Railway Historyset up the initial needs
Historical construction materials
• Gauge 1.435 mm• load transmission 22,5 to.

Requirements for sleepers: • compressive strength• form stability• bending tensile strength
lateral loads resulting from sinusodial run
vertical loads resulting from train weight
wood: oksteel: okconcrete: ?

Concretehas the initial quality of compressive strength
to hinder product failure through poor tensile strength Joseph Monier invented armed concrete in 1867
span concrete, starting in the late 1920-ies, improved concrete as construction material for dynamic loads

EN 13.230 (1-5) for concrete sleeperswere established between 1995 and 2003
at this time all production systems have been already working according national norms
therefore it could be nothing else than the least common denominator
and it even delegates the most relevant definition of the nominal or testing loads to the buyer
EN 13.230 deals with other norms, dimensions, curing, impact coefficients and product testing, a part 6 dealing with construction principles may follow some day

What can help, finding a long lasting concrete sleeper for your railtrack?
• end anchors secure the initial prestressing force in the sleeper for a long product life
• supplier history is important – particularly if the buyer is caught in a short term warranty period
• seek after experience in technical or operational divisions of other countries with notable history
