Standard dimension of concrete speed breaker
The standard dimensions of a concrete speed breaker, also known as a speed hump or speed bump, can vary depending on the location, traffic volume, and speed limit. However, here are some general guidelines on the typical dimensions of concrete speed breakers:
- Length: Typically ranges from 6 to 12 meters (20 to 40 feet) in length.
- Width: Typically ranges from 0.5 to 1.5 meters (1.6 to 4.9 feet) in width.
- Height: Typically ranges from 0.1 to 0.3 meters (0.3 to 0.9 feet) in height.
- Thickness: Typically ranges from 0.2 to 0.5 meters (0.6 to 1.6 feet) in thickness.
The American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) recommends the following dimensions for concrete speed breakers:
- Length: 9 to 12 meters (30 to 40 feet)
- Width: 0.9 to 1.2 meters (3 to 4 feet)
- Height: 0.15 to 0.30 meters (0.5 to 1 foot)
- Thickness: 0.3 to 0.5 meters (1 to 1.6 feet)
The Indian Road Congress (IRC) recommends the following dimensions for concrete speed breakers:
- Length: 6 to 12 meters (20 to 40 feet)
- Width: 0.5 to 1.2 meters (1.6 to 4 feet)
- Height: 0.1 to 0.3 meters (0.3 to 0.9 feet)
- Thickness: 0.2 to 0.5 meters (0.6 to 1.6 feet)
It's important to note that these are general guidelines, and the actual dimensions of a concrete speed breaker may vary depending on the specific location and traffic conditions.
