4.0 SoftStop® System Site Preparation
The SoftStop® System is a tangent, single-sided, energy-absorbing, redirective and gating end terminal system that
state/specifying agency specify for use as speci ed by the appropriate state/specifying authority in conjunction with
W-beam guardrail on the shoulder or median of a roadway. The decision to specify the SoftStop® System for a particular
project is the responsibility of the state/specifying agency design engineer who must ensure that the most appropriate
end terminal has been selected for the speci c site conditions.
Important: Do not attach the SoftStop® System directly to a rigid barrier (i.e. concrete barrier, wall or
bridge pier) without the use of a state/specifying agency approved transition.
Important: Ensure that the SoftStop® System assembly conforms to the local road design standards.
Important: Ingal Civil Products does not direct grading. Proper site grading must be accomplished
before assembly of the SoftStop® System in accordance with road controlling guidelines and
requirements. Failure to follow this warning could result in serious injury or death in the event of a
vehicle impact or collision.
