- Description
- The Federal Highway Administration plans to award a purchase order to Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) to make a finite element analysis of a W-beam on light on post median barrier in order to see if the current barrier design can pass the crash test with the pickup truck required for Test Level Three (TL-3) in NCHRP Report 350(1). WPI has previously made a detailed finite element model of a W-beam on light post guardrail and successfully validated it against full-scale crash tests. Because WPI is uniquely qualified to perform this procedure, no other source is considered reasonably available. This is a Simplified Acquisition and the anticipated award date is on or about March 26, 2002.
