QuadGuard® CZ Construction Zone System
NCHRP 350

non-gating, redirective TL-3 crash cushion system for workzones,
the QuadGuard CZ performs effectively with both light cars and high center
of gravity pickup trucks for speeds up to 100 km/h (62 mph) and angles
up to 20°. During head-on impacts, the QuadGuard
CZ System telescopes rearward and crushes a set of staged cartridges to
absorb the energy of impact. When impacted from the side, the QuadGuard
CZ System redirects the errant vehicle away from work crews without allowing
gating.

QuadGuard CZ on the
Morrison Bridge, Portland, Oregon |
Compact, modular design accommodates speeds from
25 to 62 mph (40 to 100 km/h). Telescoping Quad-Beam panels provide 30%
higher beam strength than three element panels, and a monorail base eliminates
the need for anchoring chains and tension cable, providing excellent redirective
capability.
The QuadGuard CZ’s quick and easy refurbishment
keeps repair costs low (65-70% reusable) after design impact.
The QuadGuard CZ is available for rent from our leasing
division, Coral Equipment Company.
