2. Principles of fatigue testing
2.1 Procedure for a steel structure
The ability of a structural detail to resist fatigue is characterized by its fatigue life. This is defined by the number of stress range cycles leading to failure.
The approach to fatigue testing of a steel structure, in accordance with NF EN 1993-1-9 and its National Annex NF EN 1993-1-9/NA, is as follows:
1 – Choose the appropriate consequence class (see § 2.2 );
2 –...
