Road restraint systems - Part 5: Product requirements, test and assessment methods and acceptance criteria
This European Standard specifies requirements, test/assessment methods, acceptance criteria and
methods for verification of constancy of performance of the following vehicle restraint systems to be used
as temporary or permanent on the roads and in vehicle circulation areas:
a) safety barriers (including vehicle parapets)
b) crash cushions
c) terminals
d) transitions (including Removable Barrier Sections)
e) vehicle parapets combined with pedestrian parapets (only for the vehicle
restraint function)
f) safety barriers (including vehicle parapets) with motorcyclists protection
Vehicle restraint systems are kits usually composed by a fixed number of components (e.g. safety barriers
composed by rails, posts, spacers, bolts and nuts, etc.) working together as a set.
The essential characteristics described in the standard will concern the kits, i.e. the set of elements as a
whole.

Foreword
This document (prEN 1317-5:2013) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 226 “Road
equipment”, the secretariat of which is held by AFNOR.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive.
For relationship with EU Directive, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of this document.
This document will supersede EN 1317-5:2007+A2:2012.
At the moment of writing, the cast-in-place barriers are considered to be on-site works, not products, however
their performance evaluation can be made against this standard.
This European Standard consists of the following Parts under the general title:
Road restraint systems ―
Part 1: Terminology and general criteria for test methods;
Part 2: Performance classes, impact test acceptance criteria and test methods for safety barriers;
Part 3: Performance classes, impact test acceptance criteria and test methods for crash cushions;
Part 4: Performance classes, impact test acceptance criteria and test methods for transitions (under
preparation: this document will supersede ENV 1317-4:2001 for the clauses concerning transitions);
Part 5 (this part), Product requirements, test and assessment methods and acceptance criteria;
Part 6: Pedestrian restraint system - Pedestrian parapets (CEN/TR);
Part 7: Performance classes, impact test acceptance criteria and test methods for terminals (under
preparation: this document will supersede ENV 1317-4:2001 for the clauses concerning terminals);
Part 8: Motorcycle road restraint systems which reduce the impact severity of motorcyclist collisions with
safety barriers (CEN/TS).
Annexes A, C, D, E, G are normative and Annexes B, F, H, I are informative.
The significant technical changes incorporated in this revision are:
The assessment procedures for modified products and product ranges;
The addition of provisions to assess the characteristics of the ground (with a means of soil, plinth,
anchorages, etc.) where the barrier has been tested;
The addition of provision to limit the volatility of performance derived by the material used for the product
through limited material’s characteristics;
Adaptation of the standard to the CEN rules and templates for harmonized standard and to the new
template for annex ZA;
Adaptation of the standard to the CPR;
The addition of an annex dealing with the simplified assessment through virtual testing (computational
mechanics);
The addition to the annex ZA of terminals and transitions;
The addition of a list of minimal information that a manufacturer should provide when placing the product
on the market;
The addition of minimal provisions the manufacturer should include in his installation manual.
Introduction
In order to improve and maintain road safety, the design of safer roads requires, on certain sections of road
and at particular locations, the installation of road restraint systems. These road systems are designated to
redirect and/or contain errant vehicles safely or to reduce the severity of vehicle impact with a more resistive
object, for the benefit of the occupants and other road users, including pedestrians. This will happen on
sections of road and at particular locations open to vehicle traffic, defined by the National or Local Authorities
with a specified performance level or category, chosen among those defined in this standard.
Additionally, the performances of road restraint systems and other information indicated in the standard and in
the Annexes can be useful for the installation by road safety designer or National or Local Authority.
1 Scope
This European Standard specifies requirements, test/assessment methods, acceptance criteria and methods
for verification of constancy of performance of the following vehicle restraint systems to be used as
1)
temporary or permanent on the roads and in vehicle circulation areas:
a) safety barriers (including vehicle parapets),
b) crash cushions,
c) terminals,
d) transitions (including Removable Barrier Sections),
e) safety barriers (including vehicle parapets) combined with motorcyclists protection (only for the vehicle
restraint function),
f) vehicle parapets combined with pedestrian parapets (only for the vehicle restraint function).
Pedestrian parapets requirements are not included in this European Standard.
