Abstract

Joint and stiffener system for a highway guardrail, which highway guardrail is composed of essentially vertical guardrail pillars (1) installed at a distance from one another and of essentially horizontal rails (2) fixed to them, which rails are open profiles, the open part of which is directed towards the guardrail pillar (1), and which joint and stiffener system comprises a joint part/stiffener part (4). The invention is implemented such that the joint part/stiffener part (4) is installed at least partly inside the rail (2), and that the joint part/stiffener part (4) is a closed profile.
