Ehdotuksen tiedot

This document specifies the functional requirements for rail vehicle windscreens, including type testing, routine testing, and inspection methods for main line railway systems and urban guided transport. This document applies to windscreens made of laminated glass, which is the most commonly used material but also to other materials, subject to the performance requirements being satisfied. For on-track machines (OTMs) when in transport mode (self-propelled or hauled) the requirements of this standard are applicable. OTMs in working configuration are outside the scope of this document. Determination of the size, shape, orientation, and position of windscreens is outside the scope of this document. This document does not specify requirements for the interfaces between the windscreen and the vehicle. Accordingly this document does not address issues relating to installation, structural integrity, and crashworthiness.
