ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]In this thesis the reliability analysis of reinforced concrete bridge decks subjected to high cycle fatigue was undertaken. A simply supported (single span) reinforced concrete bridge deck was specifically used for the investigation. The statistical models of capacity loss were derived. The uncertainties in structural resistance and the applied loadings were fully accommodated using probabilistic method. The limit state function(Failure Modes) for the flexural capacity of the deck slab, shear capacity of the deck beam and flexural capacity of the deck beam girder was developed and evaluated us

CHAPTER ONE - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]CHAPTER ONEINTRODUCTION1.1 PreambleResearches on fatigue behaviour of concrete materials started at the end of the 19th century, due to failure in many concrete structures caused by fatigue rupture of the concrete (Rteil et.al, 2011). Results of experimental and theoretical studies of the fatigue properties of plain concrete, reinforcing bars, prestressing tendons, and also of structural concrete members, have been accumulating steadily over the past thirty years.The assessment of existing structures will become a more frequent task for engineers in the near future due to the i ...
