Abstract

Railway tank wagons are widely used for the transportation of liquid cargo as petroleum products, acids, alcohol etc. During the last years only tank wagons with bogies were manufactured (four axles wagons). The prototype of each wagon’s series is tested according with international standards in purpose to validate the design (the project). This paper present the static and dynamic test performed at the body of a four axles tank wagon.
