Today, the industrial and scientific community is devoting increasing attention to the effect of hot dip galvanizing on the fatigue strength of structural steel details. In structures such as bridges, hot dip galvanized (HDG) steel is quite often used. Along their lifetime, such structures are repeatedly submitted to stresses of varying amplitudes, leading to fatigue usually being the design criterion. In Germany, recent experimental work on a range of HDG details was carried out, which led to the publication of a guideline recognized as relatively conservative towards HDG components in steel bridge constructions. While, also quite recently, in Norway, recent studies on the behaviour of bolted HDG joints submitted to fatigue concluded that quite similar behaviour compared to uncoated steel equivalents can be expected. The present paper re-investigates, in a uniform and transparent way, the available data for similar uncoated and HDG details. In total, the data for 8 details are presented and discussed. One tries to respond to the question if hot dip galvanizing has such a detrimental effect that, the rules of current version of EN 1993-1-9 should be amended. Finally, the authors give guidance on how the current design rules concerning HDG details should be amended. These guidelines take into account the most recent draft revision of EN 1993-1-9, under preparation by the CEN/TC 250/SC 3 technical group responsible by Eurocode 3.

The behaviour of galvanized lattice steel structures with joint slip is difficult to model accurately using either theoretical methods or numerical simulations. This paper proposes an accurate and efficient finite element (FE) model for the performance prediction of such structures including the effect of joint slip. In this study, an improved joint-slip model for bolted connections is developed on the basis of experimental results and Ungkurupanian's joint-slip model. Validation of the proposed model is performed utilizing results from full-scale structural testing. Compared with the conventional structural model and the structural model incorporating Ungkurupanian's joint-slip model, the proposed model has the highest accuracy in regard to predicted response. This newly developed model can be readily programmed into existing structural analysis and design software. The proposed model has the potential to improve reliability and safety of lattice structures in practical design.
