Railway applications. Interior glazing for rail vehicles. | Status: Current

1 Scope This document specifies the functional, performance, and quality requirements for the interior glazing of rail vehicles including type testing, routine testing, and inspection methods for high speed rail, heavy rail, urban rail vehicles including metro and tram applications. This document is also applicable for tram vehicles. Determination of the size, shape, orientation and position of interior glazing is outside the scope of this document. This document does not specify requirements for the interfaces between the interior glazing and the vehicle. Accordingly, this document does not address issues relating to installation and structural integrity. This document does not apply to interior glazing with a surface less than 0,02 m2 and also emergency device casings (e.g. cover sheets for emergency hammers, passenger alarm systems, etc). This document does not apply to materials other than glazing materials. For safety reasons, where the use of a specific type of glazing is specified that is not covered by this document (e.g. bullet proof glazing, fire proof glazing, etc.), this document does not apply.
