Abstract
Rail transport is an important part of the logistics chains in the world. To make rail transport competitive, we need more investment in infrastructure and more efficient and innovative technological solutions. From an environmental point of view, the efficiency of rail transport is highly related on the electrification of the rail network. One of the elements required for electrification is the support poles of the overhead contact lines, which are usually made of reinforced concrete, produced by centrifugation. In this paper presented experimental studies have been performed to investigate the long-term physical effects of salts and multicycle temperature gradient on centrifuged concrete with chemical admixture.
