ITEM 606 - ANCHOR ASSEMBLY, MGS TYPE B^^

THIS ITEM SHALL CONSIST OF FURNISHING AND INSTALLING ANY
OF THE GUARDRAIL END TERMINALS FOR TYPE MGS GUARDRAIL
AS LISTED ON ROADWAY ENGINEERING'S WEB PAGE UNDER
ROADSIDE SAFETY DEVICES FOR APPROVED GUARDRAIL END
TREATMENTS. INSTALLATION SHALL BE AT THE LOCATIONS
SPECIFIED IN THE PLANS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS.

REFER TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING
THE INSTALLATION OF, AND THE GRADING AROUND, THE
FOUNDATION TUBES AND GROUND STRUT. THE TOP OF ANY
FOUNDATION TUBE SHOULD BE LESS THAN 4 INCHES ABOVE THE
GROUND. THE PLACEMENT OF THE FOUNDATION TUBES SHOULD
BE AN APPROPRIATE DEPTH BELOW THE LEVEL LINE IN ORDER
TO MAINTAIN THE FINISHED GUARDRAIL HEIGHT OF 31 INCHES
FROM THE EDGE OF THE SHOULDER.

ON-SITE GRADING IS REQUIRED IF THE TOP OF THE FOUNDATION
TUBES OR TOP OF THE GROUND STRUT DOES PROJECT MORE
THAN 4 INCHES ABOVE THE GROUND LINE.

THE FACE OF THE TYPE B IMPACT HEAD SHALL BE COVERED
WITH TYPE G REFLECTIVE SHEETING, PER CMS 730.19.

PAYMENT FOR THE ABOVE WORK SHALL BE MADE AT THE UNIT
PRICE BID FOR ITEM 606, ANCHOR ASSEMBLY, MGS TYPE B,
EACH, AND SHALL INCLUDE ALL LABOR, TOOLS, EQUIPMENT
AND MATERIALS NECESSARY TO CONSTRUCT A COMPLETE

REFLECTIVE SHEETING AND ALL RELATED HARDWARE, GRADING,
EMBANKMENT AND EXCAVATION NOT SEPARATELY SPECIFIED,
AS REQUIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER.~~

Designer Note:
    1.   The length of need (LON) point is at post number 3; therefore, after calculating
         the required LON for the guardrail, deduct the last 25'-0" of the unit (from post
         #3 to post #9) from the length of need for the guardrail. The designer should
         show the LON point on all guardrail runs in the plans.

    2.   Pre-approved shop drawings are reviewed and are on the Office of Roadway
         Engineering's web page under Roadside Safety Devices.

    3.   These end treatments are gating systems.

    4.   The standard offset at post #1 for the B is 4'-0". This offset can be reduced to a
         minimum of 3'-0" at locations where the 4'-0" offset is impractical.

    5.   Use this plan note in conjunction with Type MGS Guardrail.~~

GRADING, EMBANKMENT AND EXCAVATION NOT SEPARATELY
SPECIFIED, AS REQUIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER.~~

Designer Note:
    1.   The length of need (LON) point for both systems is at post number 3; therefore,
         after calculating the required LON for the guardrail, deduct the last 37'-6" of the

THE LOCATIONS SPECIFIED IN THE PLANS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE MANUFACTURER'S SPECIFICATIONS.~~

Designer Note:
These systems are non-gating and redirective therefore the entire length of the unit can
be included as part of the calculated length of need.

The most current approved products and models are updated regularly online, as such,
individual products should generally not be listed on the plans.

This note should be used for the protection of Type 5 Barrier Design Guardrail, concrete
median barrier and other fixed objects.

If cross slopes are steeper than 8% (12:1) or if the cross slope varies by more than 2%
over the length of the unit, a leveling pad may be used.

Rear fender panels may slide 60 inches rearward upon impact, so ensure the specified width
is adequate.

Bidirectional should be specified for locations where traffic is expected to be in opposing
directions on either side of the barrier. Unidirectional shall be specified when traffic is
expected to move in the same direction on both sides of the barrier.

