1-Tadbiromran Tran130395-RZM.Pdf TadbirOmranJam (TOJ) Co. Railway Superstructure and Track Laying Company Brief Introduction Introduction Through long term experience in the fields of intercity and urban railways’ track design and construction, we have virtually conquered all local track-related projects in Iran. From track laying in ballasted intercity railways in Iran (more than 2000 km.) we have extended our services in railway track engineering consulting and EPC projects. We have our footprints in Tehran, Mashhad and Isfahan Urban Railways. Our key personnel include best governmental supreme managers to well-educated professional private engineers whom all have devoted themselves to development and improvement of railway track engineering construction and engineering services. We follow the best procedures world-wide and are keen in newly developed technologies in railway track and signaling systems. Also due to very good binding with domestic track elements’ manufacturers our prices are very competitive. T.O.J. Co. Main fields of expertise Ballasted Track Slab Track Consulting Project services Management Construction and Supervision Track Services Communication Signaling Railways Heavy Haul (Intercity Urban Traffic Traffic Railway) Brief Description of capabilities and activities TadbirOmran Jam (TOJ) Co. 1- Main Expertise 2-2- Railways (Intercity Railway) The proper choice of a track system depends on many factors. Each project, after all, places different challenges. Which system is the best for a certain application? Is a ballasted or a non-ballasted solution advisable? Sometimes a simple solution will lead faster to your goal – and sometimes a sophisticated system is the better solution over the long run. In any case, T.O.J. Co. can offer the appropriate solution: We help you to find the right way. A track system by T.O.J. Co. is always a tailored solution, in which systems are adapted to special requirements. Curves, bridges, fill sections, tunnels, and turnouts place the strictest of requirements on the route. Foundation-soil characteristics have crucial consequences for planning. What physical forces and environmental influences can be expected? How will the soil react to operational loads over the long run? And: What logistics requirements must be considered during construction? After all: optimization of the process chain is our primary goal, and this includes construction-site access, transport paths, and material supply. 2-3- Urban Traffic Innovative concepts in urban traffic make our cities more worthwhile to live in. But nowadays, foresight is more important here than ever: the coexistence of people, means of transport, and other machines in crowded spaces demands intelligent and ecologically harmonious solutions – not only in planning and logistics, but likewise during construction phases and during transport operation. T.O.J. Co. offers innovative system solutions for all requirements of mass rapid transit. And since each track system should be optimized for its special area of application, T.O.J. Co. places special emphasis on close collaboration with our customers and business partners. Any public transport project in urban zones is just as individual as the city in which it is implemented. Continuously new requirements challenge engineers and planners: urban architecture, bridges, overpasses and tunnels, impressive squares, train stations, and malls and shopping centers exert critical influence on the selection of systems. How do structures near a rail line react over the long term to rail operating loads, and how should we protect them? In downtown and residential areas, the public increasingly voices greater expectations for aesthetic criteria. 2-4- Heavy-Haul Railways Due to heavy axle loads and special operating conditions these railways require special attention in track design. Although the applied track system in most of these railways is ballasted track but special attention should be given to track elements such as rail grade and dimension, sleeper type and spacing and high-duty fastening systems. T.O.J. Co. has long experience in freight and mixed railways lines across Iran and is willing to submit all valuable experience to its oversea client. Main track design criteria for us in this field are availability, punctuality and safety. Brief Description of capabilities and activities TadbirOmran Jam (TOJ) Co. 2-5- Track Engineering Services As an EPC contractor we have equipped ourselves with best track engineers and now we are engaged in all track related project in all phases including feasibility studies, preliminary design, basic design and detail design. Also our services are extended to track construction management and supervision. Our engineers have a long-term experience in Tehran, Mashhad, Shiraz, Isfahan and Ahvaz urban railways and currently are supervising the track construction in Shiraz and Isfahan.

