Several research institutes including KISTEC and KRRI etc., recently, have studied maintenance activities and performance, in order to determine proper maintenance level and maintenance cost of rail tracks. But it may extremely difficult to make a decision in maintenance matters of concrete track and ballast containing other sub-components. For these reasons, this study investigate variables related to current maintenance, essential maintenance, and preventive maintenance. It is intended to suggest estimation method of proper maintenance cost maximizing rail track performance. It is stated that proposed approach may be very useful to make a decision of proper maintenance level. Typical section of rail track is applied for calculation of life cycle cost according to each maintenance strategy. A proper profile for maintenance is determined minimum life cycle

In general, it is known that the concrete ballast track is possible to reduce a cost of maintenance activities cause of maintenance free by restrictive maintenance in application of track ballast structures. However, if deteriorations and fracture mechanism of a material are considered, proper maintenance activities and repairing are continually required. For the problems, we evaluated an economical efficiency of the gravel ballast and the concrete ballast on a proper level of maintenance activities. As the method based on history path is difficult to obtain sufficient reliabilities cause of an absence of real data for maintenance activities, we chose the delphi survey method by professional group, and we obtained the appropriate index and profiles for maintenance activities. As a result, we founded that effects for cost reduction can be expected by preventive maintenance management, and we proposed economical restrictions and life cycle cost for track ballast structures in a life cycle.

The Ballast Track has been widely applied in traditionally due to low initial cost and abundant elastic property. But the disadvantages of Ballast track are; labor-intensive and costly maintenance, weak in high-speed and heavy axial load, in additionally need wide cross section of tunnel and massive substructure in viaduct. Therefore, recent applications tend to more and more towards slab track such as Gyeungbu high speed rail and existing line. The slab track increased the stability, resistance and durability of track, and save maintenance cost compare to the Ballast Track. But the slab track have weakness of track elongation by sub-ballast differential settlement and that threat safety of train operation. Therefor the slab track need to prevent cracks in concrete ballast for insure the durability of slab track. In this paper, review main items and its expected effects of the slab track maintenance standards that control sub-ballast settlement and concrete ballast cracks.

Currently the train operating environment to affect track irregularity is changed rapidly such as speed-up, linear improvement and rolling stack upgrade. The recent track maintenance criteria of track irregularity was quoted from past Japan's, and the needs of revision of criteria are increased because of the rapid change in train operating environment. In case of enhance the track irregularity criteria, it secure driving safety and riding comfort but maintenance cost are increase. And also decrease ballast durability by frequent corrective work. In case of mitigate the criteria, it decrease driving safety and riding comfort, but save the maintenance cost. The study for enacting rational criteria did not carry out so far. In this study, survey the domestic and international track irregularity and case study for track irregularity inspection results and maintenance history for guideline of enacting irregularity criteria study.

Present maintenance of a high speed railway is after the fack maintenance that executes a task when measured value goes over threshold value except some planned maintenance. It is difficult from efficient management of maintenance human resource and equipment commitment because it is difficult to predict quantity of maintenance targets. Corrective maintenance is pushed back on the repair priority of other target to need repair and it is exceeded repair cost potentially. For safety and dependable track management because track deterioration prediction is linked directly with track's life and safety of train service, it is very important that track management be based on preventive maintenance. In this study, we propose statistics model of track quality to use track inspection data and forecast model for track deterioration prediction.

B2S(Ballasted track To Slab track) that is track system has been first developed in 2004 with foundation of rich experience and know-how of subway track upkeep and mending of facilities in 36 years to improve an existence pebble track at a concrete track. 'B2S' is admitted technology through patent registration in the domestic and Europe and it's made by a factory and put together at field, so it's able to construct precisely and to reduce a construction period. In addition, safety, the ecological balance and durability are excellent, and walking, cleaning, etc. has the advantage of easy maintenance. 'B2S' is currently laying 27.7km at Seoulmetro as of end of 2010 standard, but it'll be expected to be applied to a domestic Metro more from now on. It is possible to classify the total cost resolution structure of B2S system by R&D cost, test production and experiment cost, the initial facility cost, maintenance cost, disposal cost. In this research, it seems useful for selection evaluation which considered the life cycle cost or economics of the concrete track structure by analyzing an initial cost of facilities.

