Railway applications - Design requirements for steps, handrails and associated access for staff - Part 2: Freight wagons

This European Standard specifies the minimum requirements for ergonomic and structural integrity of steps and handrails used together to give staff access to freight wagons. It does not cover ladders, top platforms and top gangways.
It defines in particular the required spaces necessary for handling of screw couplings with side buffers, for shunter handrails, for shunter’s stand, for steps and handrails.
This European Standard also defines their dimensions, positions, limits for durability and functionality.
It also defines the general requirements for the access to tail lights for freight wagons.

Bahnanwendungen - Konstruktionsanforderungen an Tritte, Handgriffe und zugehörige Zugänge für das Personal - Teil 2: Güterwagen

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Mindestanforderungen für Ergonomie und Strukturfestigkeit von Tritten und Handgriffen fest, die gemeinsam verwendet werden, um dem Zugpersonal Zugang zu Güterwagen zu ermöglichen. Leitern, obenliegende Arbeitsbühnen und Laufstege liegen nicht im Anwendungsbereich dieser Norm.
Sie legt insbesondere die Freiräume fest, die für den Gebrauch von Schraubenkupplungen mit Seitenpuffern, für Kupplergriffe, für den Rangiererstand, für Tritte und für Handgriffe erforderlich sind.
Diese Europäische Norm legt ebenfalls deren Abmessungen, Positionen sowie die Grenzen für die Haltbarkeit und Funktionalität fest.
Sie legt auch die allgemeinen Anforderungen für den Zugang zu Schlusssignalen für Güterwagen fest.

Applications ferroviaires - Exigences pour la conception des marchepieds, mains courantes et accès destinés au personnel - Partie 2 : Wagons

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences minimales d’intégrité ergonomique et structurelle des marchepieds et des mains courantes utilisés ensemble pour permettre l’accès du personnel aux wagons. Elle ne couvre pas les échelles, les quais supérieurs et les passerelles supérieures.
Elle définit notamment les espaces nécessaires à prévoir pour manoeuvrer les attelages à vis entre tampons latéraux, pour les mains courantes de manoeuvre, pour la plate-forme de manoeuvre, pour les marchepieds et pour les mains courantes.
La présente Norme définit également leurs dimensions, leurs positions et les limites associées à leur résistance et leur fonctionnement.
Elle définit aussi les exigences générales relatives à l’accès aux signaux de queue de train pour les wagons.

4.2 Steps 4.2.1 General Steps shall be made with non-slip surface. This should be a metal grating, see Figure 1, Pos. 1 or Pos. 2. For all other solutions the following characteristics shall be fulfilled:  Resistance to friction The average value of the friction coefficient measured in three directions (lengthwise, breadthwise and diagonally) shall reach the following minimum values: a) in dry condition
= 0,65 b) in wet condition (water) = 0,65 c) in oiled condition
= 0,30 Friction coefficient values shall be ascertained by means of a 100 mm × 100 mm movable plate, on which a rubber pad with 80 shore hardness shall be glued; this plate shall be loaded with a weight of 75 kg. For the measurements carried out with water and oil, the grating shall be fully immersed. SIST EN 16116-2:2014
