This paper describes the use of Spectral Analysis of Surface Wave (SASW) for characterizing rail track ballast and foundation layers. Surface wave testing on a rail track is more complicated than on soil sites or pavements due to the presence of larg

Track support is necessary for reliable, resilient railroad track infrastructure. Ability to recover quickly from adversity is a hallmark of the railway industry, and ability to rapidly restore track to service is a main element contributing to resil

Rail seat deterioration (RSD) of concrete ties is manifested by the loss of concrete material in the rail seat area supporting the rail. This failure mode can lead to track that performs poorly and, in extreme cases, can result in the loss of rail cl

One of the more critical failure modes of concrete crossties in North America is the degradation of the concrete surface at the crosstie rail seat, also known as rail seat deterioration (RSD). Loss of material beneath the rail can lead to wide gage,

The support structure beneath railroad tracks may appear to be a simple layering of various materials, but rather, it is a complex system working together to distribute the load of passing trains. It is paramount that this structure maintain its desi
