in an envelope 60 inches W x 36 inches D x 60 inches H [1524 mm W x 914 mm D x 1524 mm H]. The HPU shall be mounted indoors or in an optional weather resistant enclosure.
2.3 CONTROL AND LOGIC CIRCUITS The following circuits and control stations shall be furnished:
2.3.1 Control Circuit. A control circuit shall be provided to interface between all Barricade control stations and the hydraulic power unit. This circuit shall contain all relays, timers and other devices necessary for the Barricade operation.
2.3.1.1 Voltage. The control circuit shall operate from a 120/240 volt, 50/60 Hz supply (optionally 24 VDC). An internally mounted transformer shall reduce this to 24 VDC for all external control stations.
