Project Information

Grant agreement ID: 7210-SA-115

Project closed

Start date 1 July 1990

End date 30 June 1993

Funded under

• Medium-term guidelines (ECSC) "technical steel research", 1986-1990

Total cost € 122 000,00

EU contribution € 73 200,00

Coordinated by

FRAUNHOFER-INSTITUT FÜR BETRIEBSFESTIGKEIT (LBF), E.V.

Objective

In this joint programme, laboratories of six EEC countries will study and optimize the weld, stud and bolt connections in various parts of steel bridges, in order to better accomodate fatigue. Computer calculations by finite elements and tests on welded, bolted, cracked and repaired components will result in design rules recommandations.
