Images 1 through 4 show a series of concrete barrier installations.
Unlinked concrete barriers (images 1 through 3) offer little impact protection unless anchored individually. They also move dangerously upon impact.
Linked concrete barriers (image 4) often crumble upon impact, showering debris upon oncoming traffic. A collapsed barrier can fail to stop the crash vehicle from colliding with oncoming traffic.
Examples of Dysfunctional Perimeter Protection using concrete barriers
How strong is SecurGurad PHX-4 Protection?
How about exceptional. The above images show the results of a tractor trailer that crossed a highway median carrying two trailer extensions colliding with SecureGuard barrier. Truck never entering oncoming traffic and only a
10 ft. section of SecureGuard was replaced.
