Summary
Rails, in both plain line and switches & crossings, can sustain considerable damage and wear as a result of normal traffic. Weld repairs are an alternative to premature renewal with the advantage of considerable cost savings.
This specification details the weld repairs which are permitted, together with associated requirements and the procedures which shall be followed using the specific electric-arc welding processes.
