SASO Compliance & Technical Specifications
Matkel’s precast concrete barriers meet SASO 2321 and SBC 1001 standards for traffic safety structures. Each unit weighs 480 kg. This mass ensures stability against wind loads and vehicle impact in KSA’s desert climates. The C30/37 concrete grade resists spalling during summer peaks that routinely exceed 45°C. Standard dimensions lock at 120×120×55 cm. We also stock modular variants for tight urban corridors.
Pricing & Cost Per Meter Breakdown
Wholesale pricing scales with order volume. Single-unit rates start at SAR 265 per barrier. Bulk orders of 50+ units drop to roughly SAR 220 per meter. This translates to SAR 440–550 per linear meter installed. All quotes include VAT unless exported. Our sales team provides a live cost-per-meter calculator for highway or industrial site layouts.

FAQ: Common Questions for Contractors
What are concrete barriers and their main uses in Saudi Arabia?
Precast concrete barriers are heavy-duty traffic control units used to separate lanes, protect construction zones, and secure highway medians. They prevent vehicle crossover and reduce crash severity across KSA’s expanding infrastructure network.
How much do precast concrete barriers cost per meter in Saudi Arabia?
Costs range from SAR 220 to SAR 265 per individual unit. Linear meter pricing averages SAR 440 to SAR 550 depending on quantity, finish, and delivery distance to project sites.
What are the standard dimensions and weights of Jersey barriers in Saudi projects?
The standard SKU YT-09416842 measures 120×120×55 cm and weighs 480 kg. Modular versions adjust to 80×100×50 cm for pedestrian zones, while highway models reach 250×100×50 cm.
Which is better for highway projects: precast or cast-in-place concrete barriers?
Precast barriers install faster and require zero curing time on-site. Cast-in-place barriers offer custom heights but demand formwork and 7-day strength testing. Matkel recommends precast for time-critical roadworks.
