This European Standard specifies a laboratory test procedure to determine:
- the maximum longitudinal force that can be applied to a rail, secured to a sleeper, bearer or element of slab track by a rail fastening assembly, without non-elastic displacement of the rail occurring,
or
- the longitudinal stiffness at a specified longitudinal displacement of a specimen of embedded rail with an adhesive fastening system,
and, (for any type of fastening system)
- to determine values of shear displacement and slip data for track-bridge interaction calculations.
