Fatigue design of metallic railway bridges in France at the end of the nineteenth century

Abstract: Among more than 25 000 bridges and viaducts in the French railway network, more than 2000 metallic bridges have been in service for over a century, and they need adapted measures for their maintenance. Due to the increase in rolling speed and axle load, the understanding of the behaviour of this type of connection becomes of utmost importance. In order to understand better how old bridges behave, a specific aggressiveness index has been defined, and it enables comparison of the effects of different rolling sto… Show more

“…For this study, as described in Sire and Ragueneau, 56,57 we consider the SIA norm with the linear model corresponding to the detail category Δ σ = 80 MPa and a slope m = 5 up to 1E7 cycles and a constant amplitude fatigue limit (CAFL) from 1E7 cycles. This choice of fatigue curve shows indeed a good agreement with the SNCF railway bridges historical inventory of repairs, for a set of 37 stringers.…”
