Abstract

Designed for project managers in design offices, engineers in steel construction companies and construction survey engineers concerned with the manufacture of structures subjected to fatigue loads induced by frequently changing actions, traffic actions, wind induced oscillations or comparable actions. Contains a review of the current knowledge in fatigue design and the fabrication of fatigue resistant structures. Contains information about design that is in conformity with the currently available Eurocode 3, which deal with the design of steel structures. Furthermore, it contains information about fabrication aspects not covered in the Eurocodes, and should be viewed as a source of advice to be consulted before designing, fabricating, or repairing a structure subjected to fatigue.
