Preface
Building materials have been built around the world for over 120 years. For most of this period, fatigue and breakage were unknown or ignored as limiting values, except in certain and “obvious” cases. However, it was unexpected at first, but the continuation of fatigue and fracture problems caused people to become aware of such a feeling. The appearance of the first ECCS recommendation on fatigue design in 1985 significantly changed the ethos of the. The text formed the basis of the fatigue sections in the first versions of Eurocode 3 and 4. The use of the latter and new research led to the development that led to the creation of precise dimensions that became, for the first time, the most accurate part of all European buildings.
Like other applications of technical knowledge, the fatigue provisions of Eurocode 3 and 4 took a long time to prepare and were based on information available at the time. In general, since the publication of the standard, not only the structural materials have changed, but also combined techniques, methods of structural analysis and precision methods, testing techniques, etc., each of which introduces new risk factors that can cause fatigue failure. has also changed. As a result, is a de facto standard that remains a bit vague in some areas (but not necessarily unsafe!) and includes others that are not good enough or not good at all. Similar considerations can be applied to the broken parts of Eurocode 3.
Taking all of the above into account, the preparation of this book was aimed at filling some of the gaps that appeared before, clarifying some articles and expanding or adding others. To accomplish this task, the guide draws on the authors’ and readers’ many years of experience in this field; It’s a comprehensive document with detailed information on how to deal with fatigue and fractures when using Eurocode… but they also offers much, much more. This is probably the most comprehensive failure guide to date for Eurocode 3 and 4, reviewed and approved by ECCS members TC6 “Fatigue and Fracture”. This text presents all the secrets of fatigue and fracture treatment in a clear, readable and comprehensive form (compared to standards), supported by three well-analysed examples. I’m sure a guide like this will not only help inexperienced users who need some explanation, but will also be appreciated by experienced experts who want more.
