1. Major railway functions to be respected
1.1 Principle of a global approach
The industrial manufacturing process for a composite structure involves a number of stages which, while following a logical sequence, interact with each other from the outset of the project and may lead to a number of iterations:
drawing up functional specifications ;
design, dimensioning, calculations ;
inspection, testing, acceptance;
industrial analysis.
The rail structure designed in this way must, of course, be more efficient, but also more cost-effective. Economic constraints are taken into account from the outset of the project, and at every stage of the construction...