Each of the Type 2 products have a wide variety of related units (families), typically
covering various design speeds (number of bays) and protected widths. The designer should
also identify on the project plans for each unit specified on the plan any contingencies
needed to construct a complete device.
They include:
    Design speed (The designer must specify Test Level 3 (TL-3) configurations for
         installations on the NHS.)
    Width of hazard
    Available foot print area for the product
    Foundation type (asphalt, concrete, bridge deck)
    Transition type (concrete barrier or guardrail)

         specify an independent stand-alone anchorage like the product's own concrete
         backup, or its tension strut backup)
    Any unique characteristics of the site (curb, expansion joints, etc.)~~

ITEM 606 - CABLE GUARDRAIL^^

THIS ITEM SHALL CONSIST OF FURNISHING AND INSTALLING ANY
ONE OF THE HIGH TENSION FOUR CABLE GUARDRAIL SYSTEMS
AS LISTED ON THE OFFICE OF ROADWAY ENGINEERING'S WEB
PAGE. PAYMENT FOR THE ABOVE WORK SHALL BE MADE AT THE
UNIT PRICE BID FOR ITEM 606, CABLE BARRIER WITH CONCRETE
LINE POST FOUNDATION, AND ITEM 606 CABLE BARRIER, ANCHOR
ASSEMBLY AND SHALL INCLUDE ALL LABOR, TOOLS, EQUIPMENT
AND MATERIALS NECESSARY TO CONSTRUCT A COMPLETE AND
FUNCTIONAL HIGH TENSION CABLE GUARDRAIL SYSTEM NOT
SEPARATELY SPECIFIED, AS REQUIRED BY THE MANUFACTURER.
THE LENGTH OF THE TENSIONED CABLE NECESSARY TO INSTALL
A FUNCTIONAL ANCHOR SYSTEM SHALL BE INCLUDED IN ITEM 606,
CABLE BARRIER WITH CONCRETE LINE POST FOUNDATION.

INSTALLATION SHALL BE AT THE LOCATIONS SPECIFIED IN THE
PLANS, IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S
SPECIFICATIONS.

SYSTEMS SHALL HAVE A MAXIMUM DEFLECTION OF 8 FEET AND
THE MAXIMUM LONGITUDINAL DISTANCE BETWEEN POSTS SHALL
BE 15 FEET.

INSTALLATION WILL BE A FOUR CABLE HIGH TENSION SYSTEM
INSTALLED IN SOCKETED POSTS FOUNDATION WITH A FOUR FOOT
WIDE "NO MOW STRIP".

DELINEATE THE CABLE BARRIER USING TYPE 6 BARRIER
REFLECTORS PER ITEM 626 OR USING FLEXIBLE POSTS PER
ITEM 620 AS CALLED FOR IN THE PLANS OR DIRECTED BY THE
ENGINEER.

ANCHOR TERMINAL STRUTS SHALL BE COVERED COMPLETELY ON
BOTH SIDES WITH YELLOW TYPE J, ASTM D 4956 TYPE XI
REFLECTIVE SHEETING, PER CMS 730.193.


TRANSITIONS TO W-BEAM GUARDRAIL ARE NOT ALLOWED.

REFER TO MANUFACTURER FOR MAXIMUM OFFSET FROM BREAK
POINT.

TORPEDO OR BULLET SPLICES ARE NOT ALLOWED. ALL CABLE
SPLICES SHALL BE A SWAGED OR OPEN BODY DESIGN THAT
ALLOWS FOR ANNUAL INSPECTION BETWEEN THE WEDGE AND
STRANDS OF CABLE.

POSTS ARE SET IN SOCKETED CONCRETE FOUNDATIONS AND
SHALL NOT BE PERMANENTLY INSTALLED UNTIL THEIR
RESPECTIVE RUNS OF TENSIONED CABLE GUARDRAIL ARE READY
FOR FINAL CONNECTION TO THE END TERMINAL ASSEMBLY. THE
CONTRACTOR SHALL REPLACE ANY POSTS DAMAGED DURING
INSTALLATION AS DETERMINED BY THE ENGINEER AT NO
ADDITIONAL COST TO THE STATE.~~

Designer Note:
High tension cable barrier systems shall only be installed to meet the requirements of
Location and Design Manual Section 601.2 Median Barrier Warrants.

The most current approved products and models are updated regularly online, as such,
individual products should generally not be listed on the plans.

Cable barrier should be delineated using Type 6 Barrier Reflectors per Item 626 or using
flexible posts per Item 620 and the delineation should be itemized and paid for under its
respective item number.

Designer should look at the entire corridor before selecting which side of the median the
cable will be installed on. At breaks in the runs of cable such as turnarounds the layout
of the cable should limit the gating potential of the cable end treatments. Installing the
end treatments behind the trailing bridge parapets can eliminate the gating part of the end
treatments. When overlapping cable runs eliminate all of the gating part of the end
treatments. Review Figure 602-3 and 602-4 of L&D Vol. 1 for appropriate layouts.
