At the same time, the crossing area is subject to loads and movements that are not typically encountered on conventional road surfaces.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Different material interfaces, dynamic movements of the track superstructure and the flange groove place additional demands on the design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Typical surface requirements include:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Safe vehicle passage in wet conditions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reliable slip resistance for pedestrians<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Safe and predictable passage for cyclists<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consistently stable performance despite wear and tear<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Consistent slip resistance over the service life<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading toc-item has-large-font-size\">How Slip Resistance <mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);color:#E84E0E\" class=\"has-inline-color\">Is Achieved at Level Crossings<\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Slip resistance is not determined by a single material, but by the interaction of several factors.<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the material itself, surface geometry, drainage and the type of loading also influence the resulting slip resistance.

Modern level crossing systems are therefore not developed based on material selection alone, but as integrated system solutions.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This makes the surface structure particularly important.

STRAIL systems feature a pyramid surface structure with corundum embedded in the rubber. Corundum is one of the hardest naturally occurring minerals and is incorporated into the rubber during vulcanisation.

One key parameter is the SRT value. It is determined using the pendulum test: a pendulum device fitted with a standardised rubber slider (Slider 57) swings across the wetted surface, and the resulting loss of energy is expressed as a numerical value. The higher the value, the greater the measured slip resistance under wet conditions. This is particularly relevant for level crossings, where wet surface conditions are a key consideration.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The test method is specified in DIN EN 13036-4, the relevant European reference standard. In Germany, the method is applied in accordance with TP Griff-StB (SRT), the Technical Test Regulations for Measuring Surface Grip on Roads.  <strong>The SRT values of STRAIL systems are regularly verified by independent testing in accordance with DIN EN 13036-4.<\/strong> It is important to note that an SRT value describes slip resistance under defined test conditions. The minimum value required in each specific case depends on the area of application and the applicable specifications. Therefore, the regulations applicable to the specific project are always the determining factor, rather than a universally applicable target value.  <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-b91ec625 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"border-top-left-radius:10px;border-top-right-radius:10px;border-bottom-left-radius:10px;border-bottom-right-radius:10px;border-left-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent-1);border-left-width:15px;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--50);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--60);box-shadow:var(--wp--preset--shadow--natural)\">\n<p>When several factors influence slip resistance, the role of the surface structure and corundum becomes particularly important. However, objective comparisons of surfaces require reliable and reproducible test methods. This is why the SRT value, TP Griff and DIN EN 13036-4 are important reference points for assessing surface properties.<br\/>Measurement results describe the condition of a surface at a given point in time.
