Introduction
A Truck Mounted Attenuator (TMA), or crash cushion, is specifically designed to ensure the safety of the driver, workers and pedestrians. Attenuators provide security in safely transporting equipment from one work zone to another.
Crash Cushion Vehicle which are paramount for safety when working near roads.
A Crash Cushion Vehicle is intended to reduce injuries and to save lives of motorists and construction personnel in work zones. It acts as a protective cushion device intended to absorb high-energy kinetic impact.
Crash Cushion Vehicles are parked on the roads in front of work location with warning signs and road diversion / lane block signage to indicate and alarm the motorists to reduce speed and to exercise caution about the work in process.
Crash Cushion Vehicles / Truck-mounted attenuators (TMA), are mounted on specially fabricated trucks to be struck from behind, and absorb vehicle impact. State work zone regulations often specify a minimum buffer barrier between the attenuator truck and the work area, and a minimum mass for the TMA truck, to minimize the chances that it will be pushed forward by a crash into the workers or machinery.
