8、 of the Normenausschuss Akustik, Lrmminderung und Schwingungstechnik (Acoustics, Noise Control and Vibration Engineering Standards Committee). It arose from the need to determine in the laboratory the parameters used to describe the static and dynamic properties of resilient elements used in railway
9、 tracks with particular regard to their subsequent installation conditions and to specify these parameters in product descriptions. The aim is to facilitate the comparison of different products and to enable their vibration-reducing effects to be calculated. By selecting resilient track components b
10、ased on the particular application and the prevailing conditions and constraints, the distribution of forces in the overall system can be improved by, for example, reducing the forces acting at individual track support points. This reduces the vibrations emitted into the environment when the frequen
11、cy of the vibration lies above a characteristic frequency. However, if the frequency of a vibration is close to that of this characteristic frequency, the vibration is often amplified. Depending on the position of the characteristic frequency and the transmission characteristics of the overall mecha
12、nical system, resilient elements can reduce vibration emissions and thus also diminish vibration immissions and structure-borne noise immissions in the environment, for example within buildings. It should, however, be noted that a track on a softer support system can vibrate more strongly, leading t
13、o increased noise emissions. DIN 45673 consists of the following parts, under the general title Mechanical vibration Resilient elements used in railway tracks: Part 1: Terms and definitions, classification, test procedures Part 2: Determination of static and dynamic characteristics in the track unde
14、r operation Part 3: Experimental evaluation of insertion loss from artificial excitation of mounted track systems (in a test rig and in situ) Part 4: Analytical evaluation of insertion loss of mounted track systems Part 5: Laboratory test procedures for under-ballast mats Part 6: Laboratory test pro

16、 for discrete rail supports1)1) Under preparation as a supplement to DIN EN 13146-9 which already contains a number of specifications on the determination of stiffness in rail fastening systems. 3 DIN 45673-1:2010-08 Amendments This standard differs from DIN 45673-1:2000-05 as follows: a) the title
17、and document structure have been modified; b) information on fitness for purpose and quality assurance has been included; c) measurement specifications for the various types of resilient elements used in railway tracks have been included in new parts of the standard. Previous edition DIN 45673-1: 20
18、00-05 4 DIN 45673-1:2010-08 1 Scope This standard defines terminology and specifies the general requirements to be met by laboratory test procedures for determining the parameters that are used to describe the static and dynamic properties of resilient elements used in railway tracks. The standard c
19、overs those parameters that are related to the effectiveness of a track structure in mitigating vibrations, that is, to reducing the emission of vibrations and structure-borne noise. The details of the laboratory test procedures for the various resilient elements and any special requirements that ha
20、ve to be met are specified in the corresponding parts of this standards series. Neither the present standard nor its corresponding parts can cover all conditions and constraints. The institution carrying out the testing is therefore responsible for ensuring that the parameters determined are suffici
21、ently reproducible. NOTE 1 Parameters of new resilient elements developed for use in railway tracks should be determined in a manner analogous to the specifications in this standards series. NOTE 2 In contrast, DIN 45673-2 is concerned with determining the parameters and characteristic functions of
22、resilient elements used in railway tracks from tests conducted on the running track under realistic excitation conditions. However, differences in the test conditions and constraints can mean that the parameters from tests on the running track and those from laboratory tests do not always agree. Thi
23、s standard classifies track systems equipped with resilient elements. It also specifies procedures for testing the fitness for purpose of resilient elements as well as providing information on quality monitoring as part of quality assurance procedures. 2 Normative references The following referenced

27、anent way installations and structural components that serve to transmit loads and guide railway vehicles EXAMPLES Rails, switch and crossing work, rail fastenings and rail bearing elements (sleepers, longitudinal bearers, track panels), gauge tie bars, ballast, ballast protection layers, frost prot
28、ection layers, surface coverings and track drainage systems, auxiliary track installations and buffer stops. NOTE The permanent way lies on top of the substructure; the substructure comprises the earthwork structures and engineering structures that support the track superstructure. 5 DIN 45673-1:201
29、0-08 3.1.2 conventional ballasted track track in which the upper surface of the rails is not at the same level as the areas between the rails and to the sides of the rails EXAMPLE The sleepers or the ballast are visible. 3.1.3 embedded track flush track street running track paved-in track track in w
30、hich the upper surface of the rails is at the same level as the areas between the rails and to the sides of the rails as these areas are covered with a surface covering NOTE Non-railway traffic can also travel over or across embedded track. 3.1.4 type of track category of track whose characteristics
31、 are defined by the particular combination of structural elements used in its construction EXAMPLE Floating (i.e. elastically supported) slab track on bridges with an elastic baseplate below the rail fastening and with a rail pad underneath the foot of the rail. 3.1.5 slab track type of track in whi
32、ch the rails are directly fastened by means of rail fastening elements to a rigid underlying slab NOTE The rigid underlying slab can be a track base plate made from concrete. 3.1.6 floating slab track system on discrete supports pMFS type of track made from the following structural elements: rail an
33、d rail fastenings, track base plate or track trough and resilient discrete supports that are located between the track base plate or track trough and the substructure EXAMPLES See Figures A.3 and A.4. 3.1.7 floating slab track system on continuous and semi-continuous supports fMFS type of track made
34、 from the following structural elements: rail and rail fastenings, track base plate or track trough with semi-continuous strip mats or continuous mats of elastomeric material located between the track base plate or track trough and the substructure EXAMPLE See Figure A.5. NOTE 1 An example of semi-c
35、ontinuous support is a system of elastomeric strip mats laid non-contiguously. NOTE 2 As a rule, a floating slab track system on a continuous support has a higher tuning frequency than a floating slab track system on discrete supports.

