A critical examination of the size effect correction for welded steel tubular joints

Alain Nussbaumer, Ann Schumacher, Luís Costa Borges

Welded circular hollow section (CHS) joints typical to bridge construction have been examined in an experimental, numerical, and analytical study with respect to their fatigue strength. Evidence from this study has indicated lower fatigue strength for join ...

Experimental study on the fatigue behaviour of welded tubular K-joints for bridges

Alain Nussbaumer, Ann Schumacher

Fatigue tests were carried out on welded circular hollow section K-joints typical to bridges. The tests specimens were large-scale (approximately 9 m long and 2 m high) trusses loaded in the plane of the truss. Measured member stresses showed that a signif ...

Fatigue of bridge joints using welded tubes or cast steel node solutions

Senta Haldimann, Alain Nussbaumer, Ann Schumacher

In the design of recently constructed steel-concrete composite bridges using hollow section trusses for the main load carrying structure, the fatigue verification of the tubular truss joints has been a main issue. Recent research on the fatigue behaviour o ...
