ISO 12856-1:2014
Plastics — Plastic railway sleepers for railway applications (railroad ties) — Part 1: Material characteristics
ISO 12856-1:2014 specifies the characteristics of plastic and reinforced plastic materials to be used in the manufacturing of railway sleepers. It is applicable to the sleepers and parts of sleepers to be installed in tracks with or without ballast. Examples of different types of plastic and reinforced sleepers are given in an annex.
