Vehicle and personal barrier for construction site
View Patent ↗A modular combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier for a construction site and having upright post members with retention channels, spaced apart from each other, vehicle barrier members of predetermined length and height and having supports at each end, engagable with the channels on the posts, an intermediate fence rail extending between the posts adjacent to the upper extremity of the vehicle barrier members, and, personal fence panels located between the posts, and extending above the intermediate fence rails.
1. A combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier construction site fence system comprising:
a plurality of upright post members spaced apart, the members defining length and upper and lower ends, and each said post member having an H shaped transverse cross section from said upper end to said lower end throughout its length;
pairs of retention side flanges defined by said H-shaped cross section, on opposite sides of each of said post members, and extending from said upper end to said lower end;
base plates attached transversely to said lower ends of said post members adapted to stand on the ground;
pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members of predetermined modular length and height and defining predetermined upper edges;
end support connectors on each end of each said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier member inter-engageable between respective pairs of said side flanges on said post members
an intermediate transverse fence rail of predetermined channel shape and of modular length extending between said post members on the upper edges of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members; said intermediate transverse fence rail forming a downwardly open channel fitting over and receiving said upper edges of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members, and,
personal fence panels located between said post members, defining a predetermined modular width, and height and extending above said intermediate fence rails and above said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members.
2. The combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier construction site fence system as claimed in claim 1 wherein said intermediate fence rail is secured to said upright post members by generally right angular brackets.
3. The combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier construction site fence system as claimed in claim 2 wherein the vehicle barrier members define a predetermined length, and wherein said personal fence panels comprise rectangular frames, formed with a length corresponding to the length of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members and fitting between respective upright post members, and generally L-shaped brackets securing said rectangular frames to said upright post members.
4. The combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier construction site fence system as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the personal fence panels further comprise wire mesh material supported in said frames, permitting pedestrians to view the work on the construction site.
5. A combined pedestrian and vehicle barrier construction site fence system comprising ;
a plurality of upright post members spaced apart, each of said post members defining upper and lower ends, and having an H shaped transverse cross section throughout its length;
pairs of retention side flanges defined by said H-shaped cross section, on opposite sides of said post members;
base plates attached transversely to said lower ends of said post members adapted to be secured to the ground;
pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members of predetermined modular length and height and defining predetermined upper edges;
end support connectors secured to each end of each said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier member inter-engageable between respective pairs of said side flanges on said post members
an intermediate transverse fence rail of predetermined modular length extending between said post members adjacent to the upper edges of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members; said fence rail forming a downwardly open channel fitting over said upper edges of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members, secured to said upright post members by generally right angular brackets and,
personal fence panels located between said post members, defining a predetermined modular width, and height and extending above said intermediate fence rails and above said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members; wherein said personal fence panels comprise rectangular frames, formed with a length corresponding to the length of said pre cast concrete vehicle barrier members and fitting between respective upright post members, and generally L-shaped brackets securing said rectangular frames to said upright post members, and
wherein each post member defines in transverse cross section a central web, and two pairs of side flanges extending on opposite side of said web, for engaging said ends of said precast concrete barriers, and ends of said intermediate fence rail, and said frames of said personal panels.
