FIELD OF INVENTION

[0001] The embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to a system for vehicle impact resistance and in particular to a system to be implemented on turning on a road and along the sides of roads.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0002] The following description of related art is intended to provide background information pertaining to the field of the disclosure. This section may include certain aspects of the art that may be related to various features of the present disclosure. However, it should be appreciated that this section be used only to enhance the understanding of the reader with respect to the present disclosure, and not as admissions of prior art.

[0003] Previously a Pre casted H or Y Reinforced concrete cement block were proposed where frequent landslide occurs. The H and Y block height and width depends upon the slope and height of the mountain. The H blocks are designed in such a way that they are interlocked with each other in the form of steps. Such design of sloping blocks are being created to prevent pressure of landslide instead of straight vertical wall. Straight vertical wall cannot resist more pressure than sloping H blocks. Each of the H block has a circular hollow pipe penetrating throughout the block which consist of steel wire rope passing through every H block in the row. This steel wire rope is attached to the threaded pile which is being inserted deep inside the earth thus supporting H blocks. The thickness of the wire rope depends upon pressure on each block and risk of the landslide considering height and slope of mountain.

[0004] The threaded pile is also inserted horizontally into the earth crust increasing the firmness the H block. Certain gap is being created due to thickness of wire rope which is being looped around the wire that is passing through two H block. This gap also allows the excess ground water flow thus reducing the pressure on the block. It also acts like a screen which allows the flow of water and restricts the flow of pebbles. The uppermost H block is attached to the wire rope which passes under the tar road from one end to another end of the road. The other end of the rope is being tied to the threaded pile to acquire the desired support. Such design of uppermost H block prevents the vehicle from falling in the valley from any accident. Similarly pre cast Y block can be used to construct a straight wall. [0005] Therefore, there was a need in the art to provide a robust, reliable, and efficient hybrid technology to absorb vehicle impact and to divert the motion of impacted vehicle thus reducing fatal accidents.
