Increasing the significance of railway transportation and developing economic and competitive services is one of the key priorities of the European Union’s transport policy. The demand to increase transport safety while minimising energy consumption and pollutant emission requires the design and deployment of innovative railway vehicles and rolling stock. The requirements for vehicle structures call for the design of structures that are adequate in terms of strength and fatigue, with the lowest possible weight, can be manufactured economically and are easy and cheap to maintain. In the manufacture of railway vehicle structures, the use of welding has great significance. The quality of welded joints significantly affects the reliability and safety of welded vehicle components; thus, learning and applying best industrial practices is essential. In our presentation, we would like to present the application of the requirements for the design, manufacture and conformity assessment of railway vehicle structures through the example of MÁV-START IC + type high-speed passenger coach family.
