Experimental Research of New Tram Track Construction Operating Fatigue Capacity

Article Preview

Abstract:

The results of dynamical fatigue testing of natural tram track fragment are presented. The fibrous concrete (foundation) was used in track superstructure, the rubber pads “PREFArails” were used for noise and vibration reduction. The cycle testing results analysis demonstrated that “PREFArail” pads ensure the overall structure operability over not less than 25 years without repair. The recommendations for pads and fibrous concrete foundation use on tram tracks in Saint-Petersburg were given.
