Cable Reinforced Crash Beams

B&B ARMR’s Crash Beam Barriers Gates are engineered and designed to protect at-risk access points and prevent forced vehicle entry or exit for industrial, commercial and institutional facilities requiring medium to high security. Available in manual, hydraulic or electromechanical operating modes, the crash beam barrier gates are ideally suited and for oil refineries, chemical plants, train yards, storage facilities, technical centers, nuclear facilities, embassies, military installations and government agencies.

B&B ARMR’s crash beam models have a minimum gate opening of 12 feet (3.7 m) and a maximum of 28 feet (8.5 m). The units are capable of immobilizing a 10,000 lb. (4,535.9 kg) vehicle traveling 18 mph (29.0 km/h) to 20 mph (32.2 km/h) with a penetration depth ranging from 18 to 20 feet (5.5 to 6.1 m). Basic components of the crash beam barriers include the standard vertical to horizontal arm with an energy absorption cable assembly, hinge post, receiver/latch post, cable-reinforced crash beam and automatic controls.

With a gate arm made of 4-inch 6061-T6 aluminum pipe lined with a 7/8-inch annealed, stainless steel wire rope, B&B ARMR’s crash barriers have been successfully crash tested for energy absorption capacity per U.S. Navy Specifications and Department of the Army rating level of KN1-LN2. Models CR-25 and CR-25M are listed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in the document, Protection Against Malevolent Use of Vehicles at Nuclear Power Plants (NUREG/CR-6190 Vol. 2, Rev. 1).

When the crash beam is hit by a vehicle, the aluminum beam gives way to the cable inside, and the impact energy is absorbed as the cable stretches. When the cable is at full tension, the impact energy is then transferred to the foundation through the hinge post and the receiver/latch post of the crash beam.

B&B ARMR’s Crash Beam Barriers are available with several enhancement options to easily adapt to suit any user’s needs. For extremely cold weather, the receiver/latch post may be equipped with a heater for uninterruptible operation or an electromagnetic lock can be installed for additional security during unattended times. Manual unit, Model 714, may be raised and lowered by one person without the use of counter weights, and Model 712-P is a portable vehicle barrier designed for fast installation in areas where a permanent barrier in not available.

Shallow-Mount Vehicle Barricades

For the absolute maximum protection against unauthorized vehicle access, B&B ARMR’s Model 820 Shallow-Mount Vehicle Barricades are expertly engineered to completely immobilize a substantial, high-speed vehicle. Model 820 exceeds Department of State specifications STD 02.01 with a K12/L3 rating and is capable of stopping a 15,000 lb. (6803.9 kg) vehicle going at speeds up to 50 mph (80.5 km/h) with zero penetration.

Designed for facilities and environments requiring the highest level of perimeter protection, Model 820 is ideally suited for government and military establishments, embassies and other critical infrastructures vital to our national security, economy, public health and safety.

B&B ARMR’s Shallow-Mount Barriers are constructed of heavy-gauge steel shapes and weldments designed to transmit the energy of the impacting vehicle to the foundation. Once constructed, the frame and top plate are finished with a superior rust inhibitor and anti-wear paint allowing for superior corrosion protection. The barrier is operated by either a hydraulic or pneumatic pumping unit built to operate one or more barriers and uses a standard or custom controller to meet the users’ requirements.

Installation of the crash barrier is simple with its shallow-mount design so there is no need for any major excavation work on existing roads or paved surfaces. Model 820 comes complete with all necessary accesses for drains, hydraulic conduits and electrical services to further ease the installation process.

In the active (up) position, the barrier stands 34 inches high and lowers flush to the ground to allow authorized vehicles to pass. The barrier plate is 9 feet (2.7 m) wide and is available in custom sizes up to 18 feet (5.5 m) to fit challenging installations such as parking garages and ramps, narrow thoroughfares or raised surfaces.

The barrier is provided with safety locks that may be used during servicing to secure the unit for long periods of time. Additional safety devices can be used to enhance the barrier performance including face-mounted red LED lights, safety loops, traffic arms and traffic lights.

Surface Mount Barriers

B&B ARMR’s Model 890 Surface-Mount Vehicle Barricades are designed to prevent vehicles from entering restricted and controlled areas. Model 890 is tested to the US Marshal's Standard and is capable of stopping a 4,000 lb. (1814.4 kg) vehicle going at speeds up to 30 mph (48.3 km/h) with zero penetration.

Designed for facilities and environments requiring a medium to high level of perimeter protection, Model 890 is ideally suited for commercial applications including business parks, school campuses, shopping malls, hotels, museums and apartment complexes.

B&B ARMR’s Surface-Mount Barricades are constructed of heavy-gauge steel shapes and weldments designed to transmit the energy of the impacting vehicle to the foundation. Once constructed, the frame and top plate are finished with a superior rust inhibitor and anti-wear paint allowing for superior corrosion protection. The barrier is operated by a self-contained pumping unit designed specifically for the user’s application and is equipped with all valves, ports and fittings to operate the barricade for continuous use.

Installation of the crash barrier is simple with its surface-mount design so there is no need for any major excavation work on existing roads or paved surfaces. Model 890 bolts onto an existing concrete slab or roadway and comes complete with all necessary accesses for drains, hydraulic conduits and electrical services to further ease the installation process. The pumping unit also includes a universal programmable logic controller that allows control of the barricade with push buttons, card reader, safety and free exit loops.

The standard barricade plate is 8 feet (2.4 m) wide but may be customized to sizes up to 14 feet (4.6 m). The barrier is provided with safety locks that may be used during servicing to secure the unit for long periods of time. Additional safety devices can be used to enhance the barrier performance including integral gate arm assembly, safety loops and traffic lights.

Perimeter Security Bollards

B&B ARMR’s Model B-30 High Security Vehicle Access Control Bollard Systems are expertly and aesthetically designed to act as a vehicular deterrent for perimeter security and traffic control purposes.

Engineered for simple installation, fast service and easy relocation, the Model B-30 is constructed of high strength steel cylindrical units encased in movable bollard tubes guided by an offset flange assembly with precision molded anti-friction surfaces. All subterranean components including the foundation is coated to prevent corrosion.

D.O.S.-certified with a K8 rating, Model B-30 stands 30 inches (metric) tall and is available in 4-, 8- and 10-inch diameter. Each bollard is capable of immobilizing a 15,000 lb. (metric) vehicle going up to 40 mph (metric) with less than a 50-foot penetration depth.

Model B-30 features three operation modes further allowing tailored control solutions for any type of facility or environment. Automatic (hydraulic and pneumatic) operation of the bollard system requires minimal surveillance and is ideal for areas requiring continual operation and access. Manual bollards are best suited for facilities requiring a higher level of security where constant guard is kept, and removable bollards are typically used as temporary traffic diversions.

Arranged independently or engineered to work as a set, the Model B-30 Bollard System incorporates dual speeds for normal operation (4-5 seconds) and emergency fast operation (2-3 seconds) for when immediate deterrence is required. The bollards also features three operating methods including card reader activation, push button and vehicle detector to suit the entry/exit characteristics of any operation.
