Sound Barrier Design
Because all heights utilize steel stiffeners that are "sleeved" it provides the strength of a steel core and the flexibility of building at multiple heights, with a uniform post appearance. In addition, all posts are capped with a color matched vinyl pyramid cap. Note: On taller walls, footing sizes and depth depend greatly on soil conditions and need to be determined by the project site engineer.
Posts & Rails
The Tuf-Barrier™, when built at heights under 10', utilizes a .125" thick
steel tube for the core stiffener. The 1.5" x 2.5"
tube is set in the concrete footing at desired centers and the post "sleeve" is
slipped over the tube once concrete has se
The
Tuf-Barrier™, when built at heights exceeding 10', utilizes
a 4" x
4" steel I-beam for the post stiffener. Again, once the concrete has
set the vinyl post sleeve is slipped over and down the I-beam.
Both the STC 25 and the STC 32 Tuf-Barrier™ are available with or without the polystyrene insulator when the STC rating is flexible or not needed. Due to the strength and low maintenance of the T&G rails there are many other uses for the Tuf-Barrier™ such as sight barriers.
5 standard Tuf-Barrier™ colors with custom colors available for larger projects.
Please note that colors may be mixed for design
Purposes. Colors may not be exactly as shown,
Please call for noise barrier rail samples if needed.
