This series of standards applies to welding of metallic materials in the manufacture and maintenance of
railway vehicles and their parts.
This part of the series specifies design and classification rules applicable to the manufacture and maintenance
of railway vehicles and their parts. Upon agreement with the customer, drawings issued prior to this European
Standard may be subject to the provisions of this European Standard.
This European Standard does not define parameters for the dimensioning (refer to other standards e.g. on
fatigue testing).
