Track Modulus Assessment of Engineered Interspersed Concrete Sleepers in Ballasted Track

Track Modulus Assessment of Engineered Interspersed Concrete Sleepers in Ballasted Track

Ballasted railway track is typically constructed using sleepers that are manufactured from a common material type within a given length of track. Timber and concrete are the two most common sleeper materials used internationally. Evidence from historical installations of interspersed concrete sleepe...
