About This Product

■Product overview

Jointly developed by industry top runners from the National Railroad Association and experts from various fields. A protective fence that implements the design required by the "Guidelines for the Maintenance of Protective Fences that Consider the Landscape."

■Joint development with the National Railroad Association

The selection of a protective fence, including its design, was often left to the discretion of the individual. However, the newly issued guidelines state that what is important is not the production of individuality, but the creation of order and harmony controlled as an infrastructure. There is now a need for a protective column that can put this into practice. The National Railroad Association established a committee with the participation of Professor Koichi Amano of Nihon University, Mr. Kazuhiko Ando of the Civil Engineering Research Center, and Mr. Noboru Ito of Planning Network Co., Ltd., and has developed a new era bridge vehicle protection fence. That is MODEST. The guidelines require future protective fences to be simple, have transparency in mind, and have a reduced presence. Modesto, which has the meaning of the word "modest," is a product that meets all of these requirements and aims to thoroughly improve the design quality in every detail.

■Realizes a neat and slim form

Conventional products were generally characterized by a bulky shape with an emphasis on safety and a constriction at the bottom for shock absorption and deformation. Modesto maintains the same functions as the previous model, but has a slim and unconstricted form. This has made it possible to create a landscape that looks natural both inside and outside the bridge. Both steel and ductile cast iron versions have the same design.

■Advanced protection and design philosophy

Its main feature is that it has a gentle and soft design due to the use of curved lines in the shape of the pillars. The beam fixing bolts have round heads, and other measures have been taken to ensure safety for pedestrians. Due to aesthetic considerations, the Modesto has only horizontal beams, including a fall prevention section. The purpose is to reduce the sense of clutter and line-of-sight obstruction caused by the vertical grid. Furthermore, for aesthetic reasons, we have made the standard painting specifications from the three recommended colors, and we have not set specifications that require only hot-dip galvanizing. Check out Modesto's design philosophy reflected in other details.
