LOADING OF THE RAIL REGARDED AS A BEAM

BEANSPRUCHUNG DER SCHIENE ALS TRAGER

The author presents a procedure whereby rail loading as a result of bending, eccentric imposition of load, internal, thermal and other stresses, as well as the ballast coefficient, can be determined. From data and formulae presented, it is possible to calculate the permissible speed and axle loading for a given rail profile. The condition of the soil foundation and the ballast bed are also considered in this study.
