Kubber pads shall be thoroughly cleaned and, while the r a i l is being l a i d , they shall be accurately positioned. Pads that show signs of d i s t o r t i o n . e i t h e r during or a i t e r platelaying, shall be removed and r e f i t t e d correctly. Concrete sleepers that are damaged because the f i t t i n g s were incorrectly assembled or were not kept clean, shall be removed from the track and from the S i t e of the Works. Straightening and Bending of Rails Before placing r a i l s on sleepers and before bending them Tor use in a curve, the Contractor shall remove a l l kinks in the r a i l s .

R a i l bending shall be carried out only when the r a i l temperature is greater than 5 OC. A rail of length 18 m or less that is bent for use in a curve shall be curved over the f u l l length. A rail of length greater than 18 m shall be curved over 6 ni at both ends for a curve of radius greater than 500 m, and throughout its length for a curve of radius 500 m and less. Subject to the provisions of 5.2.5.2, curved track r a i l s s h a l l be uniformlv bent in accordance with the standard o f f s e t f o r the length of rail used and the radius of the curve.
