Abstract

Light Rail transportation (LRT) in Indonesia is built first time in 2016. Rail is one of the important components for track at LRT. One of joint of rail for LRT is uses flash butt welding joint. The requirement of flash butt welding joint is based on BS EN 14587-2:2009. Requirements include static and fatigue bending test of welding joint. In this paper present a strength analysis of flash butt welding joint by testing in laboratory. Static bending test done for 3 type of joint rail with 5 sample for each type, which are joint of rail type of R260 – R260, joint rail type R260 – R350HT and joint rail type of R350HT – R350HT. Fatigue bending test done for type of R260 – R260 for 3 samples. Results of static and fatigue bending test are the joint rail meet the requirement based on BS EN 14587-2:2009 and this joint can be used for LRT track structures
