Hello nabil37300, you can find in AutoCAD files in the CAD/BIM Blocks library here in the site : RAILS_VIGNOLE.dwg for railroad tracks RAILS_BURBACH_DIN_536.dwg for crane rails As you declare to have AutoCAD2019 you will be able to transfer these files including all the rails profiles as blocks into files to be open on "covadis". The VIGNOLE rails were drawn from the PATRY catalog in a time were it included all the dimensions, not sure this is possible now.

 Eventually as it's for a school work you could re-draw the rail (s) although it's relatively complicated.
Here is an extract from the PATRY catalog year 1990. The rail here enclosed is the SNCF profile 60 kg/m. The distance between the rails is 4' 8.5" = 1435.1 mm INSIDE THE RAILS that's to say 1435.1 + 72 = 1507.1 mm between the centerlines.

It's OK nabil37300, did your school was sussessfull, did you use the AutoCAD files indicated or did you "redraw" the profile(s) ? Was AutoCAD OK with your .dty / covadis ?
Redraw the profiles from the old drawing is complicated because you have to deal with the dimensions AND little slopes indicated to modelize it. |
