Njengoba intuthuko yezinto zokwakha nobuchwepheshe iqhubeka, uhlelo lwe-Thrie Beam kulindeleke ukuthi luthuthuke nakakhulu ekusebenzeni nempumelelo, luvikele indawo yalo ezicelweni ezizayo zokuphepha emgwaqeni.
11. I-FAQ
I-Thrie Beam guardrail iwuhlobo lwesivimbelo sokuphepha esiseceleni komgwaqo esinesiqephu esiphambanayo samagagasi amathathu. Iklanyelwe ukumunca amandla futhi iqondise kabusha izimoto ezingahle zichezuke emgwaqeni, kuthuthukise ukuphepha kubashayeli nabahamba ngezinyawo.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails inikeza amandla aphakeme kanye nokumelana nomthelela uma kuqhathaniswa nezinhlelo zamagagasi amabili ezivamile. Idizayini yabo inciphisa ukungena kwemoto ngesikhathi ishayisana, inciphise ukulimala okungase kube khona nokulimala kwempahla. Zihlala isikhathi eside, okuzenza zifanelekele izindawo ezinezimoto eziningi nezinobungozi kakhulu.
Ukucushwa kwamagagasi amathathu kuvumela ukumuncwa kwamandla okungcono ngesikhathi sokuphahlazeka, okusiza ukuvimbela imoto ukuthi ingaphenduki noma yephule umgoqo. Lo mklamo ulawula ngempumelelo amandla okuba nomthelela, uqondise imoto ukuthi ibuyele emgwaqeni kunokuba uyivumele ukuthi ibhodloze umzila wokuqapha.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails ivame ukusetshenziswa ezindaweni zezinguquko ezifana nezindlela zamabhuloho, izindawo zokuphuma zemigwaqo emikhulu, kanye nemigwaqo enesivinini esikhulu lapho ingozi yokuhamba inkulu khona. Ziphinde zithandeke ezindaweni ezinemimango noma izithiyo eziyingozi eziseduze.
Insimbi enamandla amakhulu iyinto eyinhloko esetshenziswa ngenxa yokuqina kwayo nokukwazi ukumelana nemithelela emibi. Amanye amasistimu angase futhi ahlanganise ama-coatings amelana nokugqwala ukuze andise ukuphila kwawo ezimeni ezihlukahlukene zemvelo.
Nakuba zombili izinhlobo zisebenzisa inhloso yokuqukatha izimoto, i-Thrie Beam guardrails ngokuvamile isebenza kangcono ezimeni zokuphahlazeka ngenxa yokwakhiwa kwazo okuqinile. Idizayini enamagagasi amathathu ivumela ukumuncwa kwamandla okukhulu kanye nokuqondisa kabusha kwemoto okuthuthukisiwe uma kuqhathaniswa nomklamo wamagagasi amabili we-W-Beam.
Imihlahlandlela ye-OSHA ithi unqenqema olungaphezulu lwama- guardrails e-Thrie Beam kufanele lube phakathi kwamayintshi angu-39 no-45 ngaphezu kwendawo yomgwaqo, nobude obujwayelekile obungamayintshi angu-42 kanye noma kususe amayintshi angu-3. Lobu bude busiza ukuqinisekisa ukuqukatha okusebenzayo ngenkathi kufinyeleleka ukuze kulungiswe.
Ukuhlola okuvamile kubalulekile ukuze kubhekwe umonakalo ongokomzimba, ukugqwala, nokuqondanisa. Ukuhlanza imfucumfucu nokuqinisekisa ukubonakala komaka okubonisayo nakho kubalulekile. Noma yiziphi izimpawu zokuguga kufanele kubhekwane nazo ngokushesha ukuze kugcinwe izindinganiso zokuphepha.
Ukufakwa kuqala ngokuhlolwa kwendawo kanye nokulungiswa, okuhlanganisa nokususa indawo kanye nokuqinisekisa ukugeleza kwamanzi ngendlela efanele. Okuthunyelwe kusethwa emhlabathini ngezikhathi ezithile, futhi izingxenye ze- guardrail zinamathiselwe ngokuvikelekile. Ukufakwa kufanele kuhambisane nemithetho yendawo kanye neziqondiso zokuphepha ukuze kuqinisekiswe ukusebenza kahle.
