23、e variation; c) the rail profile to be used; d) the nominal rail inclination and its acceptable variation; e) the maximum static and dynamic rail seat reaction, and the maximum lateral force to be supported (see annex B); f) any specific requirements to ensure that installation of the sleepers and t

24、rack maintenance can be undertaken effectively using the procedures available to the purchaser; g) any specific requirements for the packaging and protection of sleepers in transit; h) whether an electrical resistance test is required and the minimum resistance to be achieved.2 BSI 11-2000 BS 500:20

25、00 3.3 Information to be supplied by the manufacturer when tendering to supply The following information shall be supplied by the manufacturer and fully documented: a) a dimensioned and toleranced drawing of the sleeper that is to be supplied; b) the sleeper mass; c) a statement of how the manufactu

26、rer will ensure that all sleepers meet the requirements of this specification. Sufficient detail, including the grade of steel, shall be provided to enable the purchaser or a third party to verify that the manufacturer is adhering to the stated method; NOTE Advice on achieving a consistent and verif

27、iable performance is given in annex A. d) the results of the cyclic loading tests specified in 5.1; e) the results of the sleeper lateral resistance measurements specified in 5.2; f) if electrical isolation of the rail from the sleeper is required, the results of the electrical resistance test speci

28、fied in 5.3; g) the method by which any specific requirements of the purchaser in relation to installation of the sleepers in track and the subsequent maintenance of the track have been met 3.2.1f); h) where the purchaser has no specific packaging or protection arrangements, the method of packaging

29、which will be used, including stack size; i) if the purchaser has specified the fastening system, the maximum and minimum track gauge and rail inclination possible. 4 Sleeper dimension The soffit width shall be such that the ballast pressure under a force equal to the maximum static rail seat reacti

30、on shall not exceed 0.5 MN/m 2 , assuming this load to be uniformly distributed over a length of 0.8 m, unless otherwise specified by the purchaser (see B.5.1). To ensure that this can be achieved, the sleeper soffit shall be continuous for at least 450 mm on either side of the rail seat centre line

31、 except for small apertures necessary for fastening attachment. 5 Type approval tests 5.1 Cyclic loading resistance The cyclic loading resistance determined in accordance with annex C shall be not less than 2.4 times the dynamic rail seat reaction see 3.2.1e). This test shall be repeated when there

32、is any change in the sleeper design or manufacturing process which might affect fatigue performance. NOTE The results of the tests required by annex C are reported in terms of the total vertical load, i.e. twice the rail seat reaction. An additional factor of 1.2 has been applied to allow for the po

33、tential loss of section in service through corrosion. 5.2 Lateral resistance The lateral resistance of the sleeper in a ballast box containing uncompacted ballast shall be not less than 4.5 kN when tested in accordance with annex D. 5.3 Electrical resistance If the rail is to be electrically insulat

34、ed from the sleeper, the resistance of the assembly shall be tested in accordance with annex E. 6 Marking Sleepers shall be durably marked with the following information: a) the identification mark of the manufacturer; b) the last two figures of the year of manufacture; c) the sleeper type. The mark

35、ing shall be clearly visible with the sleeper installed in track.BS 500:2000 BSI 11-2000 3 Annex A (informative) Advice on achieving and verifying product consistency A.1 General Subclause 3.3c) requires the manufacturer to submit to the purchaser a statement of the means to ensure that the performa

36、nce requirements of this specification are consistently achieved. It is recommended that the primary route to product performance and consistency is control of materials and of the production process. Areas where particular attention should be paid are given in A.2 to A.5 below. Verification by test

37、, for example the measurement of critical dimensions, is always necessary but the frequency of such testing may be relaxed as confidence in the control of the production process grows. Repetition of the tests undertaken prior to tender to demonstrate the products performance is only necessary if the

38、 design, materials or the production process is changed from that used to produce the sleepers tested to provide the data reported in accordance with clause 3. A.2 Quality assurance In order that adherence to the procedures used to ensure consistency can be verified, it is necessary that they can be

39、 documented. This is best achieved through the implementation of a formal quality system. It is recommended that: the sleeper designer should operate an independently approved and audited quality system conforming to the requirements of BS EN ISO 9001; the sleeper manufacturer should operate an inde

40、pendently approved and audited quality system conforming to the requirements of BS EN ISO 9002; all testing should be undertaken by a test house operating an independently approved and audited system procedure conforming to the requirements of BS EN ISO 9002 or BS 7501; and that the adoption of thes

41、e standards forms part of the submission. A.3 Materials and processing The statement should define the steel grade to be used and the steps that the supplier will take to verify the steel conforms to the specification. EXAMPLE “Sleepers shall be manufactured from steel conforming to EN 10025-72, gra

42、de Fe360B OPT BS: chemical composition and tensile properties shall be determined once per cast”. The production process should also be defined. EXAMPLE “Sleepers shall be hot-rolled to shape with a finishing temperature of. . Spade ends will be cold formed”. A.4 Attachment of rail fastenings The fa

43、tigue strength of the sleeper will usually be crucially dependent on the method of attachment of the rail fastenings. Where a welded attachment is used, the welding process and procedure should be stated and the nature and frequency of post welding quality checks, for example magnetic particle inspe

44、ction or verification of the throat thickness. The consumables to be used should be defined. If the fastenings or their housings are to be attached by holes, the method of producing the holes (drilling, punching, etc.) should be stated; also whether de-burring will be undertaken and the checks to be

45、 made and their frequency to confirm the absence of cracks or tears in finished sleepers. A.5 Geometry The statement should include a demonstration (for example, drawings showing the effect of combining components at the limits of their permitted tolerance) that the requirements for gauge and rail i

46、nclination of clause 3.2.2b) and d) are met by the design, assuming nominal dimensions for the rail. The statement should also describe the gauges or other means that will be used to verify that the key dimensions are within the required tolerances. Of particular importance are the rail seat inclina

47、tion and the position of the rail fastening locating points. The frequency with which key dimensions will be verified should be stated.4 BSI 11-2000 BS 500:2000 Annex B (informative) Estimation of the maximum rail seat reactions and lateral forces B.1 General Where no information is available on the

48、 rail seat reactions to be expected at track irregularities, the following method of estimation is recommended. B.2 Symbols For the purposes of this annex the following symbols apply. d is the track gauge in millimetres (mm) +50 (mm); E is the Youngs modulus for the rail in meganewtons per square me
