    The document provides design details and stability calculations for a crash barrier. It includes dimensions and weights of the crash barrier, friction slab, and earth fill. Moment and sliding force calculations are shown to check overturning and sliding stability. The factor of safety against overturning is 3.0328 which is greater than 0.5, and against sliding is 2.0805 which is greater than 1.5, indicating the design is stable.
