GATE Civil Engineering (CE) 2027 Test: Points & Crossings Free Online Test

Match List-I and List-ll and select correct answer using codes given below the lists:
List-1
A. Distance between adjoining face of running rail and check rail
B. Distance through which the tongue rail moves laterally at the toe of switch for the movement of rails
C. Distance between the gauge faces of the stock rail and tongue rail at the heel
D. Angle between the gauge face of stock rail and tongue rail

List-II
1. Heel divergence
2. Flangeway clearance
3. Throw of switch
4. Switch angle

If α is the angle of crossing, then the number of crossing ‘N’ according to right angle method is given by

Lead of crossing is the distance from the

Number of switches provided on a Gauntletted track is

The correct relation between Curve Lead (CL), Switch Lead (SL) and Lead of crossing (L) is given by

In a scissors crossover, the crossing provided are
(i) 2 obtuse angle crossings
(ii) 4 obtuse angle crossings
(iii) 4 acute angle crossings
(iv) 6 acute angle crossings

The correct answer is

The distance through which the tongue rail moves laterally at the toe of the switch for movement of trains is called

Flangeway clearance is the distance

Heel divergence is

If 'A’ is the angle formed by two gauge faces, the crossing number will be
