One vehicle crash test was conducted on a temporary precast concrete barrier. The test conditions and parameters were determined by an actual accident which resulted in a lawsuit against the State of California. The purpose of this test was to replicate the accident in defense of the lawsuit and provide research in large angle vehicle impacts with this type of barrier. The test involved a 1975 Toyota Celica (1330 kg) impacting a temporary precast concrete barrier placed in a simulated freeway median at 74 deg and 81.2 km/h.

Three temporary construction zone traffic barriers were crash-tested to determine their performance in redirecting vehicles, barrier deflection and resisting damage: a 12-in. timber curb, a 16-in. high timber curb, with a corrugated-beam steel rail bolted to the face (W-beam timber curb), and New York's standard portable precast-concrete median barrier.

The Federal Highway Administration has mandated that temporary concrete barriers (TCBs) used on federally funded projects on the National Highway System advertised after October 1, 2002 shall meet the requirements of National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 350. The State's present TCB system design is not approved as meeting the NCHRP 350 requirements, and even with modifications it is not likely to meet those standards. The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) and Arizona industry partners are to evaluate many key factors in the ADOT's effort to develop an NCHRP 350 compliance plan for TCBs. Arizona intends to adopt the most valid non-proprietary TCB design, out of already approved designs, for future use in Arizona.
