MDS® TL5 BARRIERSMDS® Steel Barriers are a high performance vehicle restraint system. Lightweight modular design facilitates assembly for for both new and existing bridge constructions or rehabilita-tion projects. Easily relocate barriers during deck resurfacing while maintaing TL4 high im-pact minimal deflection standards. MDS® Barriers incorporates a unique base attachment system called Progressive SRS© (Stress Reduction System) that dissipates and absorbs vehicle impact forces while reducing the moment transmission forces into the bridge deck.
PROVEN MDS® TL5 PERFORMANCEMDS® BARRIERS have been tested to meet the highest performance standards in the world, passing both the American Standard NCHRP Report 350 and MASH-08 Test Level 5 including European Standard EN1317 Test Level H4b.
PROGRESSIVE SRS© is unlike any barrier, the design and behavior of MDS® BARRIERS under impact is unique to what we typically would not expect from crash barriers by taking ad-vantage of the barriers impact stress reduction design. Standard steel barriers generally rely on the “stiffness” or “torsional rigidity” of a barrier which is logical, but the stiffness and hardness of the barrier also transmits impact forces back to the vehicle and into the bridge deck developing excessive pulling forces on the bridge deck that can create severe or hidden damage including excessive repair costs. By reducing moment forces with SRS allows bridge decks to be designed with less reinforcement materials saving in material costs and labor when compared to concrete barrier design requirements.
FEATURES• Highest containment in a portable TL5 system• Modular 6 & 3 meter sections and custom lengths• Lightweight only 88 Lbs per foot• Progressive SRS© technology • Variable Length Barriers for expansion joints• Eliminates 87% of concrete barrier dead weight • 40/> 100 year *life cycle in C1-VH environments • Adapts to most all industry standard end treatments• Easily remove and replace damaged sections• Pre-designed for noise and site wall integration
APPLICATIONS• Bridges• Work Zones
• Highway Medians• Edge of Roadways

SITE & SOUND WALLS
Sound barrier panels provide a perfect noise protection system that is resistant to atmospheric corrosion in industrial and seaside environments.Sound Site Wind Fence
METAL SOUND BARRIERS Metal sound barriers are made of galvanized steel, stainless steel or aluminum by cold forming process. Sound barrier panels provide a perfect noise protection and are resistant to atmospheric corrosion in industrial and seaside environments. Tested in compliance with UNI EN 1793-1,2:2008 and UNI EN 1794-1,2:2003, metal sound absorbing panels are CE certified and belong to category A4 for sound absorption and category B3 for sound insulation.
PANEL DIMENTIONS Panels are avaiable in 4 sizes allowing for 20 inch incriment assembliys in addition to being installed in a verity of combi-nations to occomodate different road hazards.
HEIGHTMDS TL5 Maximum height 18 ftMDS TL4 Maximum height 13 ft
TRANSPARENT SOUND BARRIERS Transparent sound barriers are made up of laminated glass panels fitted in aluminum frames. Each frame is connected to the barrier posts by bolts and safety cables. Glass panels maintain excellent transparency in all weather conditions and guarantee maximum noise protection such as highways, urban environments, tram-way-railway and residential areas.
DISSUASIVE BARRIERSModern aesthetic wind breakers protect motorcyclists and vehicle operators from being blown off course from strong wind gusts as they pass through bridges, valleys, mountain roads or gaps in open areas especially in slippery road condi-tions.
TL5NOISE WALL & VISUAL PROTECTIONMDS® BARRIERS are per-designed to integrate sound barriers, site walls, wind breakers and fencing within a single barrier system providing considerable savings in terms of occupied space, supporting substructures and overall cost. The special backward positioning of the noise-protection barrier requires less lateral space on the bridge deck or road side.

Sound barrier panels provide a perfect noise protection and are resistant to atmospheric corrosion in industrial and seaside environments. GLASS SOUND PANELSTransparent sound barriers are made up of laminated glass panels fitted in aluminum frames. Each frame is connected to the barrier posts by bolts and safety cables only in the case of extreme bolt failure. Glass panels maintain excellent transparency in all weather conditions and guarantee maximum noise protection in any location where noise pollution is an issue, such as highways and residential areas. SAFETY SOUND PANELSProtect bridge decks from public abuse and projectiles. Enclose construction sights discouraging visibility and access. Provide full scale wide area protection for high threat areas for absolute containment.
