Railways1415Asphalt in top formAsphalt track systems offer all the advantages of a ballastless system – they are fastand uncomplicated to install. A precondition, however, is highly developed asphalttechnology – and we are quite proud of our engineering expertise here.The fundamental characteristic of GETRAC® track systemsresults from asphalt supporting layers on which concretesleepers directly rest. GETRAC® sleepers are elastically connectedto the asphalt layer by special concrete anchor blocks.This technique assures effective fixing of the track panel inlongitudinal and lateral directions. This method of anchoringconcrete sleepers onto asphalt supporting layers achievesgreat system stability, even under heavy dynamic loading ofthe track. A major advantage of this product is its fast andsimple installation techniques with conventional track-layingtechnology, and with high daily track-laying output. In recentyears, the GETRAC® A1 system variation has become wellknown in our segment for its outstanding operational characteristics.The GETRAC® A3 ballastless track system is thenewest and highest-performance product in the GETRAC® line.The wide sleepers, an intrinsic part of this system, enable significantreduction in track structural height.In 2004, the German Federal Railway Authority (EBA) providedofficial approvals, without speed limitation, forvarious track innovations in the form of GETRAC® modelvariations. This approval accordingly signifies clearance ofGETRAC® for high-speed track applications as well.Greater convenience over the long run Ballastlesstrack systems require practically no maintenance. Once in place,they ensure system availability of virtually 100 %. When used assupporting layer, asphalt offers the unique advantage that geometrycan further improve with time.Optimal cost-benefit ratio In assessment of the servicelife of such track systems, it has become increasingly plain thatoverall system costs – i.e., life-cycle costs – have become a widelyaccepted and essential criterion. In addition to the long-term savingsthat they offer in maintenance costs, GETRAC® systems areespecially cost-friendly as a result of the high productivity they enablein track installation, and in the very short overall constructiontimes required for their emplacement.
