Organization: ACI
Publication Date: 1 November 2012
Status: active
Page Count: 38
scope:

Design criteria specifically recognize the unique features of concrete transit guideways-namely, guideway/vehicle interaction, rail/structure interaction, special fatigue requirements, and aesthetic requirements in urban areas. Criteria are based on current state-of-the-art practice for moderatespeed (up to 100 mph [160 km/h]) vehicles. Application of these criteria for advanced technologies other than those discussed in this guide requires an independent assessment.

AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications (AASHTO 2012) and ACI 343R are referenced for specific items not covered in these recommendations, including materials, construction considerations, and segmental construction.
