Part 4 of the EN 13230 series of standards defines the specific requirements relating to prestressed bearers for switches and crossings. These are additional requirements to EN 13230-1 that are necessary to have a complete standard dealing with prestressed bearers for switches and crossings. The document specifies the test arrangements and test procedures to be used, as well as the associated acceptance criteria and design approval tests. This part contains the additional technical criteria and control procedures as well as specific tolerance limits related to manufacturing and testing prestressed bearers for switches and crossings with a maximum length of 8,5 m. Bearers longer than 8,5 m are designated as special elements and shall comply with EN 13230-5.
