The calculation of the shear area for F27 concrete sleeper cross sections (IM-TS-097)

Last updated on 05 July 2013 10:19

In 1978 a project was undertaken to investigate the dynamic behaviour of P27 concrete sleepers and particularly the presence or otherwise of tensile stresses in the top surface in the rail seal area. The work is reported in Ref. A finite element model of the F27 sleeper was constructed...
