how to select/ design crash barriers
 
In the US, it's based on traffic volume. Take a look at Chapter 6 of the NYSDOT Bridge Manual, which provides guidance on selecting barriers and railings. States DOT's generally have pre-designed barriers. AASHTO LRFD Chapter 13 provides design specifications. If you need a design example look at the Minnesota DOT Bridge Manual.

Thanks bb...

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?
