Fatigue Behavior of Full-Scale Welded Bridge Attachments

J. W. Fisher / B. M. Barthelemy / D. R. Mertz / J. A. Edinger

This report contains the findings of an extensive laboratory evaluation of the fatigue behavior of welded steel bridge members. The objective of this study was to examine the fatigue strength of beams with web and flange lateral attachment plates. In addition to providing a more comprehensive data base for this type of detail, the program was intended to examine the influence of lateral bracing members on the out-of-plane distortion of the lateral plates. Further work also was undertaken during the experimental studies on the effectiveness of peening and gas tungsten arc remelting the fatigue-damaged connections and on the ability of drilled holes to arrest crack growth.
