Natural longitudinal rail shape of in-situ C.W.R. - a faster measurement method (IM-TM-006)

An earlier report (1) described a technique to measure the natural longitudinal shape of the rail in in-situ C.W.R., in order to assess how defects in the rail shape can affect the subsequent rate of track deterioration. This technique involved unclipping the rail over 3 rail lengths, and jacking...
