ballast grading and ballast life
Railway ballast performance: Recent advances in the …
This results in the production of additional fines, meaning the ballast life may be shortened. To better understand the above challenges, it is useful to make a distinction between ballast layer properties and ballast particle properties. ... Particle size distribution is also called grading, which describes the mass percentage of different ...

Assessment of drainage and filtration of sub-ballast course …
Ballast contamination due to intrusion of fine particles from subgrade is characterized as a conventional source of ballast fouling. To diminish this phenomenon, sub-ballast layer is incorporated between the subgrade soil and the ballast course of railway track structure. Present study investigates the influence of subgrade type, …

Reusing Life-Expired Railway Ballast: Laboratory Testing, …
Over its life cycle, ballast is subjected to loads from passing trains. Measured in cumulative tonnage, busy routes commonly can receive more than 15 million equivalent gross t/year (e.g., some sections of the United Kingdom's (UK's) east coast mainline achieve this) (Le Pen et al. 2018).Usage inevitably leads to track geometry …

Grading and frequency dependence of the resilient modulus of ballast
The stress–strain and degradation response of railway ballast to imparted train loading is often largely dominated by intrinsic properties, including particle size and particle-size distribution (PSD). To investigate these aspects, a series of large-scale triaxial cyclic tests were conducted on railway ballast. To investigate the influence of grading …
