At the start of the 1990s, our Research and Development Department came up with a new concept: the combination of wood and steel which solves several problems:
- using the aesthetic, braking mechanics and damping properties of wood.
- reinforcing naturally heterogeneous wood with a metal frame.
Improved safety. Mixed wood & steel parapets as extensions of safety barriers.
Specifications
Parapet Vervins
Built from our T18 2M or T18 4MS2 mixed wood & steel guardrail , triple railing with C 125 post on a steel base – Height 1m above ground. Mixed wood & steel parapets as per standard NFP 01 – 012 and tested according to standard NF P 01-013
By retaining the same concept as our mixed wood & steel guardrails, our parapets provide secure combination and encourage vehicle retention. Their attractive appearance gives tone and improves the silhouette of a structure to make it blend into its natural environment.
Pressure-treated wood with chromium and arsenic-free preservatives.
