Fatigue behavior evaluation of full-scale OSD-UHPC composite bridge deck system

To investigate the fatigue performance and fatigue damage process of the Orthotropic Steel Deck (OSD) - Ultra-High Performance Concrete (UHPC) composite bridge deck, a two-span continuous full-scale specimen was designed and tested under cyclic loading. Test results showed that the fatigue cracks firstly initiated near the lower part of the weld...
