- W580068375 abstract "It is impractical and virtually impossible to duplicate and accurately determine, in a limited number of standardized crash tests, the effect that all of variables will have on vehicles impacting a highway appurtenance. Recognizing this, NCHRP Report 230 establishes normalized test conditions; straight longitudinal barriers are tested although curved installations exist; flat grade is recommended even though installations are sometimes situated on sloped shoulders or behind curbs; idealized soils are specified although appurtenances are often located in poor, frozen or saturated ground, etc. These normalized factors have significant effect on the performance of an appurtenance and may obscure serious safety deficiencies that exist under more typical but less ideal actual conditions. However, these normalized factors are thought to be secondary in importance when the object of a test program is to compare the results of tests on two or more systems. The normalized test conditions are more easily duplicated and thus promote better correlation of results by different testing agencies. For these reasons, the highway engineer is warned that when the performance of an appurtenance is required for a specific site situation or the performance of an appurtenance is suspected of being unacceptable under some likely conditions, it is important that these specific conditions should be used instead of, or in addition to, the normalized test factors.
