ČSN EN 13232-2

This document: - establishes the design process for switches and crossings (S&C), and the use of the other parts of this standard; - specifies the geometric design principles for wheel guidance; - establishes the basic limits of supply; - establishes the applied forces and their adequate support; - specifies tolerance levels. These are illustrated herein by application to a turnout. The main switch and crossing components are represented in turnouts and the principles used in turnouts apply equally to more complex layouts.
