Overview
The EN 13749:2021/prA1 standard, titled "Railway applications - Wheelsets and bogies - Method of specifying the structural requirements of bogie frames", is a key technical document developed by the European Committee for Standardization (CEN). This standard specifies a comprehensive method for defining the structural requirements of bogie frames used in railway vehicles. It covers design procedures, assessment methods, verification protocols, and manufacturing quality criteria to ensure the durability, safety, and performance of bogie frames, including integral parts such as bolsters and axlebox housings.
Its scope explicitly addresses the structural demands on bogie frames and all functional attachments like damper brackets, providing a structured approach for manufacturers and engineers involved in railway bogie design and production.
Key Topics
EN 13749:2021/prA1 covers essential aspects to guide the design and evaluation of bogie frames:
Structural Design Requirements
Defines the mechanical strength and durability prerequisites of bogie frames to withstand operational loads and environmental conditions.Load Assessment and Analysis
Specifies methodologies for calculating static and dynamic loads, including transverse loads applied on axles, ensuring the bogie frame’s structural integrity under various operating scenarios.Verification and Testing Procedures
Outlines protocols for validating frame performance through simulations, physical testing, and inspections to comply with safety and functional standards.Manufacturing Quality Control
Establishes quality assurance procedures during production, focusing on material selection, fabrication processes, and dimensional accuracy to maintain standard compliance.Functional Attachments Integration
Includes design considerations for ancillary components such as bolsters, axlebox housings, and damper brackets, guaranteeing holistic frame performance.
This edition serves as an amendment to the original EN 13749:2021, refining specific clauses like load specifications to enhance clarity and applicability.
Applications
The standard has critical practical value in the railway industry:
Railway Vehicle Manufacturers use it to develop bogie frames that meet European safety and quality standards, ensuring reliable vehicle operation and passenger safety.
Component Suppliers apply the standard to design and deliver compatible axlebox housings, bolsters, and brackets integrated with bogie frames.
Rail Operators and Maintenance Organizations benefit from the verified structural specifications to assess fitness-for-service of bogies during inspections and scheduled maintenance.
Certification Bodies rely on the standard to assess compliance for new railway vehicles and components entering the European market.
Implementing EN 13749:2021/prA1 helps streamline design workflows, reduce risks of structural failures, and promote interoperability of railway wheelsets and bogies across Europe.
Related Standards
EN 13749:2021/prA1 complements several other railway standards focused on materials, safety, and structural requirements:
EN 13103 - Pertains to wheelsets and axle design requirements, closely linked to bogie frame structural considerations.
EN 14363 - Defines the testing of running behavior and track compatibility, related to bogie frame dynamics.
EN 15085 - Addresses welding quality for railway vehicles, applicable during bogie frame manufacturing processes.
EN 12663 - Covers structural requirements for railway vehicle bodies, working in conjunction with bogie frame standards for complete vehicle safety.
By aligning design and verification with these standards, engineers ensure robust, safe, and compliant railway vehicle assemblies.
