The “total <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce in parts <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> payload” is calculated according to the following example:<br />

The maximum <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce that can be supported by the end <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> a 70-t<strong>on</strong>s Box car is shown below.<br />

Input data<br />

Payload (P):<br />

Maximum <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce per end (F):<br />

70 t<strong>on</strong><br />

100 t<strong>on</strong><br />

F 100<br />

The <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce expressed in parts <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the payload: = = 1. 4<br />

P 70<br />

The calculati<strong>on</strong> gives thus a maximum allowable <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce <strong>on</strong> the wag<strong>on</strong> end <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> 1.4 times the<br />

maximum payload <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the wag<strong>on</strong>. The <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce is distributed over the wag<strong>on</strong> end according to the<br />

table above.<br />

For wag<strong>on</strong>s equipped with special cushi<strong>on</strong>ing devices, the above l<strong>on</strong>gitudinal <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ces may be<br />

reduced.<br />

Flat wag<strong>on</strong>s<br />

The bulkheads <strong>on</strong> Flat wag<strong>on</strong>s shall be designed <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g> a <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce equal to the design coupler <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce<br />

multiplied by 75 percent <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the ratio <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> load limit to gross weight <strong>on</strong> rails. The <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce shall be<br />

c<strong>on</strong>sidered as a uni<str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>mly distributed load over the face <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the bulkhead with a resultant at<br />

mid height. (C II - 4.1.13)<br />

An approximated calculati<strong>on</strong> to give the maximum <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce that can be supported by the end <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> a<br />

70-t<strong>on</strong>s Flat car is shown below.<br />

Input data<br />

Payload (P):<br />

70 t<strong>on</strong><br />

Design coupler <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce (D): 5670 kN<br />

Load limit (L):<br />

74 t<strong>on</strong><br />

Gross weight <strong>on</strong> rails (G): 100 t<strong>on</strong><br />

g: 9.81 m/s 2<br />

L<br />

Force <strong>on</strong> bulkhead (F): F = D × 75 % × = 5670×<br />

0.75×<br />

= 3147 kN<br />

G<br />

100<br />

F 3147<br />

The <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce expressed in parts <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the payload: = = 4. 6<br />

g × P 9.81×<br />

70<br />

The calculati<strong>on</strong> gives thus a maximum allowable <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce <strong>on</strong> the wag<strong>on</strong> end <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> 4.6 times the<br />

maximum payload <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the wag<strong>on</strong>. The <str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>ce is uni<str<strong>on</strong>g>for</str<strong>on</strong>g>mly distributed over the face <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> the<br />

wag<strong>on</strong> end.<br />
