Staking/Checking the Track

The Stake/Check Panel
It is possible to stakeout points using a rail job with and without a stored rail
design.
When the position of the rails is not stored in the rail job, it is possible to stake
out:
The horizontal and vertical alignment of the track centreline
•
• Points with a known horizontal and vertical offset from the horizontal and
vertical alignment of track centreline
• The rails of the track by entering the track superelevation, superelevation
base and nominal gauge
Points with known horizontal and vertical offsets from the manually
•
defined rails.
When the position of the rails is stored in the rail job, it is possible to stake
out:
• The horizontal and vertical alignment of track centreline
Points with a known horizontal and vertical offset from the horizontal and
•
vertical alignment of track centreline
The rails of the track
•
Points with known horizontal and vertical offsets from the defined rails.
•
Besides checking points, it is also possible to work with cants (superelevation):
The cant value can be entered manually. The value is measured using a
•
device to measure the cant with an inclination sensor (camber measure-
ment instrument).
The difference of the manually entered cant value and the current design
•
cant can be displayed on
The cant value can be measured by using the option Second point of
•
super-elevation of the toolbox. A second point on the track is measured
to calculate the cant using the measured height difference and the config-
ured superelevation base.
