NB Mobile DeFence
Homologated FIA system
The NORDBETON concrete barriers can be upgraded with debris fence panels to comply with the FIA Standard 3502-2018 Debris Fences. The fully homologated solution can be used for city race circuits, permanent facilities or proving grounds.
Advantages:
- Fast and easy installation
- Full homologated according to FIA Standard 3502-2018
- Easy and quick to repair in case of an incident
The NORDBETON concrete barriers can be produced locally by using our moulds and key elements.
For safer race tracks
Concrete barrier
with patented connecting element
Nordbeton's precast concrete barriers according to FIA standards are used worldwide for all types of motorsport events. Our tested and patented connection element between the barriers ensures that impact energy is transferred to adjacent barriers and dissipated, keeping the vehicle on the safe side.
Benefits:
- Design based on FIA guidelines
- Quick and easy installation without additional fasteners
- Optional mounts for the installation of FIA-homologated debris fences
Double sided concrete barrier
In order to separate two race tracks that are close together, we developed the double-sided concrete barrier to reduce installation time and costs. This solution allows you to safely separate both race tracks with only one barrier.
Advantages:
- One line of barrier instead of two
- Fast and easy one step installation
- Optional sleeves for FIA debris fence panel installation
Pit Wall
Prefabricated elements allow a quick installation of the Pit lane. The pit wall barriers are equipped with sleeves for pit wall fence installation and have recesses for independent team wiring.
Advantages:
- Independent from job site progress manufacturing of precast pit wall elements
- Fast and easy installation on site
- Uniform appearance of the precast pit wall elements in comparison to on site constructed pit walls
- Equipped with sleeves for pit wall fence installation
Gate
We have gate solutions ready for the most common requirements such as:
- Pit wall gate for car access
- Pit wall gate for pedestrian access
- Concrete barrier gate for car access
The standard gates can be easily connected to the existing NORDBETON barriers.
Special gate solutions can be made availible upon request.
Crashtest
Successful crash test on our 6m racing steel gates for use on FIA Grade 1 racetracks in accordance with "FIA Standard 3502-2018" and "DIN EN 1317"
In addition to concrete barriers and safety fences, all other components of a race track safety system are also subject to the highest demands in the event of a crash. For us, it is therefore a logical conclusion, that the gates of a racetrack should also be part of a tested system. Another special requirement of gates is, that it is necessary to be able to open the gate after a crash, as the gate is both an escape route and an access route for emergency vehicles. For this reason, the gates usability must be fully guaranteed even after a direct impact by a vehicle.
Our highly developed steel gates, whether pedestrian gates, pit lane gates or the 4 metre and 6 metre variants for the track, have all been engineered for this emergency situation.
To prove this, we had a crash test based on the "FIA Standard 3502-2018" carried out on our largest racing steel gate, with an opening width of 6 metres, at "Crashtest-Service GmbH" in Münster in December last year.
The test looked like this: a vehicle weighing 1 tonne, at an angle of 20° and travelling at 120 km/h crashed into the centre of the gate without braking!
The result:
- our gate held and guided the vehicle back onto the track
- the gate was neither destroyed nor irreparably damaged
- the gate could be opened immediately and without tools, allowing emergency services to enter the track in the event of an accident
- the gate could be brought 100% back into shape and alignment with the concrete barrier, thanks to the adjustment options on the hinges
- Ongoing events on the racetrack do not have to be interrupted or even cancelled for a longer period of time for repairs, as there is usually no replacement gate available
A tested gate is another important step towards ensuring the safety of spectators, race track staff and drivers at motorsport events. We have proven with this crash test that you can rely on the safety of our gates!
Marshal Post
Marshal Posts are used to protect Marshals and track workers at dedicated locations which are defined by the FIA and the circuit designer.
The NORDBETON Marshal Post is consisting out of the U-shaped concrete base and the marshal post panels.
Advantages:
- Strong and flexible marshal post solution
- Fast and easy installation
- Based on proven design principles
- Optional sun and weather protection available
Local Production Training
We offer specialized local production training to ensure the consistent, high-quality manufacturing of our concrete barriers, even when project locations are far from our headquarters in Germany. Whether or not they have prior experience with precast concrete production, we ensure that every company can successfully produce the required barriers with the skills and knowledge gained during the training.
We provide detailed workshop drawings and on-the-job guidance, enabling these teams to produce our barriers to the same stringent standards we uphold in Germany. With experience in over 15 countries globally, our training ensures that every project can benefit from locally produced, top-quality concrete barriers, regardless of location. We are also available to provide ongoing support if necessary, ensuring the success of each project.
