Abstract:The Oregon Department of Transportation is responsible for many steel deck truss bridges containing connection details that are fatigue prone. A typical bridge, the Winchester Bridge in Roseburg, Oregon, was analyzed to assess the loading conditions, stress levels, and fatigue life of the connection details. The analysis included linear-elastic beam analysis, 2D and 3D finite element modeling, and fatigue modeling. A field identification methodology was developed to expand the analysis to other steel deck truss bridges. Five retrofit strategies were investigated to determine their effectiveness in reducing the stress ranges developed in the connection details.
