Abstract:

This report contains the test procedures, test setup followed, and the test results from seven frontal full–scale vehicle crash tests conducted at the Federal Outdoor Impact Laboratory (FOIL) located at the Turner–Fairbank Highway Research Center in McLean, Virginia. The frontal collisions were between FOIL's new, larger capacity rigid pole and test vehicles ranging in size from FOIL's surrogate bogie vehicle to a full–size Chevrolet C2500 pickup truck. Two FOIL bogies, two Ford Festivas, one Volkswagen Rabbit, one Ford pickup truck, and one Chevrolet pickup truck were accelerated to varying speeds before striking the large rigid pole. This series of seven crash tests served multiple purposes, with the main objective being to get the new, larger capacity rigid pole operational. The results from the crash tests indicated that the new rigid pole was operational and structurally sound.
