This document specifies requirements for rolled products (plate and sheet) which contribute to the structural properties of the railcar bodyshell and of other major structural components.It specifies particular requirements regarding qualification, quality control, material properties and dimensional tolerances are specified. Furthermore, guidelines for application and use are given.NOTESome of the products listed in the present standard may be subject to patent or patent applications, and their listing herein does not in any way imply the granting of a licence under such patent right.CEN/TC 132 affirms that it is its policy that in the case when a patentee refuses to grant licenses on standardised standard products under reasonable and not discriminatory conditions, then this product is removed from the corresponding standard.
