TSP also sells a variety of guardrail products including:

  • W-Beam Guardrail
  • Thrie-Beam Guardrail, and
  • I-Beam Posts

Guardrail Brochure

W-Beam guardrail provides the safety needed for today’s drivers, who need a product that will stand up to any incident on the road.

Thrie Beam offers a higher level of performance, especially to large vehicles. Due to the greater height of the rail face, thrie beam guardrail reduces deflection and improves resistance of vehicles, which helps to prevent rollover vaulting and underrunning. 

Steel I-Beam posts provide sturdy supports for our guardrail products.

NU-GUARD 27 W-Beam Guardrail System, with Offset Block

NU-GUARD 27 has been crash-tested and meets NCHRP 350 TL-3 criteria, and is FHWA-accepted for roadside applications. The system uses any standard W-beam (AASHTO M-180, Class A or B, Type II) and requires the use of offset blocks.

Now standard W-beam guardrail with offset blocks can be installed in a fraction of the typical time needed, thanks to the specifically designed RIB-BAK U-channel posts from Nucor Steel Marion, Inc.

The NU-GUARD-27 strong post guardrail system is easier, faster and more economical to install than standard wood or I-beam post guardrail systems. The 5 lb/ft RIB-BAK U-channel steel posts, six-and-a-half feet in length, are quickly and easily direct-driven into the ground or through asphalt to the proper depth. Standard guardrail hardware is used to attach the guardrail and offset block to the U-channel post.

With no holes to auger, total installation time is dramatically faster.

NU-GUARD 31 W-Beam Guardrail System

NU-GUARD 31 is a W-beam guardrail post system that combines NCHRP 350 (TL-3 and TL-4) and MASH (TL-3) compliance with a design that makes installation and repairs simple, fast and inexpensive.

Specially designe 5 lb/ft RIB-BAK U-channel steel posts allow a standard W-beam guardrail to rise during impact with the vehicle, dissipating energy in an innovative way, resulting in smoother, more predictable redirection.

NU-GUARD 31 eliminates the need for offset blocks or heavy, expensive thrie-beam guardrail. Standard bolts with a  specially designed washer are all you need to attach a standard W-beam guardrail to the uniquely designed posts.

The revolutionary NU-GUARD 31 system is much faster, easier and less costly to install than traditional wood or I-beam post systems. The RIB-BAK U-channel steel posts are quickly and easily direct-driven into the ground or theough asphalt to the proper depth. With no holes to auger, total installation time is dramatically faster than standard post sytems.

NU-CABLE 3 or 4-Cable Safety Barrier

The Nu-Cable Barrier Systems offer a unique combination of TL-3 and TL-4 crash-test proven protection, while costing 50 to 75% less than traditional W-beam and concrete barrier systems. They are also more economical to install, maintain and repair. That's saving lives for less!

The NU-CABLE system is available in 3-cable (TL-3), or the 4-cable (TL-3 and TL-4) designs that are crash tested and NHCRP 350 Compliant. NU-CABLE TL-3 has passed the "pick-up truck" test, and NU-CABLE TL-4 has passed the "box truck" test. The NU-CABLE TL-3 and TL-4 systems are designed to be used with strong, yet economical 4 lb or 5 lb RIB-BAK U-channel breakaway steel posts. Pre-stretched 3/4" cables are attached to the posts with a unique system of locking hook bolts, cable hangers and clips that absorb energy during crashes. The systems are FHWA-accepted and are anchored at both ends into FHWA-accepted end treatments.

 

The NU-CABLE barrier systems can be installed in median and roadside configurations, with posts economically installed in direct-driven line post, concrete socketed or direct-driven steel socketed foundations. Not only is the system easy to install, but it's also easy to maintain and repair, resulting in continued savings beyond its lower installation costs.

Crews prefer the NU-CABLE system because it can be repaired quickly after it has been hit - often in less than 30 minutes!

NU-CABLE does not block driver visibilty like a concrete or W-beam system.
