Report overview
Railway sleepers are predominantly produced from wood or concrete. Wooden sleepers are usually produced from hardwood, although soft wood is also possible depending on the application. Before the appearance of Concrete Sleepers, steel sleepers were also commonly used in the construction of railway tracks. Concrete sleepers can be produced from both new and recycled concrete.
A railway sleeper is a rectangular support for the rails in railroad tracks. Generally laid perpendicular to the rails, ties transfer loads to the track ballast and subgrade, hold the rails upright and keep them spaced to the correct gauge. Railway sleepers are traditionally made of wood, but pre-stressed concrete is now also widely used, especially in Europe and Asia. Steel ties are common on secondary lines in the UK; plastic composite ties are also employed, although far less than wood or concrete.
