This document describes the basic terms and definitions as well as general procedures for strength assessment of rail vehicle structures that are manufactured, operated and maintained according to standards valid for rail system applications. The assessment procedure is restricted to ferrous materials and aluminium. This document does not define design load cases. This document is not applicable for corrosive conditions or elevated temperature operation in the creep range. This document is applicable to all kinds of rail vehicles.
