Crane rails are an important element of the road.
Their condition depends on the required speeds and on the safety of the cranes.
An effective way to control the condition of the rails is non-destructive
control. Its application allows timely detection of inconveniences and defects
in the rails. The principle of action of the control means is based on the use
of magnetic and ultrasonic methods. The aim of the paper is to review the methods for
non-rational control of crane rails, to present the ways of their design and on
the basis of a real section to make experimental studies on the track when it
is used by a load crane.
