English term or phrase: rail seat
Hello!

The term appears in the maintenance description for slab tracks, the text specifically talks about possible failures in the track system. Does anyone know how to translate it?

Context:

Spalling and Fractures in the Area of the Rail Seat
By mechanical damaging the spalling and fractures of the shoulders in the area of the rail seat can occur.
This can affect the function regarding the transmission of lateral forces and the keeping of the track gauge.
This kind of failure has to be remedied by a quick maintenance action to hinder any risk for the operation of the railway line.
Fractures of the sleeper concrete shoulders are mainly known as a potential consequence of derailment incidents, which results in comprehensive remedial works with operation restrictions anyway.


Thank you very much in advance!
