Introduction This introduction provides an explanation of the concept and reasoning for preparing this standard. Its description ensures that, during any future revisions, restrictions will be removed if technical progress has been made or will be kept if this is not the case in order that safety is maintained if new manufacturers, products and technologies appear. The most commonly used delivery conditions in Europe for the supply of grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles have been reviewed during the preparation of this standard. Modern rail production technology and the requirements of commuter railways within the European Union have demanded that the technical requirements for the products specified in EN 14811 be reconsidered. Whenever possible, this EN 14811 is performance-based. It recognizes the European quality management standard EN ISO 9001 and requires manufacturers to offer the latest proven technology consistently to satisfy the demanding quality of the required product. The steels are classified according to hardness and not to tensile strength. The acceptance tests were developed in order to monitor the properties of the grooved rail steels and grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles that are of importance for the production of grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles and which comply with the demands of commuter railways. The steel grades covered by EN 14811 reflect trends in commuter railway usage and heat-treated rails as well as associated construction rail profiles. This standard contains profiles for grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles for grooved rail facilities having a linear mass of 42 kg/m and above. To ensure the supply of high quality rails, some restrictions on production processes have been imposed. This standard is applicable to all procurements covered by the European Procurement Directive (93/38/EEC of 14 June 1993). Additionally, CEN has requested a performance-based standard taking into account safety requirements and the application of the most recent technologies. With respect to the Directive, it is acknowledged that there are (and with respect to safety requirements also shall be) options to deviate from the standard upon agreement between purchaser and manufacturer.
This standard reflects the change in philosophy compared with the traditional content of delivery conditions for grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles. The most frequently used delivery conditions in Europe for the supply of grooved rails and construction rail profiles have been reviewed. All the aspects that are important for the purchasers and manufacturers have been analysed to ensure that the overall contents are particularly appropriate and relevant for the European Standard. For example, the classification of the steel grades of grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles and also other aspects of the European Standard has been based on hardness, not on tensile testing. Whilst the two are directly related, hardness testing is very quick and inexpensive to carry out and provides more relevant guidance to the user, particularly where properties vary in different parts of the profile. One new aspect of the European Standard is the integration of a clause on quality management and testing in order to assure the product integrity. In order to ensure that the quality management systems are consistent for all manufacturers and that all purchasers can be sure about the consistency of the product quality of these safety-related components, this standard recommends that the manufacturer operates a quality management system at least equivalent to the requirements of EN ISO 9001. This makes it possible to dispense with detailed requirements on tests and comprehensive testing. SIST EN 14811:2007+A1:2010

6 Dimensions, static properties, linear mass and tolerances The requirements for the profile drawings, their dimensions, static properties and linear mass are given in Annex A. The tolerances of certain dimensions shall be as given in Tables 5a and 5b. All other quantities are informative only. NOTE Linear masses have been calculated based on a density of steel of 7,85 kg/dm3. 7 Manufacture 7.1 Product integrity 7.1.1 Factory production control All grooved rails and associated construction rail profiles shall be produced under a comprehensive system of production control in order to ensure confidence in the conformity of the finished product. The system shall address this European Standard to ensure that the finished products consistently comply with requirements to achieve the product integrity necessary to provide assurance of product safety in track. The manufacturer shall demonstrate by documented evidence continuing compliance with the factory production control system required. Manufacturers having a factory production control system which complies with EN ISO 9001 shall be recognized as satisfying the minimum requirements specified by this clause. 7.1.2 Best practice manufacture The product shall be manufactured to the best practices as defined in 7.1.1. NOTE This is to ensure that the rail attributes, described in the introduction, which are not known in an exact manner or are not practically measurable, achieve the required high level of product integrity in track. SIST EN 14811:2007+A1:2010

continuously-cast bloom shall be at least 8 times greater than that of the rail profile to be rolled. An exception applies for the profile 105C1 where the original cross-section of the continuously-cast bloom shall be at least 7,5 times greater than that of the rail profile to be rolled. For heavier profiles (construction rails), the original cross-section shall be at least 2,5 times greater than that of the rail profile to be rolled. NOTE In this case, suitability for a heat treatment may be limited. 7.3.4 The straightening of the rails shall be done in a two-step roller-straightening process that straightens the rails about the axes x-x and y-y described in Annex A. Straightening presses may be used for end straightening or for correcting locally limited deviations from straightness. The rolled marking shall be protected from the effect of the straightening rolls. 7.3.5 Dividing into finished lengths shall be carried out by cold-sawing. Other cutting methods may be applied, provided that the microstructure remains unchanged. Any burr shall be removed without resulting in any noticeable bevelling of the profile. 7.3.6 Fishplate holes in the web of the rail shall be made round with smooth walls and be deburred. 7.3.7 Tie bar holes shall be round or oval. Round holes shall be stamped or drilled, oval holes stamped or milled. The edges of tie bar holes shall not have any dangerous burrs. 7.3.8 Fundamentally, no rolling beads shall be present at the rail head, grooved head or outer edges of the foot. Exceptions may be agreed between the purchaser and the manufacturer, but the inside edge of the grooved head shall not be sharp. 7.4 Marking 7.4.1 Rolling marks The following rolling marks shall be rolled on the outside of the web (running head side) in relief at least 0,8 mm high and in characters that are clearly legible of between 15 mm and 20 mm:  the identification of the mill;  the last two figures of the year of manufacture; SIST EN 14811:2007+A1:2010

7.4.2 Hot stamping Each rail shall be identified by a stamped mark consisting of a numerical and/or alphabetical code. The code shall allow the following information to be identified:  the number of the heat from which the rail has been rolled;  the number of the strand and the position of the bloom within this strand;  the position of the rail in the bloom (A, B…. Y). The identification mark of the rail shall be stamped at least once by the manufacturer on one of the two sides of the web of the hot-rolled rail. The figures and letters shall be clearly legible and 16 mm high. The stamped characters shall have a flat or radius (1 mm to 1,5 mm radius) face with bevels at the side. The marks shall be on a 10° angle from the vertical and shall have rounded corners. The stamping shall be not greater than 1,0 mm deep along the centre of the web. The design of the characters shall be as shown in Figure 2. If the rail does not have any stamped mark, it shall be identified by means of a code made by rotary burr. NOTE The following division of the rails can result in more than one rail having the same identity.
