Availability: Find a library where document is available Abstract: The European Committee for Normalization (CEN) decided in 1990 to initiate a standardization program in the field of road equipment. For this purpose, a technical committee was created -- TC 226. On the occasion of its first meeting in April 1990, TC 226 entrusted Working Group 1 (WG1) with the standardization of safety barriers, crash cushions, and, in a general way, road restraint systems. This article briefly discusses the European objectives, the basis for standardization, the work of TC 226/WG1, the choice of performances, and acceptance criteria.
