Abstract
Vertical bars extend downwardly from the structural siderails of a trailer frame to a guard bar extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the trailer, thus forming a side underride guard. Two side underride guards are fixed to the structural siderails of the trailer. The guard bars are located vertically below the bed of the trailer to have an effective ground clearance of twenty-seven inches. Lateral bracing of each guard bar extends from the guard bar to the structural siderail across the trailer. Bracing at the trailing end of the side underride guards employs a K-brace to provide an air brake hose non-chafing zone. The K-brace is displaced from the trailer bed.
