Abstract

Various kinds of rail vehicles are running on a railway track such as; passenger vehicles, freight vehicles, mainline locomotives, shunting engines. The algebraic sum of the vehicle loads cannot give an accurate picture of the running load, because it does not take into account the way in which the load is applied, the running speed, so on. Therefore, a complex parameter giving an accurate estimate of the passing traffic load is necessary. Union Internationale de Chemins de Fer, UIC, proposed a method to calculate the theoretical traffic load for this purpose. In this study, initially, the theoretical traffic loads for Turkish Railway Network are calculated with the help of train loads, speeds and tonnage for 2003. At the second stage, the classification of lines for the purpose of track maintenance is made by using these traffic loads.
