Overview

Objectives:

The main objectives and innovations of the project are:
i) Development of an innovative system for trains weighting while allowing for the monitoring of traffic loads and track response.
ii) Design of high performance binders for the manufacturing of more durable and resistant materials to support future traffic conditions.
iii) Development of components from the high performance binders for their application in the structure of the track section.
iv) Design and tuning of new laboratory tests for the study of materials and section elements under real conditions expected in railway tracks.
