28、s. Most civil engineering railway infrastructure was built before the introduction of CR-INS-TSI and Eurocodes for the design of structures. This European Standard defines a line classification system for infrastructure managers and railway undertakings to manage the interface between load limits fo
29、r railway vehicles and payload limits for freight wagons and the vertical load carrying capacity of a line. The line classification system takes into account parameters such as: axle load (P), mass per unit length (p), geometrical aspects relating to the spacing of axles, speed and provides a transp
30、arent method for determining whether the vertical loading characteristics of vehicles are compatible with the load carrying capacity of lines on the network. BS EN 15528:2008Licensed Copy: Wang Bin, ISO/EXCHANGE CHINA STANDARDS, 12/09/2008 01:59, Uncontrolled Copy, (c) BSIEN 15528:2008 (E) 6 1 Scope
31、 This European Standard describes methods of classification of existing and new railway lines and the categorisation of vehicles. The standard specifies the technical requirements for ensuring the compatibility of the interface between vehicle and infrastructure. The standard is suitable for use on
32、freight, passenger and mixed traffic lines and contains requirements relevant to: classification of the vertical load carrying capacity of railway infrastructure; design of railway vehicles; determination of payload limits of freight wagons. A summary of the classification of infrastructure and cate
33、gorisation of vehicles is given in Annex B. The assessment of the vertical load carrying capacity of civil engineering structures, track, sub-grade and earthworks by the use of the load models defined in Annex A permits the classification of infrastructure into line categories. This European Standar
34、d identifies on which lines vehicles are compatible to the infrastructure under normal operation conditions without further checks regarding vertical load effects. The methodology described in this European Standard is not valid for high speed rail traffic. Tilting traffic and the working of rail mo
35、unted plant and cranes etc. are also outside the scope of this European Standard. This European Standard does not cover the system used in Great Britain, where all lines and vehicles are to be classified in accordance with the RA (Route Availability) System. A guide to the equivalent categories in a
36、ccordance with this European Standard is given in Annex C. This European Standard does not cover requirements relating to the maximum total mass or maximum length of a train. The requirements of this European Standard do not replace regulations relating to e.g. dynamic wheel/rail contact force limit
37、s, vehicle ride considerations, vehicle structural design limitations etc. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

48、e use of a classification system using line categories permits easy understanding of the load-related compatibility of infrastructure and vehicles. The line category as the result of the classification process represents the ability of the infrastructure (track, track substructures, earthworks, brid
49、ges and structures) to withstand the vertical loads imposed by vehicles on the line or section of line for regular service. Lines shall be classified into different line categories. Each line category (A, B1, B2, C2, C3, C4, D2, D3, D4, D4xL and also E4 and E5) is defined by the capacity of a line to withstand the loads represented by load models based on reference wagons defined by the three characteristics shown in Annex A: axle load; mass per unit length; geometrical characteristics of the spacing of axles.
