BS EN 16771:2016EN 16771:2016 (E) 5 Introduction This standard defines the approval procedure for aluminothermic welding processes for grooved rail welding through laboratory tests of welds produced

21、in a workshop. This laboratory approval will provide the railway authority with sufficient information for tests in the track if required. BS EN 16771:2016EN 16771:2016 (E) 6 1 Scope This standard defines the laboratory tests and requirements for approval of an aluminothermic welding process using w

22、elds produced in workshop conditions. It applies to the joining of new, grooved rails as described in EN 14811 of the same profile and steel grade. Welding of construction profiles and machined profiles are not covered in this standard. Compliance with the requirements of this standard does not in i

23、tself ensure the suitability of a welding process for specific conditions of track and traffic. The standard does not cover welds made between different rail sections, worn rails or different rail grades. In addition to the definitive requirements, this standard also requires the items detailed in C

24、lause 4 to be documented. For compliance with this standard, it is important that both the definitive requirements and the documented items be satisfied. 2 Normative references The following documents, in whole or in part, are normatively referenced in this document and are indispensable for its app

25、lication. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.
