NOTE:

THE RAIL MOUNTING HEIGHT OF ALL GUIDE RAIL OR MEDIAN BARRIER PLACED BEHIND CURB (REGARDLESS OF THE CURB HEIGHT OR SPEED)

SHALL BE MEASURED FROM THE PAVEMENT SURFACE WHEN THE OFFSET IS 9" OR LESS AND TO THE GROUND SURFACE UNDER THE FACE OF

THE RAIL WHEN THE OFFSET IS GREATER.

POST SPACING SHALL BE 6’-0" EXCEPT WHERE REDUCED POST SPACING IS INDICATED ON THE

CONTRACT PLANS. POSTS ARE CONNECTED TO RAIL AT 6’-0" SPACING. WHEN 36" OR 24"

REDUCED POST SPACING IS REQUIRED, PAYMENT FOR ADDITIONAL POSTS ASSOCIATED WITH

REDUCED POST SPACING WILL BE MADE UNDER EITHER THE PAY ITEM FOR BACKUP POSTS

FOR GUIDE RAIL OR THE PAYMENT FACTORS SPECIFIED IN CONTRACT DOCUMENTS.

SEE BRIDGE PLANS FOR GUIDE RAIL DETAILS, POST SPACING AND PAY ITEMS FOR

TRANSITIONS AND CONNECTIONS TO BRIDGE RAIL.

FOR MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS AND CONS RUCTION DETAILS, SEE SPECIFICATIONS FOR

GUIDE RAILING IN SECTION 606.

THE LINE OF BOX BEAM GUIDE RAIL, WHEN COMPLETED, SHALL PRESENT A SMOOTH

AND PLEASING GRADE LINE IN BOTH HORIZONTAL AND VERTICAL PLANES.

CURVED BOX BEAM GUIDE RAIL WITH A RADIUS OF 720’ OR LESS SHALL BE SHOP

WORKED TO THE REQUIRED CURVATURE, AND PAYMENT FOR SUCH CURVED LENGTHS

MADE UNDER THE APPROPRIATE ITEM FOR BOX BEAM GUIDE RAIL (SHOP CURVED).

BACKUP MAY REMAIN IN PLACE.

72’-0" APPROACH AND TERMINAL ENDS SHOULD BE TERMINATED WITH A TYPE I END ASSEMBLY

EXCEPT WHEN TERMINATED IN A BACK SLOPE, AND MAY BE INCLUDED AS PART OF THE 72’-0"

APPROACH AND TERMINAL END.

THE TYPE II END ASSEMBLY MAY BE USED AT DRIVEWAYS, SIDEWALKS AND OTHER RESTRICTED

AREAS WHERE THE 72’-0" APPROACH OR TERMINAL END CANNOT BE ACCOMMODATED. LOCATIONS

OF THE TYPE II END ASSEMBLY SHALL BE GIVEN IN THE CONTRACT DOCUMENTS. THE TYPE II END

ASSEMBLY SHALL BE FLARED BACK AS SHOWN IN THE DETAILS. THE CONTRACTOR HAS THE OPTION

OF USING EITHER METHOD #1 OR METHOD #2 TO ACHIEVE THE FLARE. WHEN METHOD #2 IS SELECTED,

THERE WILL BE NO ADDITIONAL PAYMENT FOR THE RAIL CURVATURE. WHEN RESTRICTIVE CONDITIONS

DO NOT PERMIT THE STANDARD SET BACK OF 33", THE FLARE RATE SHALL BE FLATTENED TO

ACCOMMODATE THE REDUCED SET BACK. TO REDUCE THE FLARE USING METHOD #1 FIRST FLATTEN

THE FLARE RATE OF THE 27’-0" END ASSEMBLY, ONCE THE 27’-0" END ASSEMBLY AND THE ADJACENT

18’-0" BOX BEAM ELEMENT IS IN A STRAIGHT LINE FURTHER REDUCTION OF THE SET BACK IS

ACHIEVED BY FLATTENING THE FLARE, OF THE ENTIRE 27’-0" SECTION. TO REDUCE THE FLARE RATE

AND SET BACK USING METHOD #2 REDUCE THE CURVE RATE IN THE CURVED 18’-0" RAIL ELEMENT.

FLARE AND SET BACK FOR METHOD #1 IS ACCOMPLISHED BY UTILIZING PLAY IN THE SPLICE PLATES.

IF SPLICE PLATES WILL NOT ACCOMMODATE THE DESIRED FLARE AND OFFSET, THE CORNERS

AND/OR WIDTH OF THE PLATE SHALL BE REDUCED BY GRINDING (PER EIC) AND THE GALVANIZING

FIELD REPAIRED PER y719-01.
