 note = {On-site full-scale tests are important to understand what happens to guard fences when vehicles collide with them. However, such tests requiring large inputs of both time and money have not been well modeled through the use of computer simulations. The purpose of the research presented in this paper is to model the  full-scale tests conducted for single-slope concrete guard fences struck by heavy trucks. First, the on-site full-scale static loading test is modeled by investigating the ground boundary of the single-slope concrete guard fence. Then, the on-site full-scale crash test is simulated by developing finite element method (FEM) models for both heavy trucks and single-slope concrete guard fences. Comparing the results generated from computer simulations and on-site experiments demonstrates that the developed models can be applied to simulate the collision of heavy trucks with single-slope concrete guard fences and further to provide the data to design new guard fences and analyze existing ones., 6th Asia-Pacific conference on Shock & Impact Loads on Structures, December 7-9, 2005, Perth, W.
