Abstract:

The research was conducted to develop a cost-effectiveness model for guardrail selection that includes cost parameters for eleven (11) guardrail configurations and criteria for analysis of system effectiveness under various dynamic impact conditions. This volume is a user's manual for applying the cost-effectiveness computer programs for (1) selection at a particular site of the most cost-effective guardrail system of the eleven included types, (2) guardrail placement at a site for the optimum location and guardrail type, and (3) priority ranking of several site selections for appropriation of available funds.
