ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to a combination precast concrete traffic barrier element and a precast C-shaped retaining wall, and a method of constructing a traffic barrier using the element on the vertical face of the retaining wall. The barrier element is a profiled reinforced block of concrete having a bottom surface with a longitudinally extending channel therein. The traffic barrier element is supported on the retaining wall. U-shaped anchoring bars project from an interior portion of the traffic barrier element and from the top surface of the retaining wall to form an oval keyway the length of the longitudinal channel. A locking bar arrangement is inserted through the keyway in a locking relationship with the U-shaped anchoring bars. Concrete is then injected throughout the longitudinal channel and allowed to harden, thus providing a sealed and locked joint.
