AND
H – BEAM SLEEPER
Introduction
Track structure on bridges are different from that on
embankment, such as :
Ballasted deck bridge – Rails, fittings and sleeper
are similar to the track structure on approach except
guard rails are provided to prevent over turning of
derailed rolling stock.
Length –
Length of steel channel sleeper depends on the type of
steel girder bridges and its span
Note:
The top flange plate of welded girder has different width at both
ends and at middle portion of girder. Therefore, Length of
sleepers on A and B location are different.
Bolt as per specification IS: 3757 – 1985 of Property class 8.8 &
length depending upon the thickness of filler plate component.
Silent feature
Design is suitable for axle load upto 32.5 t and curvature
upto 1°
This Drg. is suitable for welded plate girders / stringers
where there is no splice joints.
Arrangement shown in Drg. for fixing H-Beam is suitable
when there is no rivet on top flange of girder.
Length of sleeper varies for DFC, BG, 25 t loading as shown
in this Drg.
For rail seat assembly and position of holes refer separate
drawing to be issued by Track Directorate of RDSO.
Maxm spacing between sleepers shall be 650 mm centre to
centre.
Silent feature
At rail joints, clear spacing between two consecutive
sleepers shall not be more than 200 mm.
a) Stiffener plates –
These are welded on both sides with top flange of H-
Beam in full length and with web portion of the H-Beam
upto a depth of 168 mm.
d) Gangway Plate –
