11-10-2023
This document:
—establishes the design process for switches and crossings (S&C), and the use of the other parts of this standard;
—specifies the geometric design principles for wheel guidance;
—establishes the basic limits of supply;
—establishes the applied forces and their adequate support;
—specifies tolerance levels.
These are illustrated herein by application to a turnout. The main switch and crossing components are represented in turnouts and the principles used in turnouts apply equally to more complex layouts.
