Spec Sheet:

Wind Resistance

All temporary traffic barriers must be able to withstand three different classes of wind speeds with the use of a ballast. The standard BS 8442:2015 states the three classes as the following:

Class A: 26.3 m/s (58 mph)
Class B: 17.6 m/s (39 mph)
Class C: 8.7 m/s (19 mph)

The Q-Fence Barrier system with Multifit Bases was tested under strict conditions at the Full Scale Wind Tunnel at Mira to determine at which wind speeds the barrier can withstand. Below are the results and guides as to the recommended ballast weight for each Wind Class:

Class C
Withstood up to 23 mph.
Ballast Weight per block: 0 kg
Class B
Withstood up to 39.6 mph.
Ballast Weight per block: 30 kg
Class A
Withstood up to 58.2 mph.
Ballast Weight per block: 66 kg
