43、4730 “Railway applications Track Aluminothermic welding of rails” is composed of two parts: Part 1: Approval of welding processes Part 2: Qualification of aluminothermic welders, approval of contractors and acceptance of welds This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the Europ

44、ean Commission and the European Free Trade Association. According to the CEN-CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organisations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Fin

This laboratory approval wi

47、ll provide the railway authority with sufficient information for tests in the track if required. BS EN 14730-1:2017g8g17g3g883g886g889g885g882g487g883g483g884g882g883g889g3g525g8g5266BS EN 14730-1:2017EN 14730-1:2017 (E) 7 1 Scope This European Standard defines the laboratory tests and requirements

48、for approval of an aluminothermic welding process using welds produced in workshop conditions. It applies to the joining of new Vignole rails as described in EN 13674-1 of the same profile and steel grade. Compliance with the requirements of this standard does not of itself ensure the suitability of

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