Abstract:

Distortion-induced fatigue is a serious problem across the national bridge inventory, ; affecting many steel bridges designed before the mid-1980s. Because distortion-induced ; fatigue tends to develop in bridge connection details, near transverse elements such ; as cross-frames and diaphragms, repairing distortion-induced fatigue damage can be ; a difficult task, especially when the affected detail is near the intersection of the top ; flange, connection plate, and web.
