The Laboratory Tests of the Embedded Block System with High Vertical Elasticity

The Laboratory Tests of the Embedded Block System with High Vertical Elasticity

ANTOLIK Łukasz and SIWIEC Jakub

Abstract. The resilient system that fastens rail to the ground is a very responsible element of the railroad track construction. This article discusses the function characteristics of an embedded block system (EBS) with high vertical flexibility, a range of the product application, methods of mechanical tests carried out in the laboratory and criteria of the tests result approval.
