Capabilities:
• Most have limited ability to delay penetration
• Can be used as a platform for detection sensors
• Some can also be helpful in obscuring targets or even predetonating certain standoff weapons

2.2 Vehicle Barrier Systems

Barrier systems are used to defend against the moving vehicle bomb threat. Of Two types:
• Passive
• Active

Design is based on capacity to absorb or dissipate kinetic energy of threat vehicle allowing no more than the maximum allowed penetration. Almost all systems are tested to prove performance. You should be weary of using any product that hasn’t been tested

2.2.1 Passive Vehicle Barriers

Barrier is stationary and it is designed to prevent the vehicle from penetrating successfully past barrier.
Sometimes incorporated into perimeter barrier / fence.
Insure Containment of Unscreened or Suspect Vehicles; only permit access through access points.
Can often use topographical features as passive vehicle barriers.

2.2.2 Active Vehicle Barriers

Selection Based on Required Operational Performance and Site Conditions.

Potential Threat Must be Quantified
• Kinetic Energy - I.e. 15,000 lb vehicle at 40 mph
• Angle of Approach

Barrier is Selected such that can Absorb the Kinetic Energy While Not Allowing Penetration That Exceeds the Allowable for the Site
