La présente norme s'applique uniquement à la qualification d’un système de fixation complet.

Železniške naprave - Zgornji ustroj - Zahteve za izdelavo pritrdilnih sistemov - 4. del: Pritrdilni sistemi za jeklene prage

Ta evropski standard se uporablja za pritrdilne sisteme iz kategorij A do C in E iz točke 3.1 standarda EN 13481-1:2012 za ravne jeklene prage pri zgornjem ustroju s tamponskim slojem, ki imajo največjo osno obremenitev in najmanjši krivinski polmer v skladu s preglednico 1. Zahteve se uporabljajo za: – pritrdilne sisteme, ki delujejo na vznožje in/ali stojino tirnice, vključno z neposrednimi in posrednimi pritrdilnimi sistemi; – pritrdilne sisteme za dele železnice iz standardov EN 13674-1 (razen 49E4) in EN 13674-4+A1. Ta standard se ne uporablja za pritrdilne sisteme za druge dele železnice, toge pritrdilne sisteme ali posebne pritrdilne sisteme, ki se uporabljajo pri zakovičenih spojih ali zlepljenih spojih. Ta standard se uporablja samo za odobritev tipa celotnega pritrdilnega sestava.
