RAIL - StarTrack ® - Rail Track Support Systems<br />

The StarTrack II modular precast-concrete platform grade-crossing system uses no ties and is set on a<br />

prepared sub-grade to form a self-supporting slab system free of vertical or lateral movement. Rail is<br />

seated on UHMW polyethylene strips, which cushion impact loadings and protect the underlying<br />

concrete surface from abrasion. <strong>Oldcastle</strong><br />

<strong>Precast</strong>® manufactures concrete grade<br />

crossings designed for ease and speed of<br />

installation, causing minimal impact on<br />

train operations and crossing traffic.<br />

StarTrack II HD is our answer to very heavy loading applications and high impact areas.<br />

The standard HD model is 11’-0” wide, 5’-0” TF in length and 1’-4” thick. The StarTrack II HD<br />

provides the solution to ultra high wheel loads and provides solid support for the dynamic<br />

movement from rail and rubber tire loading.<br />

RAIL - Railway Platforms<br />

Full-length high-level accessible precast rail platforms<br />

for extensions to existing platforms and new platform<br />

builds. The platforms are composed of steel reinforced<br />

precast concrete structural components. The fully flexible<br />

design can be modified to cater to a wide range of<br />

platform sizes, curves or foundation heights.<br />

RAIL - Plastibeton<br />

The Plastibeton Channel System is a trench system used to contain, protect and allow easy access to<br />

power, control, signal, communication, and fiber optic cables utilized by the railroad transit companies.<br />

Made of a unique, patented High Density Polymer Concrete, the trench system is designed and tested<br />

to support 40,000 lbs over a 10” x 10” square area and offers flexibility and strength, as well as<br />

exceptional resistance to freeze/thaw conditions. Railduct’s light weight, convenient length and ease of<br />

handling simplify installation.<br />

<strong>Precast</strong> concrete wall systems provide the highest<br />

noise transmission-loss value compared with other<br />

common sound wall materials (concrete’s greater mass<br />

reduces sound penetrating through a wall by more than<br />

80% compared with wood or steel frame construction<br />

(from NPCA). Transportation noise is one of the primary<br />

situations that <strong>Oldcastle</strong> <strong>Precast</strong> specializes in. We are<br />

up-to-date with the latest Federal Highway<br />

Administration standards and standards for all states.<br />

We are able to provide barriers that have a sound<br />

transmission characteristic of STC-42---STC-50 from 8’ high, all the way up through 22' tall. If<br />

necessary, we can also provide a barrier that has a noise reduction co-efficient of NRC-0.80.<br />

We have provided privacy<br />

walls for water treatment<br />

plants, airports, schools<br />

and government buildings. Our privacy walls provide an aesthetic<br />

solution to increasing the security of these facilities without<br />

compromising their functionality. In addition the barriers can<br />

withstand considerable impact.<br />
