A module (100) for a system for the laying of underground and railroad and tram lines both in tunnel and on the surface, in particular railroad and tram lines, comprising a supporting slab (101) for the tracks (6), with substantially parallelepiped shape, the slab having at least four peripheral housings (1), passing from the extrados to the intrados and suitable to house respective adjustable levelling devices (120).

A precast concrete hollow sleeper for use in railway tracks has a body with at least one upper bearing surface for rails and one cavity extending over the entire length of the hollow sleeper and surrounded by the body on at least three sides for accommodating and possibly removing cable crossings and/or switch drive mechanisms and/or equipment for track or train control and/or measuring devices and/or supply lines. The body is made of concrete, preferably concrete with additional reinforcement.

By supporting a space generated by a settlement of the track bed gravel or asphalt roadbed underneath a concrete rail tie with cylindrical rods, and installing the present invention, one each separately, on the left and right sides of the concrete rail tie, recovery from settlements is automatic, and the response to differential settlements of the left and right rails of the track due to the train load can be easily facilitated, and by installing pressure reducing valves on the upper part of the concrete rail ties, pressure can be reduced while maintaining the track system as is without having to dismantle the concrete rail ties, and accordingly the usability of the concrete rail ties can be improved.

A new type of railway sleeper is composed of fiber-stabilized stoneware. By using a plurality of fiber-layered stone plates bonded to one another in such a way that prestress is generated in the stoneware, a permanently high-performance-capable sleeper is obtained, which is made of natural materials such as granite or basalt which occur almost everywhere on the earth in unlimited quantities and have a substantially longer service life and are substantially more resistant to influences of the weather and the environment than previous solutions. In addition, the sleeper or the intermediate spaces thereof are equipped with photovoltaic modules which together form a power unit when they are coupled together and connected electrically to the rails. Such sleepers can also be partially hollow as a light weight design variant. Lightweight variants with a hollow profile can be filled entirely or partially with track ballast from the side during the laying process.
