Numerical analysis on static load capacity of prestressed concrete sleepers under hypothetical bearing pressure distribution
Prestressed concrete sleepers are currently designed based on permissible stresses concepts resulting from quasi-static wheel loads. It was designed to exceed the mean working load to avoid loss of bond in the prestressing due to cracking of the concrete sleepers. These loads allow for static respon...
