3 INTRODUCTION Modes of Failure of Steel Structures Yielding or excessive plastic deformation. Elastic or inelastic buckling or instability. Fatigue fracture due to repeated cyclic loading. Brittle fracture.

4 Definition of Fatigue Fracture Process of progressive localised permanent structural change occurring in a material subjected to conditions, which produce fluctuating stresses and strains at some point or points and which may culminate in cracks or complete fracture after a sufficient number of fluctuations - ASTM E206-62T INTRODUCTION

21 Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue Avoid details that produce severe stress concentrations or poor stress distribution. Provide gradual transitions in sections and avoid reentrant notch like corners. Avoid abrupt changes of section or stiffness of members or components. Align points so as to eliminate eccentricities or reduce them to a minimum.

22 Avoid making attachments on parts subjected to severe fatigue loadings. If attachments in such locations are unavoidable, the weld profile should merge smoothly into the parent metal. Use continuous rather than intermittent welds. Avoid details that introduce localized constraint. Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue

23 During fabrication provide suitable inspection to guarantee proper riveting, adequate clamping of high-strength bolts, and proper deposition of welds. Provide for suitable inspection during the fabrication and erection of structures. Intersection of welds should be avoided. Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue

24 Edge preparation for butt-welding should be designed with a view of using minimum weld metal so as to minimize warping and residual stress build up. Ask for pre and post heating, if necessary to relieve the build-up of residual stresses. Fillet welds carrying longitudinal shear should not be larger in size than necessary from design considerations. Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue

25 Deep penetration fillet welds should be used in preference to normal fillet welds. Structures subjected to fatigue loading, especially critical locations in such structures, should be regularly inspected for the presence of fatigue cracks and when such cracks are discovered, immediate steps to prevent them further propagation into the structure should be taken. Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue

26 Any repair measures taken should be designed to avoid introduction of more severe fatigue condition. Provide multiple load path and/or structural redundancy in the structure to avoid overall collapse of the structure due to failure of one element in the structure in fatigue. Provide crack arresting features in the design at critical locations to avoid propagation of cracks into the entire member. Prudent Design Practices in Fatigue

27 FITNESS FOR SERVICE Weld Defect Acceptance Criteria Effect of defect on stress concentration FEA of weld defects & Fracture Tests Critical Defects Under cut, centre line notch, overlap, convexity, concavity Lack of weld penetration
