The average compressive strength results obtained from 150 mm cubes and 100×200 mm cylinders at 28-days of curing are 26.3 MPa and 21.6 MPa, respectively. The PVC tubes with thickness of 3.5 mm and a diameter of 100 mm were cut to the length of 700 mm as shown in Fig.
How much force can a bollard withstand?
At the high-end, Bollards are constructed to completely stop most vehicles; a “Defense” Bollard can withstand up to 300,000N and continue to operate (i.e. a truck traveling at high speed).