  • Development of a New Method for Underground Structure Modeling and Design
    Building Tomorrow’s Society Bâtir la Société de Demain Fredericton, Canada June 13 – June 16, 2018/ Juin 13 – Juin 16, 2018 DEVELOPMENT OF A NEW METHOD FOR UNDERGROUND STRUCTURE MODELING AND DESIGN Shekarriz Ardalani, Shahram1,3, Yousefi Mojir, Payman2 1 RahSazTarh Consulting Engs, Iran 2 RahSazTarh Consulting Engs, Iran 4 [email protected] Abstract: Underground urban railway systems have a great influence on transportation industry because it reduces traffic by providing an individual route and increasing efficiency of the network as well as reduction of pollution. One of the biggest challenges in underground urban railway design is providing safe and economical design of stations at the same time due to the limited budget and high number of stations. Hence, accurate analysis and design is very important. This paper introduces a new modelling method by which has been examined Tehran Metro projects. On the other hand, based on model results and economical requirements an optimized structure analysis has been performed. For design optimization, two methods are described for underground railway station design. The first method considers risk assessment to select the best structural system and proper ways of soil stabilization through which reduces surface settlements up to allowable range. This procedure can be introduced as a modified NATM. By this method, a real design example including the comparison of the results with old construction method system (pile & rib) is compared. The second method presents a guideline to estimate the minimal rebar area required in sections which is crucial to maintain the serviceability of structures for 100 years and reduce the construction costs due to the scale and dimensions.

  • Tehran Metro
    © 2019 Dr. M. Montazeri. All Rights Reserved. TEHRAN METRO HISTORY Tehran, as the capital of Islamic Republic of Iran, is the first Iranian city in terms of economic, cultural and social as well as political centralization. This eight- million people city that its population with satellite towns reaches to twelve million inhabitants faces the traffic crisis and its consequences such as fuel consumption, noise pollution, wasting time and accidents. Undoubtedly, construction of an efficient and high-capacity transportation system will be the main solution to overcoming this crisis. Today, urban rail transportation has become increasingly apparent in its role as a massive, safe, fast, inexpensive and convenient public transport network to reduce vehicle congestion, environment pollution, fuel consumption and promoting the quality of social life. In the first comprehensive urban plan conducted in 1958, a railway transportation discussion was observed for the city of Tehran. In 1971, the study of urban transport situation was assigned to Sufreto French Company by the municipality of Tehran. This institute presented a comprehensive report titled “Tehran Transportation & Traffic Plan” based on information, collected statistics and related forecasts for the development and growth of Tehran in 1974. A "Metro-Street" system was proposed in this comprehensive plan, based on the construction of seven subway lines with the length of 147 km, completed by developing an above-ground network toward suburb, a full bus network as a complementary for metro, a number of Park&Ride facilities around the metro stations and finally a highway belt network. Due to this, a legal bill regarding the establishment of urban and suburban railway company was submitted to the parliament by the government in April 1975, which was approved by the National Assembly and the Senate, in which the municipality of Tehran was authorized to establish a company called Tehran Urban & Suburban Railway Co.

  • Reliability of FTA General Vibration Assessment Model in Prediction of T Subway Induced Ground Borne Vibrations ⁎ Javad Sadeghi , M
    Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering 117 (2019) 300–311 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Soil Dynamics and Earthquake Engineering journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/soildyn Reliability of FTA general vibration assessment model in prediction of T subway induced ground borne vibrations ⁎ Javad Sadeghi , M. Hassan Esmaeili, Masoud Akbari Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran, Iran ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Keywords: One of the main factors in the design of subways is the level of subway-induced vibrations. The ground borne Subway vibrations are usually estimated by prediction models among which the FTA (Federal Transportation Ground-borne vibration Association) general vibration assessment model is the most popular one. Although FTA approach/model is Slab track vastly used in the design and operation of underground railway systems, its reliability has not been sufficiently FTA evaluated in the available literatures. This is addressed in this research. For this purpose, a comprehensive General vibration assessment model experimental investigation (both in the time and frequency domains) was conducted in three newly constructed subway lines in the Iranian underground railway (subway) network. The track and soil characteristics as well as ground borne vibrations were measured. The reliability and accuracy of the FTA model was assessed through comparisons of the experimental results obtained here with the FTA predictions. Contrary to the current belief, considerable underestimations of subway ground borne vibrations in the FTA model predictions were shown in this research. The results obtained indicate up to 20 dB differences between the experimental results and those of FTA predictions. Based on the field measurements obtained here and the theoretical background, the FTAmodel was improved/optimized, leading to increase the reliability of FTA model predictions in subway systems.
