The DIN EN 16729-3 standard specifies the non-destructive testing (NDT) methods used for detecting both internal and surface defects in rails installed in track. The standard outlines the suitability of each method for detecting and evaluating typical rail defects. However, it is important to note that this standard does not provide specific information on the assessment criteria for rail defects or the corresponding actions to be taken in response to these defects.
Additionally, this standard only applies to rail profiles that meet the requirements outlined in EN 13674-1. It aims to ensure that the NDT methods used are effective in identifying defects in rail infrastructure, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of railway systems.
