Compliance

Moddex balustrades and handrails are designed and manufactured in accordance with Austroads Guide to Road Design, relevant statutory WHS Codes of Practice/ Guidelines, including AS5100.2.2017 CL12.5*. and the NZTA Bridge Manual B6.4**. Galvanized to AS 4792 and AS/NZS 4680:2006 (where applicable). The manufacture of Bridgerail proprietary systems is in accordance with Moddex specifications and manufacturing processes, and this may differ to some jurisdictional specifications for steelwork fabrication, bridges and related structures. Forces from wind load, water and debris or earthquakes are to be determined by the bridge designer/engineer. The bridge designer/engineer must request and confirm (not assume) adequacy for these projects specific requirements, before specifying or approving this barrier system for use. Excluding where the road controlling authority requires the barrier to restrain crowds or people under panic conditions
