EN 13674-2:2006

Railway applications - Track - Rail - Part 2: Switch and crossing rails used in conjunction with Vignole railway rails 46 kg/m and above

This part of EN 13674 specifies switch and crossing rails that carry railway wheels. These are used in conjunction with Vignole railway rails.
This part of this standard is not applicable for the check rails that do not carry railway wheels.
Eight pearlitic steel grades are specified covering a hardness range of 200 HBW to 390 HBW and include non heat treated non-alloy steels, non heat treated alloy steels, heat treated non-alloy steels and heat treated low alloy steels.
There are 30 rail profiles specified in this standard, but they may not all be available in all steel grades.
Rails specified in EN 13674-1:2003 may also be used as switch and crossing rails and if so used they shall comply with the requirements of EN 13674-1:2003.

Bahnanwendungen - Oberbau - Schienen - Teil 2: Schienen für Weichen und Kreuzungen, die in Verbindung mit Vignolschienen ab 46 kg/m verwendet werden

Dieser Teil der EN 13674 enthält Festlegungen für radtragende Schienen für Weichen und Kreuzungen, die in Verbindung mit Vignolschienen eingesetzt werden.
Dieser Teil dieser Norm gilt nicht für Radlenkerschienen, die nicht von Eisenbahnrädern befahren werden. Derartige Schienen sind in prEN 13674-3 festgelegt.
Acht perlitische Stahlsorten in einem Härtebereich zwischen 200 HBW und 390 HBW sind festgelegt. Die Schienen sind entweder nicht wärmebehandelt und bestehen aus Kohlenstoff-Mangan-Stahl bzw. legiertem Stahl oder sind wärmebehandelt und bestehen aus Kohlenstoff-Mangan-Stahl bzw. niedrig legiertem Stahl.
In dieser Norm sind 28 Schienenprofile festgelegt, aber nicht alle Profile müssen in jeder Stahlsorte verfügbar sein. Für die Profilgrenzabmaße gelten die Festlegungen in prEN 13674-1.
Die in prEN 13674-1 festgelegten Schienen dürfen auch als Schienen für Weichen und Kreuzungen verwendet werden. Sie müssen dann die Anforderungen nach prEN 13674-1 erfüllen.

Applications ferroviaires - Voie - Rails - Partie 2: Rails pour appareils de voie utilisés avec des rails Vignole de masse supérieure ou égale à 46 kg/m

La présente partie de la Norme européenne spécifie les appareils de voie qui supportent les roues du train. Ceux-ci sont utilisés en association avec les rails Vignole.
Cette partie de norme n'est pas applicable pour les rails de sécurité qui ne supportent pas les roues; ce type de rails est couvert dans le prEN 13674-3.
Huit nuances d'acier perlitique sont spécifiées représentant une fourchette de dureté comprise entre 200 HBW et 390 HBW. Ces nuances d’acier comprennent les aciers non alliés et non traités thermiquementau carbone manganèse, les aciers alliés non traités thermiquement, les aciers non alliés traités thermiquement au carbone manganèse, les aciers faiblement alliés traités thermiquement.
28 30 profils de rail sont spécifiés dans la présente norme mais ils peuvent ne pas être disponibles dans toutes les nuances d’acier. Les tolérances de rectitude sont celles spécifiées pour la classe B dans le prEN 13674-1
Les rails spécifiés dans l’EN 13674-1:2003 peuvent être aussi utilisés pour la confection d’appareils de voie et dans le cas d’une telle utilisation, ils doivent être conformes aux exigences de l’EN 13674-1:2003.

held where it does not, thus ensuring continued safety as new manufacturers, products and technologies are introduced. The most commonly used standards of the world for the supply of railway rails have been reviewed during the preparation of this European Standard. However, modern rail production technology within the European Union has demanded a completely new look at the philosophy and content of this part of EN 13674. Whenever possible this part of EN 13674 is performance based, recognises the European Quality System standard EN ISO 9001 and requires manufacturers to offer the latest proven technology to consistently satisfy the demanding quality of the required product. Rail grading is based on hardness rather than tensile strength. The acceptance tests have been designed to control those characteristics of the rail steel and rail that are of relevance to the production of high quality rails and the demands of the railway. The steel grades covered by this part of EN 13674 reflect trends in railway usage and heat treated rails are included. The standard includes rail profiles for switch and crossing rails used in conjunction with Vignole rails having a linear mass 46 kg/m and above. To ensure the supply of high quality rails, some restrictions on production processes have been imposed. This European Standard supersedes other standards covered by the scope. In addition CEN required, where possible, a performance based standard, taking into account safety implications and at the same time addressing modern production technology. It was recognised that there would be few opportunities (and these would have to be for transparent safety considerations) for derogation from this European Standard to operate between the user and the manufacturer. This European Standard reflects this change in philosophy from the traditional content of rail standards. A review was undertaken of the most commonly used rail standards of the world. All relevant aspects important to both user and manufacturer were considered with the aim of ensuring that all of the content had specific usefulness and relevance. For example rail grading and much of this European Standard has been based on hardness rather than tensile strength. Whilst the two are directly related, hardness is very quick and cheap to carry out and provides more relevant guidance to the user particularly where properties vary in different parts of the profile. Since many rail manufacturers would not have previously carried out proving trials, the standard includes a prerequisite for all manufacturers t
