RIX Install New Guard Rail Design Pt1

RIX have been invited by a Local City Council to install an innovative new Road Guardrail System. Recently a truck crashed into the Guardrailing severely damaging approximately 50m of rail. This has left passing traffic unprotected from the 20m drop into the water of the bay below.
In the video you can see our specially designed excavator mounted drill mast, drilling the 65mm diameter holes through the rail and back under the road. The 24mm x 3m rockbolts will be installed through the custom built Double Posts of the Guardrail and grouted into the drill holes. The bolts have been designed to provide the posts with support in the incompetent ground, present onsite. It is important to note that the rock bolts have been fabricated with ductile steel as opposed to high tensile steel, this is to combat shock loading which will inevitably occur in the event of another vehicle hitting the rail.
