European foreword
This document (EN 13230-3:2016) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 256 “Railway
applications”, the secretariat of which is held by DIN.
This document supersedes EN 13230-3:2009.
This European Standard shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an
identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by November 2016, and conflicting national standards
shall be withdrawn at the latest by November 2016.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and the
European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive 2008/57/EC.
For relationship with EU Directive 2008/57/EC, see informative Annex ZA, which is an integral part of
this document.
This European Standard is one of the EN 13230 series “Railway applications – Track – Concrete sleepers
and bearers”, which consists of the following parts:
— Part 1: General requirements
— Part 2: Prestressed monoblock sleepers
— Part 3: Twin-block reinforced sleepers
— Part 4: Prestressed bearers for switches and crossings
— Part 5: Special elements
— Part 6: Design
There is a change in the wording of the documents of EN 13230 (series) “design bending moment” is
replaced by “characteristic bending moment” and “test bending moment”.
According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the
following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria,
Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia,

Introduction
This part of the EN 13230 series defines the specific requirements dedicated to twin-block reinforced
sleepers.
These are additional requirements to EN 13230-1:2016 that are necessary to have a complete standard
dealing with twin-block reinforced sleepers.
The document specifies the test arrangements and the test procedures to implement and also the
corresponding acceptance criteria just as the design approval tests.
It also specifies the steel connecting bar characteristics and the design criteria for incorporating the
steel connecting bar within the twin-block reinforced sleepers.
