摘要:The project RID 3A Road Safety Equipment (RoSE) implemented by the Gdansk University of Technology within the RID programme, aims to conduct a comprehensive study and analyses of different vehicle containment systems (PN-EN 1317) and types of support structures (PN-EN 12767) and their performance. Within the project an analysis will be conducted of available research reports and domestic and foreign experiences looking at road restraint systems and support structures applications. The paper will present a comparison of the guidelines and principles for the design and application of road restraint systems. Similarities and differences in the approach to different solutions will also be discussed. The above analyses will form the basis for the development of tools for selecting and applying road restraint systems in Poland.
