Terminology help

Recommended Posts

What are those things, I would call them pilings, but I guess that's just associate with docks.

 

These days, they sit mostly in front of buildings. They're usually around 3 ft tall and I don't know maybe 6 to 12 in diameter.

 

The fancy ones are retractable. Others have lighting built into them. Others are basically nothing more than a concrete Pole affixed to the ground.

 

You saw them crop up a lot after 9/11. Basically meant to deter trucks from driving into buildings and whatnot. Anybody know what these things are called?

 

Bonus round. Companies who manufacture them or the retractable kind?
