SUPERSTRUCTURE CONSTRUCTIONS

New product management and advanced product development initiatives

The superstructure in railway projects is responsible for absorbing vertical and horizontal pressures caused by the traffic load and transmitting them to the subsurface. The spread of forces across greater regions leads to a load distribution that minimizes overloading and overstressing of particular superstructure components while also ensuring that the surface pressure on the subgrade is as low and uniform as feasible.

The following are the most frequent elements found in a railway superstructure:

Rails or lanes:

Because they were initially formed of iron, they are responsible for giving this mode of transportation its name. Since its inception, many types of rails have been utilized to better its mission of directing the train's wheels. They are currently manufactured of steel.

Sleepers:

Transverse components that connect the rails while maintaining their width without distortion.

Ballast:

Is a layer of stones strewn over the road. Its function is to cushion the train's passage while also minimizing terrain deformations caused by weather.

Buffers:

Are mechanisms built at the end of the track to stop a train if it is unable to stop on its own due to a problem.

Turnouts:

Also known as needle changes, are devices that allow trains to change tracks by directing the flanges of their wheels.

Railway signaling:

Is a collection of equipment that communicates a succession of indicators, instructions, and commands from the track to train drivers. Signals that were abandoned.

Catenary:

Is a type of cable that is put on most railway lines to transport electrical energy via an aerial cable.
