Railway applications - Wheelsets and bogies - Method of specifying the structural requirements of bogie frames

This document specifies the method to be followed to achieve a satisfactory design of bogie frames and includes design procedures, assessment methods, verification and manufacturing quality requirements. It is limited to the structural requirements of bogie frames including bolsters and axlebox housings. For the purpose of this document, these terms are taken to include all functional attachments, e.g. damper brackets.

Bahnanwendungen - Radsätze und Drehgestelle - Festlegungsverfahren für Festigkeitsanforderungen an Drehgestellrahmen

Dieses Dokument legt das Verfahren fest, das für eine zufriedenstellende Konstruktion von Drehgestellrahmen anzuwenden ist, einschließlich Entwicklungsverfahren, Bewertungsverfahren, Prüfung und Qualitätsanforderungen für die Herstellung. Es beschränkt sich auf die Festigkeitsanforderungen von Drehgestellrahmen einschließlich Traversen und Radsatzlagergehäusen. Für die Anwendung dieses Dokumentes beinhalten diese Begriffe alle funktionellen Zusatzeinrichtungen, z. B. Dämpferhalter.

Applications ferroviaires - Essieux montés et bogies - Méthode pour spécifier les exigences en matière de résistance des structures de châssis de bogie

Le présent document spécifie la méthode à suivre pour réaliser une conception satisfaisante des châssis de bogie et comprend les modes opératoires de conception, les méthodes d'évaluation, ainsi que les exigences relatives à la vérification et à la qualité de fabrication. Il se limite aux exigences structurelles des châssis de bogie, incluant les traverses de charge et les corps de boîtes d'essieu. Pour les besoins du présent document, ces termes sont considérés comme comprenant toutes les fixations fonctionnelles, comme les supports d'amortisseurs par exemple.
