THE HIPEBA PROJECT PROGRESSES STEADILY TOWARDS ITS FINAL STAGE
The project HIPEBA (‘High Performance Steel for Safer and more Competitive Safety Barriers’) is entering its final stage as a number of final deliverables will be released in the weeks to come. The final outputs of the project will include a prototype product – including computer simulation -, a sustainable cost model for high performance steel barriers, and a societal cost-benefit analysis.
HIPEBA is a 36-month R&D project funded by the Research Coal and Steel Services (RFCS) that aims to develop safer and more competitive road restraint systems. STA leads the project’s communication and dissemination efforts.
