Foreword

This document complies with the provisions of GB/T 1.1-2020 "Standardization Work Guidelines Part 1: Structure and Drafting Rules of Standardization Documents". Drafting.

This document is Part 2 of GB/T 31439 "Wave-beam steel guardrails". GB/T 31439 has already published the following parts.

— Part 1: Two-wave beam steel guardrail;

— Part 2: Three-wave beam steel guardrail.

This document supersedes GB/T 31439.2-2015 "Wave-beam steel guardrails - Part 2: Three-wave-beam steel guardrails". (The last part, "and GB/T 31439.2-", appears to be a standard version of GB/T 31439.2 and is not directly related to the document's standard.) Compared to 2015, aside from structural adjustments and editorial changes, the main technical changes are as follows.