구조 형식이나 공법의 선정, 유지보수 시기, 보수방법의 결정 등의 의사 결정에서 수명주기비용(life cycle cost, LCC)의 평가가 중요하다. 철도 궤도구조의 경우 초기시공비 뿐 아니라 유지보수비가 총 비용의 상당 부분을 차지하고, 특히 자갈궤도일수록 그 비율은 더욱 높으므로 수명주기비용 평가의 필요성이 더욱 높다. 이 연구에서는 궤도 구조 형식, 연간 통행량, 축중, 열차 속도, 곡선 비율, 구조물(교량, 터널) 비율 등 다양한 설계변수를 고려할 수 있는 LCC 산정 모델을 개발하고, 각 비용의 산정에 필요한 기초 자료를 제시하였으며 구축된 모델과 자료를 바탕으로 주요 설계변수에 따른 고속철도 자갈궤도와 콘크리트궤도 LCC의 변화 경향을 분석하고, 이로부터 궤도 LCC 분석에 있어서의 고려해야 할 주요 변수를 검토하였다. 검토 결과 자갈궤도는 교체 및 운영 비용의 비중이 콘크리트궤도에 비해 현저히 높았으며, 연간 통행량과 자갈 탬핑 주기가 자갈궤도의 LCC에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 반면 콘크리트궤도는 초기 시공비의 비중이 현저히 높았고, 연간 통행량이나 열차속도, 축중 등에 상대적으로 영향을 적게 받는 것으로 나타났다.

In this paper, the objective is an evaluation of economics using Life Cycle Cost(LCC) analysis for the ballasted track and the concrete track. However, since the absence of reliable data on maintenance activities, the degree of a reliability about the results of the LCC analysis is insufficient yet. In order to remedy the problems, we surveyed a professional research group for an approximate estimation which can be represented a degree of maintenance through a application of examples. Hereby we found that it is possible to expect the retrenchment of cost using preventive maintenance management. Moreover we proposed appropriate and economical restrictions between track structures.

이 연구에서는 철도 궤도의 수명주기비용(life cycle cost, LCC)를 보다 합리적으로 평가하기 위하여 실제 경부고속철도의 궤도 유지보수 데이터를 이용하여 열차 하중의 반복에 따른 레일의 피로 손상과 자갈 침하 진전을 고려한 궤도 보수량 추정 모델을 제시하여 기존 궤도 LCC 모델을 수정 보완하고 이 모델을 이용하여 궤도 품질수준에 따른 유지보수량과 수명주기비용을 분석하였다. 연구결과에 따르면 레일의 피로 손상 진전과 자갈 침하 진전을 고려한 궤도 보수량 추정모델을 적용한 결과 유지보수비를 실제 유지보수 비용에 가깝게 합리적으로 산정할 수 있음을 확인하였다. 궤도품질 영향계수는 레일 보수량 및 자갈다짐 보수량 그리고 결과적으로 유지보수비에도 상당한 영향을 미치고, 레일 보수량 보다 자갈다짐 보수량에 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 열차속도가 증가하면 레일 보수량과 자갈다짐 보수량이 증가하고, 궤도품질 영향계수가 클수록 열차속도에 따른 보수량의 증가율이 더 커지는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 따라 LCC 또한 궤도품질 영향계수가 클수록 열차속도가 커질수록 시간에 따른 증가속도가 빠르고, 유지보수비가 차지하는 비중이 증가하는 것으로 나타났다.

Generally, the analysis of railroad wear data is most effective method for the efficient railway maintenance. The wear of railway track affects loss of rough ride, noise or vibration of train and traveling safety. Moreover as the track is worn away, this promotes destruction of structural mechanism of rail track which can bring about increasing of rail track maintenance cost drastically. For this reason, it is very important and interested research subject to design railway track structure and to analyse train movement mechanism based on systematic analysis of the reasons causing rail wear possible in real field. In this research, for the efficient maintenance, Life Cycle Performance of rail track and maintenance characteristics are computed considering some track components such as track type, contracting type, sleeper type and roadbed type. Time - Wear probabilistic distribution relationship as well as multiple regression analysis based on time, curvature and wear data are computed to predict the service life remainder of railway track and to be adapted to safety assessment.
