Novel transition system for use between steel to concrete barriers

German firm PASS+CO has developed a novel product that can be used as a transition between steel and concrete barriers. Called the FLEXTRA SR-C, this product meets the European H2 rating under the EN1317 and connects the firm’s own SUPER-RAIL H4b double barrier with concrete structures. This can be installed in an array of applications, such as at the entrance to tunnels or tolling areas, where there is a need for a transition from one type of barrier to another.

It offers the selective removal of deteriorated concrete, while retaining sound concrete below the intended level of removal, a process that will not damage rebar or cause micro-cracks in the concrete, as will mechanical methods s
