Limitations and Warnings
Trinity Highway, in compliance with NCHRP-350,
contracts with ISO 17025 A2LA accredited testing
laboratories to perform crash tests, evaluate tests, and
submit the test results to the FHWA for review.
The SRT™ 31 System has been deemed eligible by
FHWA as meeting the requirements and guidelines of
NCHRP Report 350, Test Level 3 (“TL-3”). These tests
typically evaluate product performance defined by
NCHRP Report 350 involving a range of vehicles on
roadways, from lightweight cars (approx. 800 kg [1800
lb.]) and full size pickup trucks (approx. 2,000 kg [4,400
lb.]) at 100 kph [62 mph].
The SRTTM 31 System is tested pursuant to the test
matrix criteria of NCHRP Report 350 as designated
by FHWA. The FHWA tests are not intended to
represent the performance of systems when
impacted by every vehicle type or in every impact
condition existing on the roadway. Every departure
from the roadway is a unique event.
Trinity Highway expressly disclaims any warranty or
liability for injury or damage to persons or property
resulting from any impact, collision or harmful contact
with its products, other vehicles, or nearby hazards or
objects by any vehicle, object or person, whether or not
the products were assembled in consultation with
Trinity Highway or by third parties.
The SRT™ 31 System is intended to be assembled,
delineated, and maintained within state/specifying
agency and federal guidelines. It is important for the
state/specifying agency specifying the use of a highway
product to select the most appropriate product
configuration for site specifications.
The state/specifying agency’s careful evaluation of
the site layout, vehicle population type and speed,
traffic direction, and visibility are some of the
elements that require evaluation in the selection of
a highway product. For example, curbs could cause
an untested effect on an impacting vehicle.
After an impact with the system, all debris must be
removed from the area immediately in compliance with
the most applicable state/specifying agency policy. The
specified SRT™ 31 System must be evaluated and
restored to its original specified condition or replaced
as the state/specifying agency determines/requires, as
soon as possible. Product selection, approval, proper
installation, and maintenance of any highway product is
the sole responsibility of the state/specifying agency
and the state DOT.

contractor performing the assembly of the system at the state/specifying agency’s site.

TrinityHighway.com 13 Created November 2021
Site Preparation
The SRT™ 31 System is a straight flared, single-sided, re-directive, and gating end terminal. It may be
specified for use by the state/specifying agency in conjunction with strong post W-beam guardrail systems
on the roadside or median of a roadway. The decision to specify the SRT™ 31 System for a particular
project is the responsibility of the state/specifying agency design engineer who must ensure that the most
appropriate end terminal has been selected for the specific site conditions.
The SRT™ 31 System is designed to be attached to strong post W-beam guardrail systems that have been
accepted under NCHRP Report 350 crash test criteria that use either no offset blocks, 8” [203 mm] offset blocks
or 12” [305 mm] offset blocks.
Important: The SRT™ 31 System must not be attached directly to a weak post W-beam
guardrail system without an approved weak-post-to-strong-post transition plus a
minimum of 12’-6” [3.81 m] strong post W-beam guardrail with 6’-3” [1.91 m] post
spacing. The 12’-6” [3.81 m] strong post W-beam guardrail must be placed between the
SRT™ 31 System and the weak-post- to-strong-post transition.
Important: The SRT™ 31 System must not be attached directly to Thrie Beam, Thrie
Beam Transition, or to a post which is stronger/stiffer than a standard W-beam W6x8.5#
[W150x13] or W6x9# [W150x13.5] guardrail post. A minimum of 6’-3” [1.91 m] strong
post single ply W-beam guardrail must be placed between the SRT™ 31 System and the
Thrie Beam transition (or stronger/stiffer post).
Important: Do not attach the SRT™ 31 System directly to a rigid barrier (i.e. concrete
barrier, wall or bridge pier) without the use of a state/specifying agency approved
transition.
Important: Ensure that the SRT™ 31 System application conforms to the AASHTO
Roadside Design Guide.
Important: Trinity Highway does not direct grading. Proper site grading must be
accomplished before assembly of the SRT-31 System in accordance with local
guidelines OR the AASHTO Roadside Design Guide (see Appendix A), whichever is
more stringent. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death in
the event of a vehicle impact with the system.
Important: The Beginning Length of Need (“BLON”) for the SRT™ 31 System was
established during NCHRP Report 350 Test 3-35 at Post #3, which is 12’-6” [3.81 m] from
the center of Post #1.
Important: A minimum of 75’ [22.86 m] of strong post W-beam guardrail with 6’-3”
[1.90 5m] post spacing must be placed between two SRT™ 31 Systems when installed
with both an approach and departing end on NCHRP Report 350 TL-3 roadway
applications. For roadway applications that meet the NCHRP Report 350 Test Level 2
(TL-2) or Test Level 1 (TL-1) criteria, the SRT™31 TL-3System can be placed “end to
end”, if specified and approved by the state/specifying agency. The minimum installation
length for TL-2 and TL-1 applications is 81'-3" [24.77 m] long consisting of two (2) 40’-7
1/2” Systems or two (2) 34’-4 1/2” Systems plus one (1) 31” high, 12’-6” strong post single
ply 12 gauge W-beam guardrail system.

TrinityHighway.com 14 Created November 2021
SRT™ 31 System Post Placement
The SRT™ 31 System posts may be inserted into the soil using an auger or post pounding equipment
for placement of guardrail posts. If an auger is used, ensure diameter is large enough to allow for proper
compaction of state/specifying agency approved fill material. All SRT™ 31 System posts must be
assembled within established standard construction tolerances, including being plumb. Compaction for
all posts must be within state/specifying agency guidelines.
Danger: It is the responsibility of the installer to ensure all above & below ground utilities
as well as drainage structures are located, marked, and identified prior to using an auger
or post pounding tool in accordance with state/specifying agency guidelines. Failure to
follow this warning could result in serious injury or death.
Rigid Pavement and Rock
If rigid pavement (e.g. concrete or asphalt) of any thickness is encountered within the system pay length,
ensure a proper “leave-out” area (the specified size of open space as defined in the AASHTO Roadside
Design Guide) is provided around the posts and filled with state/specifying agency approved backfill
material. See Appendix B for “leave-out” requirements of the SYTP®.
If rock is encountered within the system pay length, follow the criteria as defined in the AASHTO Roadside
Design Guide. See Appendix C for requirements for the assembly of the CR Post 1 Bottom or SYTP®.
Drilling Holes into Rock
Caution: It is the responsibility of the installer to consult Occupational Safety & Health
Administration (“OSHA”) silica respiratory standard 29 Code of Federal Regulation (“CFR”)
1910.134 for debris removal and ensure compliance.
Assembly Steps
NOTE: The order in which the steps appear in this manual are not necessarily the order
in which they must be followed. ALL STEPS MUST BE COMPLETED.
Important: Trinity Highway does not direct grading. Proper site grading must be
accomplished before assembly of the SRT™ 31 System in accordance with
state/specifying agency guidelines OR the AASHTO Roadside Design Guide (see
Appendix A), whichever is more stringent. Failure to follow this warning could result in
serious injury or death in the event of a vehicle impact with the system.
Note: Below ground portions in the assembly steps are not shown for clarity.
