INTRODUCTION TO RDSO

Railways were introduced in India in 1853 and as their development

progressed through the 20th century, several company management systems

grew up.

To enforce standardization and coordination amongst various railway

systems,the Indian Railway Conference Association (IRCA) was set up in

1903, followed by the Central Standards Office (CSO) in 1930, for

preparation of designs, standards and specifications. However, till

independence most of the designs and manufacture of railway equipments

was entrusted to foreign consultants.

With independence and the resultant phenomenal increase in country’s

industrial and economical activities which resulted in increase demand of

railway transportation-A new organization called Railways Testing and Reasearch Centre (RTRC) was setup in 1952 at Lucknow, for testing and

conducting applied research for development of railway rolling stock,

permanent way etc. Central Standards Office(CSO) and the Railway Testing

and Research Centre(RTRC) were integrated into a single unit named

Research Design and Standards Organization(RDSO) in 1957, under

Ministry of Railways at Lucknow.The status of RDSO has been changed

from an ‘Attached Office’ to ‘Zonal Railway’ since 01/01/2003.



INFRASTRUCTURE

RDSO has a number of laboratories which are well equipped with research

and testing facilities for development, testing and design, evaluation of

various railways related equipment and materials.

Some of these are:

Air Brake Laboratory

Brake Dynamometer Laboratory

B&S Laboratory

Fatigue Testing

Geo-Technical Engineering Laboratory

Metallurgical and Chemical Laboratory

Psycho-Technical Laboratory

Signal Testing Laboratory

Signaling Equipment Development Centre
