ASME RT-2-2021
Safety Standard for Structural Requirements for Heavy Rail Transit Vehicles
The objectives of the passive safety requirements described in this Standard are to reduce the risk to passenger injury and damage to equipment resulting from collision accidents by providing a means of protection when all possibilities of preventing an accident have failed. In the event of a collision, application of this Standard provides protection for the occupants of new designs of crashworthy vehicles through the preservation of structural integrity, reducing the risk of overriding and limiting decelerations.
