Rubber-reinforced concrete decking, project A1.RB.000 (hereinafter referred to as “the decking”), is designed for installation at railway crossings in straight and curved sections of railway track to ensure safe, convenient and rapid crossing of railway tracks by vehicles at the same level as the top of the rail head.
The decking consists of rubber-reinforced concrete slabs and elastic rubber sealing profiles that provide rigidity to the overall structure:
-
internal seals secure the slabs between the rails within the track gauge;
-
external seals ensure tight adhesion of the outer slabs to the rails.
The decking is installed on railway tracks with R65 and R50 rails using the following rail fastenings:
-
KB-65 on type Sh-1 reinforced concrete sleepers;
-
ARS-4 on type Sh-ARS reinforced concrete sleepers;
-
ZhBR-65PShM, ZhBR-65P on type Sh3/Sh3-D reinforced concrete sleepers;
-
KD-65 (K4-65), DO-65, DO-50 on wooden sleepers.
The decking is used on public and non-public railway tracks, metro tracks and tram tracks for the passage of vehicles with an axle load of up to 13 t/axle.
The decking structure is modular and allows crossings of the required width to be covered (slab multiples of 1300 mm, 1605 mm, 1950 mm, 2140 mm, 2600 mm, 3020 mm and 3250 mm).
The modular structure provides the ability to:
-
cover a crossing of the required width;
-
install on straight or curved sections of track (slab width is selected taking into account the radius of the section and operating conditions);
-
perform rapid installation (dismantling) of the decking during repair works and technical maintenance of the railway track;
-
reuse the decking slabs multiple times, including for temporary road crossings over railway tracks during construction works;
-
extend the service life of the road surface at the junction with the decking.
Products manufactured by A.Miller JSC comply with the requirements stipulated by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 719 dated 17.07.2015 and are classified as Russian industrial products.
