BS EN 13232-2. Railway applications. Track. Switches and crossings for Vignole rails – Part 2. Requirements for geometric design
| Published By | Publication Date | Number of Pages |
| BSI | 2020 | 28 |
This document covers the following subjects:
-
the design process for switches and crossings, and the use of the other parts of this standard;
-
geometric design principles for wheel guidance;
-
definition of basic limits of supply;
-
applied forces and their adequate support;
-
tolerance levels.
These are illustrated herein by application to a turnout. The main switch and crossing components are represented in turnouts and the principles used in turnouts apply equally to more complex layouts.
