System DesignSelf-Contained BackupThe REACT 350 ® II system with a Self-Contained Backup is intended to minimize assemblytime. This type of system arrives at the site fully assembled. The assembly crew needs only tolift and place the system in front of the barrier then drill and set the anchors. Refer to the“Assembly” section on Page 22 for a complete list of instructions.Hazard WidthGenerally, the REACT 350 ® II system with a Self-Contained Backup can shield obstacles to 203mm [8”] wide in a gore application. This type of system can also shield wider hazards in nongoreand bidirectional traffic locations (See “Bidirectional Traffic” on Page 14 and “Offsetting theSystem” on Page 15). Please contact Energy Absorption Systems for additional wide hazardinformation (See Page 3).When shielding median barriers (813 mm [32”] tall safety shape), a Self-Contained Backup maybe used if the base or “toe” of the barrier is tapered to a total width of 330 mm [13”] (See Figure5).Taper "Toe" ofBarrierFigure 5Tapered BarrierGuardrail AttachmentHardware is available to mount W-beam guardrail or a safety shaped barrier to the Self-Contained Backup of the REACT 350 ® II system. A folded Transition Plate and W-beamconnector can mount to either or both sides of the backup assembly (See Figure 6). Ifbidirectional traffic is present, special post spacing, rail, and rub-rail will be required for theguardrail.www.energyabsorption.com Revision A July 2013www.highwayguardrail.com 13 All rights in copyright reserved

It is important thatthe Self-Contained Backup does not become a hazard to the reverse direction traffic. If asystem is placed in a location where traffic will be approaching from the rear of the system,transition hardware may be required.Optionally, if space permits, the REACT 350 ® II system may be offset so that the backupstructure is shielded by the hazard (See “Offsetting the System” on Page 15). Guardrailtransition hardware may also be used.Figure 7Bidirectional Trafficwww.energyabsorption.com Revision A July 2013www.highwayguardrail.com 14 All rights in copyright reserved
