COMPLIANCE TESTING OF IOWA’S SKID-MOUNTED SIGN DEVICE
A wide variety of traffic control devices are used in work zones, some of which are nont ormally found on the roadside or in the traveled way outsideofthe work zones. These devices are used to enhance the safety of the work zones by controlling the traffic through these areas. Due to the placement of the traffic control devices, the devices themselves may be potentially hazardous to both workers and errant vehicles. The impact performance of many work zone traffic control devices is mainly unknown and to date limited crash testing has been conducted under the criteria of National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report No. 350, Recommended Procedures for the Safety Performance Evaluation of Highway Features.
The objective of the study was to evaluatethe safety performance of existing skid-mounted sign supports through full- scale crash testing. Two full-scale crash tests were conducted on skid-mounted sign supports to determine their safety performance according to the Test Level 3 (TL-3) criteria set forth in the NCHRP Report No. 350. The safety performancevaluations indicate that these skid-mounted sign supports did not perform satisfactorily in the full-scale crash tests. The results of the crash tests were documented, and conclusions and recommendations pertaining tothe safety performance of the existing work zone traffic control devices were made
Physical simulation of wind pressure on building models at various arrangement and airflow conditions
The results of modeling and distribution of the pressure coefficient on the faces of the faces of the model of a high-rise building with a relative height of H/a = 3 and 6 are obtained under the influence of vortex flows created by an obstacle with similar geometric parameters with its lateral displacement from the longitudinal axis of the channel. The accepted range of transverse displacements is L2/a = 0.5; 1; 1.5; 2. In the range of studies, the airflow angle of 0 degrees was adopted with the maximum Reynolds number (Re) = 4.25´104. The distances between the models in the wake correspond to the calibers L1/a = 1.5; 3 and 6. A series of experiments was carried out on the basis of the theory of modeling. The experiments are based on the modeling of the model buildings under study on the basis of the similarity theory. Systematic data are obtained on the distribution of the pressure coefficients Cp on the faces of the model, depending on its location in the track of the upstream model with a change in the distance between them in the transverse direction relative to the direction of the air flow
