The DIN EN 13232-2 standard focuses on the geometric design principles for wheel guidance in railway track switches and crossings. It defines the basic limits of supply, including the applied forces and their proper support. The standard also establishes tolerance levels for these components.
The standard provides illustrations and examples of the application of these design principles to turnouts. Turnouts represent the main switch and crossing components and serve as a basis for understanding and implementing the principles of geometric design. It highlights that the principles used in turnouts can be extended to more complex layouts.
