PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 

(' New Hardware or (e' Modification to Non-Significant 

Significant Modification Existing Hardware 

The MSKT-SP-MGS (MASH Sequential Kinking Terminal - Standard Post - Midwest Guardrail System) terminal, as 

approved in CC-126 dated June 10, 2016, is a W-beam guardrail terminal consisting of an impact head 

assembly, a breakaway cable anchorage system and a 12.5 ft (3.8 m) end section. The system requires use of 

37.5 ft (11.4 m) of standard guardrail downstream mounted on 8-in. (203-mm) deep wood or composite blocks 

and 6 ft (1 .8 m) long W6x9 (or W6x8.5) steel posts. A 9.4 ft (2.9 m) W-beam rail section is required downstream 

of Post 3 to transition the rail splices to mid-span. 

In order to accommodate specific site conditions and to reduce the potential for nuisance impacts, some State 

standards recommend the use of up to 2 feet (0.61 m) of offset, or a 2 feet (0.61 m) over 50 feet (15.2 m) flare, 

for tangent terminals such as the MSKT terminal. To accommodate these varying States standards, it is 

requested that the use of up to 2 feet (0.61 m) of offset over the 50 ft (15.2 m) length be approved for the MSKT 

terminal. 

As shown in the AASHTO Roadside Design Guide (Section 8.3.6.3, Tangent W-Beam Terminals), this variation 

was approved for all NCHRP 350 terminals, including the SKT. There is no indication that this variation has 

caused any real-world problem in the field. 

An offset of 2 feet (0.61 m), or a 2 feet (0.61 m) over 50 feet (15.2 m) flare, is equivalent to an angle of 2.3 

degrees. The MSKT terminal successfully passed head-on tests at both 0 (Tests 3-30 and 3-31) and 5 degrees 

(Tests 3-32 and 3-33). The angle of 2.3 degrees is about mid-point between 0 and 5 degrees. Thus, it is 

reasonable to expect that the MSKT terminal would perform satisfactorily in these head-on tests. 

As for the redirectional tests, the relative impact angle is increased from 25 degrees to 27.3 degrees with the 2 

ft (0.61 m) offset. With the increase of the relative impact angle, the impact severity (IS) is increased 17.7 

percent from 115.4 kip-ft (156.2 kJ) to 135.9 kip-ft (183.9 kJ) . It should be noted that the anchorage system has 

some reserve capacity. As a point of reference, the successful Test 3-35, with impact speed and angle of 62.4 

mph (100.36 km/ h) and 26.0 degrees, has an IS of 123.2 kip-ft (167 kJ) or 6.8 percent above the target IS. It is, in 

our opinion, that the anchorage system of the MSKT terminal has sufficient reserve capacity to perform 

satisfactorily in redirectional tests with the 2-ft (0.61-m) offset. 

In summary, the use of up to 2-ft (0.61 -m) offset, or a 2 feet (0.61 m) over 50 feet (15.2 m) flare, are approved for 

other NCH RP 350 and MASH terminals and the in-service history has not identified any problem with the field 

performance. In addition, it is our opinion that the MSKT terminal has sufficient anchorage capacity to handle 

the additional loading resulting from the 2-ft (0.61 -m) offset and would perform satisfactorily in both head-on 

and redirectional tests as explained above. Thus, we request that the use of a 2-ft (0.61 -m) offset, or a 2 feet 

(0.61 m) over 50 feet (15.2 m) flare, be approved for the MSKT terminal.

vehicle impacted Post 2, the back side of the 

impact head, and then Post 1 before 

separating from the test article at an angle 

of 13.37 degrees clockwise from its original 

path. The vehicle sustained moderate front 

end damage with no deformation to the 

occupant compartment. The test article 

received extensive damage between Posts 1 

and 2. The impact head was forced off the 

rail element and the cable anchor assembly 

was separated from the guardrail. The 

Occupant Impact Velocities (OIV) and

primarily intended to evaluate the 

3-38 ( 1500A) performance of the staged attenuator/ Non-Relevant Test, not conducted 

terminal when impacted by a mid-size 

vehicle. 

The MSKT-SP-MGS terminal is not a staged 

device, because the force required to move 

the impact head down the rail does not 

change. The 3-30 test with the 11 OOC 

vehicle makes this test unnecessary.
