CALCULATION OF THE CROSSWISE DISTRIBUTION OF AXIAL FORCES IN LARGE RAIL BRIDGES USING THE STIFFNESS COEFFICIENT METHOD

BERECHNEN DER QUERVERTEILUNG VON ACHSKRAEFTEN BEI MASSIVEN EISEHBAHNBRUECKEN NACH DEM STEIFEZAHLVERFAHREN

The railways' stipulations regarding the distribution of the pressure of ballast across the track (lateral distribution) vary. The author gives a method of calculating how the horizontal and vertical forces are distributed for various types of sleeper and ballast in the case of central and excentric track positions. The aim is to arrive at uniform stipulations. He uses the stiffness coefficient method and applies it at three levels sleeper, ballast and track slabs.
