Type F DOT Concrete Median Barrier 12'6"
The US Barricades® 12'6" Type F Precast Concrete Median Barrier is manufactured to meet the strict safety and structural specifications of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and state Departments of Transportation across the country. The defining feature of this heavy-duty barrier is its "F-shape" profile, which is specifically engineered to absorb impact energy, control vehicle trajectory, and significantly reduce the risk of vehicle rollover compared to traditional barrier shapes.
Cast from premium high-strength reinforced concrete, this 12-foot 6-inch barrier is the premier choice for high-speed interstates, demanding work zones, and permanent highway infrastructure. Utilizing the Type F design ensures your project adheres to modern crash-test standards, providing maximum safety for both motorists and construction crews.
