| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It is considered that one of the causes of damage to road bridge RC slabs is the effect of load vibrations due to fluctuating loads from heavy-duty vehicles generated near steps at expansion joints. As a result of load vibrations generated by heavy-duty vehicles due to expansion joints or evenness in the road surface, or the difference in levels, shock loading is applied that exceeds the design values.
In this report, fatigue tests under constant traveling loads and tests under fluctuating loads, namely vibrating loads with a sinusoidal wave form, were carried out. From these the fatigue resistance was evaluated relative to the number of load repetitions of an RC slab on which fatigue tests with constant traveling loads only were carried out. Also, consistency of the results with an S-N curve equation for predicting the life of an RC slab proposed by the authors was verified.
