Author: C W Brown | Size: 0.8 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: SCI | Year: 1997 | pages: 19 | ISBN: 1859420427
This publication describes studiesc arried out by The Steel Construction Institute to determine whether there is justification for the view expressed by some engineers that steel railway bridges are noisier than concrete. It essentially comprises desk studies and includes sau m m a r y of earlier work which was directed towards light rail systems in urban areas, together with an extension to cover the applications to railways for high speed trains. It concludes that modern well designed, detailed and maintained steel railway bridges are no noisier than concrete, and gives some general recommendations to be followed to ensure that this is attained.
