ESTABILIZACION DEL LECHO DE BALASTO EN CAPAS DESPUES DE

CADA LEVANTE GARANTIZA UNA ELEVADA ESTABILIDAD Y VIDA UTIL

VENTAJAS DE LA ESTABILIZACION DINAMICA EN EL LECHO DE BALASTO

• Consolidacion homogenea espacial del lecho de balasto completo

• Incremento de la resistencia al desplazamiento lateral

• Manejo cuidadoso del balasto mediante un reubicacion dinamica de las piedras del balasto

• Peligor de pandeo de via se reduce notablemente

• Mantenimiento exacto de la geometria de via a traves de mayores periodos de tiempo elevando la reserva cualitativa de la via

• Los intervalos entre mantenimiento se extienden

• La estabilizacion dinamica eleva la seguridad y ayuda a bajar los costos

Test-Results

• Correlation between RLD measured by Dynamic Stabilizer during stabilisation and manual measurement

• Dynamic Stabilizer raises RLD by 30% to 60% • After tamping without Dynamic Stabilizer, the RLD

can be critical • Work speed of Dynamic Stabilizer has no influence • Work only with full vertical load • Results refer to track with concrete sleepers

AAR/TTC Tests – wood ties (1990 – Trevizo, [9]) • Tangent: 17% recovery after 0.1MGT; 32% after 1MGT • 5° Curve: 9% recovery after 0.1MGT; 21% after 1MGT

Volpe/FRA Tests at TTC - wood and concrete (1987-1990; Kish, et al, [10]) • Wood - tangent: 26% recovery after 0.1MGT • Concrete – 5° Curve: 52 % reduction due to tamping • Concrete – 5° Curve: 22% recovery after 0.1MGT

Volpe/Union Pacific Tests – concrete (2000-Sluz, [11]) • Concrete (new-scalloped) - 17% recovery after 0.35MGT • DTS increase: 33%

Volpe/Amtrak/FRA Tests – concrete (2001- Kish, et al, [12, 13]) • 43% reduction due to surfacing with ½ inch lift • DTS increase: 31%

UP/Foster-Miller Tests – wood/concrete/old/new (2001-Samavedam [14]) • 39-70% reduction due to tamping/surfacing • 0.1MGT had negligible influence on wood after tamping; 0.2MGT was 28% • Heavy rain/wet ballast: 20% decrease in lateral resistance on wood

UP/TTCI Tests – concrete/tangent/high tonnage (2010-Clark & Read @ IHHA 2011) • Over 70% reduction due to surfacing • 0.1MGT increase: 49% • DTS increase: 60% • Tonnage after DTS reduced TLR by 11%

US Data on Ballast Consolidation

DTS Increase: 31 – 60%

Conclusions

§ Ballast lateral resistance is an important parameter for track geometry retention and track stability management.

§ It is a complex parameter: non-linear, variable, difficult to measure, has both static and dynamic components where the tie/ballast friction coefficient plays a key role.

Ballast maintenance (surfacing, lifting, tamping) reduces lateral resistance by 40-60%. This requires quick and efficient restoration.

§ It is a key parameter for both track buckling and track shift evaluations, but each requires different components of the lateral resistance function.

US Data on Ballast Consolidation

§ Dynamic track stabilization (DTS) has proven to be a quick, efficient and effective means to restore lateral resistance requiring no speed restrictions. The 30-60% TLR restoration promotes:

Based on US data, traffic (tonnage) consolidation may require more than the currently accepted 0.1MGTs to achieve a minimum 30% DTS equivalent. (MORE R&D IS REQUIRED FOR EVALUATION!)

Ø providing lateral stability for track buckling safety for most conditions

Ø “smoothening” of neutral temperature along the rail

Ø improving hot weather speed restrictions

Ø improving ballast longitudinal resistance
