In Australia, Clause 7.20.8 of AS 1418.1-2002 limits gaps to 3 mm. When installing rails, the ambient temperature needs to be considered. For a temperature range of 5 to 40 degrees C, install with joints closed at 40 C and with 3 mm gaps at 5 C.
For heavy duty runway systems, rails should be welded, but this requires careful attention to detail. In some cases, bevelled joints are used instead.
Excessive gaps can have significant effects on the fatigue life of heavy duty runways. However, they can also have significant effects on accelerating the utilisation of DWP (Design Working Period) for all cranes.

a sphingtor says what? Centrioles move material around. Sort of like a moving truck.
Without enzymes, DNA replication would not occur. DNA Polymerases are responsible for catalysing the bonding of nucleotides, and for replacing primers. These functions are essential for DNA replication.
Similar to a standard ladder but wider and incorporating a center rail to allow for two-way simultaneous traffid. (OSHA rule: Always use double-cleated ladders when ladders are the only way to enter and exit a working area with 25 or more employee and when ladders are used for two-way simultaneous traffic.) But try to find one with web search and you are in for a hard time.
"Third leg" is a slang term that refers to an erection, especially one that is particularly prominent or noticeable. It is often used humorously or in a cheeky manner to describe a male's genitals when aroused.
A Hogged Rail is the surface defect of the rail in which the rail ends are bent downword at the joints.
Zoology or mechanical engineering? A Crane and a Rail are two different birds. A Crane Rail in the mechanical sense is a track-like structure specifically for a crane. in some cases Crane Rails ( never Crane Tracks) are imbedded in concrete for heavy container-crane loads. often the structure uses special types of rail set in the pavement as described above. Rail heads are different also from the RR type. Glad you asked that Duplex Track is often used for heavy crane loads- and the flanges are different than for conventional ralroad tracks. also- some gantry cranes derived their power from a third-rail 660VDC structure as were all the Erie-Lackawanna Gantry Cranes, now sadly extinct.
Interlocking joints between railroad tracks are called compromise bars. They are a set of rail joint bars that connect rails of two different sizes.
Use a pulley (crane) .
gantry cranes are types of crane which lift objects by a hoist which is fitted in a trolley and can move horizontally on a rail or pair of rails fitted under a beam. A mobile crane is any mobile crane, i.e. one that is easily moved from one location to another, sometimes while carrying a load. Generally these cranes are fitted in trucks.
Rail joints are staggered so that in the unlikely event of a joint failure it would not put undue stress on a joint on the other rail which might cause it to fail as well.

The main differences between Suburban Rail and Rapid Transit Rail Networks is the services that they provide.
tube is underground but rail is on the ground :)
Light rail is for street cars and trolleys. Rapid rail is for high speed trains and subways.
Railroad tracks can bend when they get hot. Train tracks have a small gap where one rail meets the next rail. These are called expansion joints. When it is hot the rails expand making the gap smaller, and when it is cold the rails contract making the joints wider. If the expansion joints are not wide enough and the rail gets hot enough it will expand more than the expansion joint can handle and the rails can buckle. In other situations the rails can get what are called sun kinks and the rails actually bend out of alignment.
