| This low-tension system is perfect for guide rail applications
where deflection needs are 12 ft. or greater. Three 3 x 7 steel cables
are supported by strong (up to 100 KSI yield strength) yet economical 4
lb. Nucor Steel Marion RIB-BAKŪ
U-channel posts, galvanized for long life. Cables are attached to
the U-channel posts by unique hook bolts, and anchored at both ends
into FHWA-approved end terminals.
The Nucor 4 lb. Rib-BakŪ U-channel post is an acceptance alternate post
for the commonly used generic low tension systems on the roadway today.
The Rib-BakŪ Low-Tension System utilizes the standard J-bolt connection
hardware on the generic low-tension systems and the 4 lb. Rib-BakŪ
U-Channel post as an alternate to the S3 x 5.7 x 5' - 3".
The Modified Rib-BakŪ Low-Tension System utilizes the Nucor locking
hook bolts as well as the 4 lb. Rib-BakŪ U-Channel post as an alternate
to the S3 x 5.7 x 5' - 3". This system allows for deflections less than
12 feet.
