Bibliography

This European Standard specifies requirements for the approval of a welding process in a fixed plant, together with the requirements for subsequent welding production.This European Standard applies to new Vignole rails welded by flash butt welding to crossing components in a fixed plant, and intended for use on railway infrastructures.