36、1:2010-08 3.1.8 structural track elements main structural components are the rails, resilient track elements, rail fastenings and rail bearing elements (sleepers, track panels), gauge tie bars, ballast and the ballast protection layers 3.1.9 resilient track elements components that, in addition to t
37、heir main functions of transmitting and distributing loads and of realising a desired level of stiffness (or compliance) under the rolling load, also serve to reduce vibration and structure-borne noise emissions EXAMPLES Ballast, elastic elements in rail fastening systems, discrete and continuous el
38、astic rail supports, elastic sleeper supports, under-ballast mats, discrete supports, strip mats and continuous mats for track base plates and track troughs. NOTE 1 The effectiveness of resilient elements in fulfilling this additional function is primarily determined by their elastic and damping pro
39、perties. Besides the elasticity of the track superstructure, the elasticity of the track substructure is frequently a major factor in determining the overall elasticity of a railway line. NOTE 2 The resilient track elements all serve to increase the elasticity of the track superstructure and thus to
40、 reduce the transmission of vibrations into the substructure. They also produce a uniform distribution of the wheel forces. This leads to a more stable track geometry and therefore to a reduction in the proportion of under-sleeper cavities and less vibrational excitation. NOTE 3 The resilient track
41、elements can be used in the same way on regular track, in switches, crossings and rail expansion joints, without this always being stated explicitly. 3.1.10 elastic rail pad Zw resilient track element located directly beneath the foot of the rail EXAMPLES See Figures A.6 and A.8. 3.1.11 elastic base
42、plate pad Zwp resilient layer located beneath a load-distributing plate and on top of the sleeper or bearing plate NOTE A ribbed baseplate is a load-distributing plate. EXAMPLES See Figures A.6 b) and A.7. 3.1.12 elastic rail support system ES type of track in which the rails are elastically mounted
43、 on discrete support points EXAMPLES See Figures A.7 and A.8. NOTE 1 In urban light rail systems, the rail deflection s at maximum wheel load caused by the elastic rail support system at maximum wheel load is approximately 1 mm to 2 mm, for highly elastic rail support systems the deflection of the r
44、ail is about 3 mm to 4 mm. NOTE 2 The elastic rail support system used under switches is known as an elastic switch support (EWL). 7 DIN 45673-1:2010-08 3.1.13 Continuous elastic rail support system 3.1.13.1 resilient grooved-rail support system ER elastic cladding around a grooved rail (covering th
45、e rail foot and web up to the rail head) EXAMPLE See Figure A.9. NOTE The elastic cladding can, for instance, be a prefabricated profile. Gauge tie bars, if present, are also clad or sheathed in an elastic material. In urban light rail systems, the rail deflection s at maximum wheel load caused by t
46、he resilient grooved-rail support system is approximately 1 mm to 2 mm. 3.1.13.2 continuous elastically embedded rail system continuous elastically supported track KES type of track in which the rails are supported not on discrete resilient supports, but on an elastic medium (grouting or an elastic
47、profile) that runs the entire length of the rails EXAMPLE See Figure A.10. NOTE Compared to a resilient grooved-rail support system, a continuous elastically supported track system enables a greater degree of rail deflection thereby achieving improved vibration isolation. 3.1.14 under-sleeper pad SB
48、 continuous resilient pad that is positioned underneath a sleeper and attached to the sleeper via a non-positive, force-closed joint (e.g. adhesive bonding) and that is preferentially used on ballasted track EXAMPLE See Figure A.1. NOTE An under-sleeper pad typically comprises an elastic layer and a bonding layer. 3.1.15 sleeper shoe sleeper boot SS (concrete) sleeper whose base, sides and end faces are covered with elastic cladding and that is preferentially used in a slab track system EXAMPLE See Figure A.2.
