How Many Guardrail Posts Can Be Driven Per Minute
Installation rate is what turns a barrier quantity into a programme duration, and it is one of the first questions a contractor asks when planning a run.

The Working Rate
In the general case the pile driver can drive one post every one to two minutes, depending on the condition of the road.
What Changes the Rate
Ground condition is the variable. Soft soil takes the post more readily than compacted or stony ground, so the rate quoted is a general case rather than a guarantee for a specific alignment.
Planning a Run
Post spacing is set by the road authority specification for the barrier being installed. Take the post count from the spacing and the run length, then apply the driving rate to estimate the programme.
