 Applications

·         Vetex^TM P1 end terminal effectively anchors and terminates barrier runs thus offering a cost effective alternative to existing P1 terminals

·         Straight ended detail enables installation where space is limited

·         Suitable for new build projects

·         Can be integrated with existing barrier runs; ideal for maintenance, repair and refurbishment

Installation and Maintenance

·         Vetex^TM terminals do not have concrete fairing details and do not require tensioning

·         Vetex^TM P1 can therefore be installed in as little as one hour, with only one site visit needed

·         They are driven terminals which can also be installed in concrete

 Expert Design and Engineering

·         Safety is at the heart of Tata Steel Highways safety barrier development. The patented Vetex^TM terminals have been engineered to offer a safer alternative to traditional terminals

·         Vetex^TM terminals have been specifically designed to assist in the redirection of ramped impacts in a safe and controlled way.  A discrete, sloping end detail to below ground yields a robust anchorage, while ensuring that key anchorage components do not create a hazard to errant vehicles.  The Vetex^TM design allows a vehicle to mount the terminal smoothly, without snagging, and redirects it onto the ground, giving an improved level of safety for vehicle occupants

·         With Vetex^TM terminals, vehicle and barrier damge is generally lower than for collapsible mechanisms. Therefore, Vetex^TM terminals maintain anchorage of the adjacent barrier, which means that the barrier maintains safety performance and can still be effective after impact
