CEN - EN 13481-2

Railway applications - Track - Performance requirements for fastening systems - Part 2: Fastening systems for concrete sleepers in ballast

active, Most Current
Organization: CEN
Publication Date: 1 July 2022
Status: active
Page Count: 22
ICS Code (Construction of railways): 93.100
scope:

This document is applicable to fastening systems in Categories A - E as specified in EN 13481-1:2012, 3.1 for use on concrete sleepers in ballasted track with maximum axle loads and minimum curve radii.

The requirements apply to:

- fastening systems which act on the foot and/or web of the rail including direct fastening systems and indirect fastening systems;

- fastening systems for rail sections included in EN 13674-1 (excluding 49E4) or EN 13674-4.

This document is not applicable to fastening systems for other rail sections, rigid fastening systems or special fastening systems used at bolted joints or glued joints.

This document is for the type approval of complete fastening systems.
