Railway Applications - Track - Concrete Sleepers and Bearers - Part 6: Design
Also Known As:
The DIN EN 13230-6 standard is a document that focuses on standardizing the design of concrete sleepers and bearers in railway track applications. The objective of this standard is to provide specific design guidance and criteria in various areas related to the design of these components.
This standard covers several important aspects, such as defining service categories for different sleeper designs. It also includes guidelines for deriving design loads, which take into account dynamic impact factors. The standard provides calculations for determining design bending moments, which is crucial for ensuring the structural stability of the sleepers and bearers. Additionally, it offers recommendations for the selection of dimensions, which play a significant role in the overall performance and safety of the track system.
