Railway Applications - Track - Acceptance of Works - Part 2: Acceptance of Reprofiling Rails in Plain Line, Switches, Crossings and Expansion Devices
Also Known As:
DIN EN 13231-2 is a European standard that focuses on the acceptance of reprofiling works for railway tracks. Specifically, it outlines the technical requirements and measurements for the longitudinal and/or transverse reprofiling of railway rail heads in various track components such as plain line, switches, crossings, and expansion devices. The standard applies to Vignole rails with a weight of 46 kg/m and above, as specified in EN 13674-1.
This standard is crucial for ensuring the quality and performance of reprofiled rail heads in railway tracks. It aims to establish uniform criteria and methods for assessing the acceptability of these reprofiling works. By defining technical requirements and measurements, DIN EN 13231-2 helps to ensure that the reprofiling process meets the necessary standards, thus promoting safe and efficient railway operation.
