Content DescriptionFatigue is a mechanical degradation process caused by repeated loads, such as traffic loading or wind loads on a bridge, that results in irreversible damage in concrete structures. Many types of concrete elements are subjected to repeated loads, such as airport and roadway pavements, bridge girders, bridge decks, wind turbines, and prestressed concrete railroad ties. This document provides information that will benefit practicing engineers interested in the design or rehabilitation of concrete structures subjected to high-cycle fatigue—that is, stress cycles in which the material behavior remains within the elastic range. The effects of repeated loads on plain concrete, reinforcing materials, and reinforced concrete systems are discussed based on a summary of available literature. This report does not contain detailed design procedures but rather should be considered a general resource providing a comprehensive overview of fatigue issues in reinforced concrete structures. Keywords: design; fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix; fatigue; fiber-reinforced concrete; fiber-reinforced polymers; prestressed concrete; rehabilitation; reinforced concrete; reinforcing materials; service life.This book also exists in the following packages...About ACIFounded in 1904 and headquartered in Farmington Hills, Michigan, USA, the American Concrete Institute is a leading authority and resource worldwide for the development and distribution of consensus-based standards, technical resources, educational & training programs, certification programs, and proven expertise for individuals and organizations involved in concrete design, construction, and materials, who share a commitment to pursuing the best use of concrete. ACI has over 95 chapters, 110 student chapters, and nearly 20,000 members spanning over 120 countries. |
