Quantities

A. Guardrail

Divide length of barrier (metres) by 4 to determine the number of rails required

B. Posts

Multiply the number of rails by 2 and add I unit per run.

C. Blocks

Number of blocks is equal to the number of posts.

D. Stiffeners

Number of stiffeners is equal to the number of rails.

E. Terminal
    Ends

Provide I terminal end at each end of barrier

F. Splice Bolts
    M16x32

Multiply the number of rails by 8 then add 8 units per length of run

G. Block Bolts
    M16x35

Multiply the number of blocks by 2.

H. Rail Bolts
    M16x50

Same quantity as posts.

1. Rectangular
    Washers

Same quantity as posts.
