The invention relates to a method for maintaining total braking power of a rail vehicle while taking the available friction conditions into consideration. The method includes recognizing that at least one unit is wheel-slide controlled; retrieving the type of friction prevailing on the wheel-slide controlled units; determining the values μ0 and Kμ0 for each unit that is wheel-slide controlled; forming a function for the value μ0 and a function for the value Kμ0, in each case over the entire length of the units comparing the actual braking request in each of the units, to the function of the value Kμ0, and changing each braking request in each of the units, towards the respective value of the function of Kμ0.
