4.3.3. Crash Barriers

Crash Barriers shall be designed to incorporate the requirements of this
Security Directive. Crash barriers shall be installed at all main gates,
plant gates and internal gates.

While these requirements are specifically for crash barriers they do not
remove the need to evaluate related operationd issues of trafic flow
management, stand-off distances, building protection, terrain

modifications and vehicle type restrictions that can enhance the

effectiveness of crash barrier deployment.

4.3.3.1. The requirement for determination of penetration levels P1 to

P4 (as an example PI is less than 1 meter, P4 is greater than
30 meters) specified in ASTM F2656-07 shall be jointly
determined by the Owner and HCIS. Unless otherwise stated,
ASTM M50-P 1, or the equivalent requirements of PAS-68, is
the performance level specified.
4.3.3.2. Where acceptable by terrain considerations, lower rated
barriers at ASTM F2656-07MSO-P2 or MSO-P3 levels may be
used if the conditions specified below are met:
Operator shall provide HCIS with justification why the lower
rated barriers are acceptable due tci --.limited vectors for
acceleration, access and/or due to other reasons.' The reasons
cited for this use shall be valid for all approaches to the facility
perimeter where the barrier is installed. The use of such M50-
PU3 rated barriers shalI be concurred by HCTS prior to their
incorporation in the design and implementation.
4.3.3.3. All barriers shall be constructed of materials and components
that will permit extended, continuous operation under the
environmental conditions listed in SEC-OI "Application of
Security Directives".
4.3.3.4. A1I barrier installation shall have power supplies fully
compliant with the requirements of SEC-07 "Power Supply".
4.3.3.5. .Regardless of standard requirements, the minimum deployed
barrier height shall be 90cms.
4.3 -3.6. All deployed crash barriers shall be certified, by independent,
internationally recognized authorities, as being fully compliant
with the standards referenced in this document.
4.3.3.7. The crash barrier shall be constructed of steel that complies
with either ASTM 5 14 or ASTM 517 standards.

corrosion by hot-dip galvanizing in compliance with ASTM
A123.
4.3.3.9. All Crash Barriers shall have traffic light type indicators either
adjacent to each Crash Barrier or above the lane in which the
Crash Barrier is installed.
4.3.3.10. The traffic lights shall have independent lights for barrier
lowered (amber or green) and barrier deployed (red color).
The lights shall change state automatically depending on
barrier position.
4.3.3.1 1. In deployed position the Crash Barrier shall have painted
markings, in high-visibility colors, facing oncoming vehicles,
to advise them that the barrier is deployed.
4.3.3.12.The barrier shall be controlled by a control panel inside the
gatehouse with normal deploy and retract switches. The
control panel shall have status lights indicating barrier
deployment.
4.3.3.13. The control panel shall include an emergency deploy switch.
The switch shall have a protective mechanism to prevent
accidental activation but shall permit easy activation when
required.

Activation of the switch shall raise all barricades at the gate.

The normal depfoy/retract butfons shall not affect banjcade
operation once the emergency deploy button has been
activated.
4.3.3.14.Retraction of the barrier after emergency deploy shall require
activation of a key-switch or a command from a remote
security control room, to retract the barrier. A single key-
switch shall control multiple barriers for clearing the
emergency deploy switch activation.
