This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatigue is a common failure mode of steel bridges induced by truck traffic. Despite the deterioration caused by environmental factors, the increasing truck traffic volume and weight pose a premier threat to steel highway bridges. Given the uncertainties of the complicated traffic loading and the complexity of the bridge structure, fatigue evaluation based on field measurements under actual traffic flow is recommended. As the quality and the quantity of the available long-term traffic monitoring data and information have been improved, methodologies have been developed to obtain more realistic vehicular live load traffic. A case study of a steel interstate highway bridge using microscopic traffic simulation is presented herein. The knowledge of actual traffic loading may reduce the uncertainty involved in the evaluation of the load-carrying capacity, estimation of the rate of deterioration, and prediction of remaining fatigue life. This chapter demonstrates a systematic approach using traffic simulation and bridge health monitoring-based fatigue assessment.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fatigue life assessment of steel highway bridges is crucial to maintain their safety. Researches are required to quantify uncertainties in loading, resistance, fatigue life prediction and improvement techniques. This study calibrates some fatigue code parameters and models fatigue loading probabilistically using truck data in Canada. Fatigue life improvement by weld toe grinding is assessed experimentally and numerically. Finally, the remaining fatigue life using reliability-based method for cruciform bridge welded detail is predicted. Truck data screening is vital to ensure its quality in calibration and load history prediction. Three different fatigue truck factors and equivalent number of cycles are proposed, using single and dual slope curves, for three bridge span ranges. Span length and fatigue category affected the calibration in short spans and dual slope curves. Using Ontario and Quebec data, probabilistic distributions for stress-range histograms for bridge spans and configurations are developed. Weld toe grinding improved the fatigue life by 60% for category E joint compared to the non-ground specimen. Still, weld imperfections might adverse grinding effect. In deterministic fatigue life prediction, energy-based approach is used for crack initiation, while linear elastic fracture mechanics is used for crack propagation. An initial spherical flaw size of 0.1 mm with no residual stresses leads to the most precise prediction of fatigue resistance for test specimens. For the probabilistic fatigue life prediction of cruciform detail of 6.4 mm fillet weld size, the fatigue life of the concave weld profiles are usually larger than the convex ones. The study developed a method to convert the probabilistic stress range into number of cycles for remaining fatigue life reliability of steel detail. The generated reliability illustrates the fatigue repair and inspection management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The expected life of a steel highway bridge subjected to random, variable-amplitude traffic cycles is highly dependent on damage accumulation caused by various fatigue mechanisms. This study addressed some of the issues associated with developing probabilistic reliability models for steel bridge structures under vehicular traffic loadings. Specifically, methods for incorporating inspection data (e.g., the presence and size of cracks) into classical and fracture mechanics-based fatigue models to predict fracture-critical element damage accumulation were analyzed. The block loading method introduced here assigns a damage state to the cracked detail after each vehicle passage. This method is limited to loading blocks where the plastic zone at the crack tip developed by the pseudo-static response of the bridge must be larger than the crack growth caused by the subsequent dynamic cycles for each vehicle passage. It must also be assumed that the crack length is fixed during a loading block. This method accounts for closure effects by predicting the occurrence of damage only when the crack is opened. When a bridge inspection reveals fatigue cracks, field data in the form of strain measurements can be collected in the vicinity of the fracture detail to identify the characteristic stress block and the fluctuations in the curve attributes attributable to randomness of the traffic loading. Then, the data can be analyzed to identify the statistical properties of the attribute parameters, which include the magnitude of the pseudo-static response, the number of dynamic cycles in each block, and the duration of the vehicle passage. With this information, the distribution of stress blocks can be estimated, and the block loading method can be employed to calculate the fatigue lifetime of each critical detail.
