Abstract:

This report outlines a measurement program to obtain data on the performance of standard tie designs and associated fastening systems under field service conditions. In addition, the program identifies limited data to be obtained from a wood tie track for comparison. Recommendations are presented for a measurement program for monitoring, over an extended duration, the performance of different cross tie track systems under typical transit conditions. The following topics are discussed herein: type of data to be collected; type of instrumentation to be installed; type of equipment required for data acquisition; test schedule; and criteria for evaluating test data. The recommendations presented in this report are applicable to wood and concrete cross-tie track systems.
