A WIRE ROPE OR CABLE SAFETY BARRIER SYSTEM TYPICALLY FOR ROADSIDE USE
The present invention provides a wire rope barrier assembly 10 having a post 12 with slot 20 at its upper end forming a space located between two upper post portions 16, 18; a cable or wire rope 32 located at the lower end of said space 20 and a cap 24 positioned on the upper end of said post 12 which receives said two upper post portions 16, 18, said cap 24 including a slot 26 extending downwardly from its upper surface to provide a space into which is received an upper wire rope or cable 36.

The present invention provides a roadway barrier or guard rail system which has a post (12) which passes through the carriage (20) with the carriage (20) being free to move up along the post (12). The carriage (20) is prevented from moving down the post (12) by means of a stop or restraint (12.60,12.50,12.40,12.30) which is separate from and underneath the carriage (20) and which the carriage (20) abuts, with the stop or restraint (12.60,12.50,12.40,12.30) being located on the post (12). The carriage (20) is not otherwise restrained from moving up the post except by the curved channels through the carriage (20) which engage the extremities of the post, and the friction this may produce. Further systems are provided with the same features but additionally additional frictional or other forces such as shearing forces, produced by means of formations or fixtures to the post or the carriage which must be overcome after the carriage starts moving relative to the post, such as restraints or stops on the post above the carriage. In other embodiments additional frictional or shear forces must be overcome before movement between the carriage (20) and the post (12) will occur. The movement of the carriage (2) on the post (12) is guided by formations on the carriage (20) cooperating with the mating formations on the post (12).

BARRIER CONSTRUCTION, JOINING AND ORIENTATION SYSTEM
A safety barrier having at least two end supports (12) and barrier panels (22) extending there between, said barrier being characterised by colour coding to indicate the orientation of the barrier. The end supports and/or opposed barrier panels can be of colours which are different to each other. The end supports can include complementarily shaped interfaces so that like barriers can connect to each other when the different coloured ends are adjacent to each other.

A stiffener (14, 18, 15, 140, 240, 917, 930, 950, 960, 970, 980, 1000, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1200, 1220, 1260, 1280, 1290, 1230) for a post (12, 914) of a guard rail system, said post having a cross sectional shape that includes at least free two ends (919.1 919.2), said stiffener being adapted to be connected to said supporting post so as to maintain the sectional geometry of said post until a predetermined force is applied to said post. The present invention also relates to a guardrail system (910) having such a stiffener. The present invention also relates to a method of assembling a guardrail system (910) including: providing a post (12, 914) having in cross-section at least two free ends (919.1 919.2); attaching a stiffener (14, 18, 15, 140, 240, 917, 930, 950, 960, 970, 980, 1000, 1020, 1030, 1040, 1200, 1220, 1260, 1280, 1290, 1230) as described to said post so as to prevent said ends (919.1 919.2) from moving relative to each other until a predetermined force is applied to the post. The present invention also relates to a capping system (14, 18, 15, 140, 240, 1200, 1220, 1260, 1280, 1290) for a barrier member (12, 914, 120.1), said system adapted to utilise pre-existing apertures in said barrier to secure a cap member in position on said barrier member. The present invention also relates to a mounting bracket (18) and an end cap assembly having: an end cap (14, 18, 15, 140, 240), a post, a mounting bracket (18), connector means (480, 122) for securing said mounting bracket (18) to a post (12, 914, 120.1), and means (68) for interconnecting the end cap and said bracket.
