Project Details
Description
Based on fracture mechanics, the remaining fatigue life of historical riveted steel railway bridges is predictable, without the knowledge of the fatigue damage of the past. For a representative bridge structure a simulation of the train crossing was done and accurate time intervals for crack inspections were determined for all bridge members (main girder, girder of the carriage way).
