DESCRIPTION
-Determination of barrier exposure index and find out optimum performance level
-Design check precast concrete barrier's resistance to transverse load according to CHBDC
-Follow yield line analysis method
ASSUMPTION
-The horizontal reinforcement consists no more than six bars on each face
-The bar size for vertical reinforcement is the same along the whole span
-The barrier has no additional beam section at its top
-The INPUT of barrier is in accordance with MoT standard precast barrier drawing
