  • Publication number: 20230032875
    Abstract: A barrier system may include an impact receiving post having a sidewall defining an inner cavity. The impact receiving post may be bendable and may have a proximal end, a distal end, and a post length as measured from the proximal end to the distal end. An insert may be positionable within the inner cavity. The insert may have an insert proximal end, an insert distal end, and an insert length as measured from the insert proximal end to the insert distal end, the insert length being less than the post length. A foundation cage may be coupled to the proximal end of the impact receiving post. The foundation cage may include a plurality of members that form a three-dimensional lattice structure. The foundation cage may be configured for installation beneath a ground surface.

  • Publication number: 20220349137
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a bollard system including an impact receiving post and a foundation cage. The impact receiving post includes an outer surface, a proximal end, and a distal end. The foundation cage defines a three-dimensional lattice structure. The foundation cage is coupled to the proximal end of the impact receiving post and is configured for installation in concrete beneath a ground surface. The foundation cage defines a recess to receive a proximal portion of the impact receiving post. The foundation cage includes a horizontal stop member at least partially extending across the recess and supporting the impact receiving post and preventing the impact receiving post from extending further into the foundation cage before the concrete sets.