Ukusetshenziswa nokufakwa kwe-Thrie Beam guardrails kulawulwa izinhlangano ezifana ne-American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) kanye ne-Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). Le mizimba ihlinzeka ngemihlahlandlela mayelana nokuklama, izinto zokwakha, kanye nezinqubo zokufaka.
Izici zemvelo ezifana neqhwa, iqhwa, nemvula enamandla zingaba nomthelela ekubonakaleni nasekusebenzeni kwama- guardrails. Ezifundeni ezineqhwa, kubalulekile ukuqinisekisa ukuthi imigqa yokuqapha ihlala ingenalutho ekunqwabeleni kweqhwa, kuyilapho ezindaweni ezijwayele ukukhukhula, ukudonsa amanzi ngendlela efanele endaweni yokufaka kubalulekile.
Ngokulungiswa nokunakekelwa okufanele, i-Thrie Beam guardrails ingahlala noma kuphi kusukela eminyakeni engama-20 kuye kwengama-30. Ukuhlolwa okuvamile nokulungiswa ngokushesha kubalulekile ekwandiseni impilo yabo yesevisi.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails iye yahlolwa kabanzi ngokuphahlazeka futhi ngokuvamile ibonisa ukusebenza okuqinile ekuqondiseni kabusha izimoto kanye nokunciphisa ubunzima bomphumela. Ziklanyelwe ukuhlangabezana noma ukweqa izindinganiso zokuphepha ezibekwe izinhlangano ezihlukahlukene ezilawulayo.
Izinselelo zihlanganisa ukubhekana nezwe elingalingani, ukuqinisekisa ukuhleleka okufanele nobude, kanye nokuthobela imithetho yendawo. Ukwengeza, ukufakwa ezindaweni ezinomthamo omkhulu wethrafikhi kungaba yinkimbinkimbi ngokohlelo futhi kungase kudinge amasu okuphatha ithrafikhi.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails ingaba yingxenye yesu eliphelele lokuphepha emgwaqeni elihlanganisa izimpawu, izibani, nezimpawu zomgwaqo. Lokhu kuhlanganiswa kusiza ukuthuthukisa ukuqwashisa abashayeli futhi kunciphisa amathuba ezingozi.
Ezindaweni zasemadolobheni, ama-guardrails kufanele acabangele ukuphepha kwabahamba ngezinyawo kanye nokukhathazeka kobuhle. Angase adinge ukufakwa eduze kwemizila yethrafikhi futhi aklanyelwe ukunciphisa ukuvinjelwa okubonakalayo kuyilapho ehlinzeka ngezinyathelo zokuphepha ezisebenzayo.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails ngokuvamile inezindleko eziphakeme zokuqala ngenxa yempahla yazo kanye nezidingo zokufakwa. Kodwa-ke, ukuqina kwazo kanye nesidingo esincishisiwe sokushintshwa kungaholela ekongeni kwezindleko zesikhathi eside.
Ngokuvimbela izimoto ukuthi zingashiyi umgwaqo, izinsimbi zokuqapha i-Thrie Beam zinciphisa kakhulu ingozi yezingozi ezimbi kakhulu, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezisengozini enkulu. Basiza ukugcina ukulawula kwezimoto ngesikhathi sokushayisana futhi kuvimbele ukugingqika.
Ukusungulwa kwakamuva kufaka izinto ezithuthukisiwe ezithuthukisa ukuqina nokuvumelana nezimo, amadizayini akhulisa ukubonakala (njengama-elementi akhanyayo), kanye nobuchwepheshe obuthuthukisiwe bokudonsa amandla okuphahlazeka obuthuthukisa ukuphepha.
I-Thrie Beam guardrails isungula imingcele ecacile yabashayeli, ikhuthaza ukuziphatha okuphephile kokushayela ngokunciphisa izimo zokuduka kwezimoto eziphuma emgwaqeni. Banikela ekuphepheni komgwaqo kukonke, okungathuthukisa ukuhamba kwethrafikhi ngokunciphisa izingozi.
