Rockfall protection barriers ROCCO: More reliable than standards require

The flexible rockfall barriers from the ROCCO® range meet all existing standards worldwide. This includes the vertical drop test, which is the toughest test according to the EAD 340059-00-0106 standard. Impacts in the border fields, hits outside the center of the net and support rope separations are not prescribed in any guideline; however, the Geobrugg ROCCO® barriers have tested these real life impacts on a maximum energy 1:1 scale and mastered the challenge.
