During many public events, authorities use vehicles or concrete blocks to protect the crowd from a hostile vehicle ram through . Is it an option?
From the video above, we can see that relying solely on normal concrete block for crowd protection during public events proves ineffective. The driver of a truck can effortlessly push the concrete block open by driving in between the blocks or even directly at them. The hostile vehicles can easily push the concrete block placed and gain entry into the protected zone. Various test carried out shows that the concrete blocks are totally ineffective to stop the hostile vehicles. After pushing the concrete block aside, the hostile vehicle can still move around inside the secure zone to create more damage, posing a significant threat to the public area or secure zone. The gap can also allow more hostile vehicles to enter, creating a bigger mess.
Pitagone F11 & F18 system has undergone multiple real crash test in Germany, Australia, United Kingdom, at different speed as well as different impact angle. They are also tested under real road condition, ( not with a new set of soft tarmac ).
Besides the numerous crash test, Pitagone system offers the following features which are unmatched by any other system :
- Ergometric design & Truly portable
Each unit weight between 38-43 kg ( depending on model) but has its own wheel system to allow user to easily push the unit from the rack to set up and back to the rack when you need to keep the system. There is no need for the users to do any lifting of the unit during set up and demob.
To allow authorised vehicles to pass thru the gaps, the user merely need to push the units 90 degree aside with very little effort. This will greatly increase thru-put to minimise traffic congestion.
- Excellent storage system
Each system comes with their own racking or security boxes which helps to keep the units properly. Each security box can hold 12 units of the system and be stacked up to 2 tier.
