ABSTRACT AND REMARKS

The text of the European Standard ENV 1999 (version as of April 1997) should be available,
as the calculation example is based on these rules. Explanations to the rules, accompanying
the actual fatigue check procedure, have been integrated into the overall format, but are
written in italics. This is a fully documented calculation example with direct reference to the
actual code provisions. Its purpose is to present an outline of necessary steps but also of
possible considerations for other cases or possibilities of enhancement of fatigue behaviour in
service.

We draw attention to the fact that since a National Application Document proposal has been
produced for the ENV 1999-2 which may be adopted on a national level and possibly at later
date introduced into the actual standard, when this is converted from an ENV to an EN, the
information given in the Supplement to the TAS / TALAT Chapter 2400 Update should be
taken into consideration. Changes in the adopted S-N design lines and consideration of the
new document EN 30042 on the quality and detail classification criteria are the main issues
here. Regarding the first point numerical changes in the design example calculations will
emerge, but the overall concept and the procedure of the design life check is not affected.
Regarding the detail classification a simpler procedure is presented by EN 30042 than the
current provisions in the ENV 1999-2. But it should also be noted that in practice we still lack
the necessary information for a reliable and quantifiable correlation between the structural
detail classification schemes and fatigue service behavior of these details. This is also
reflected in the lack of harmonization between various national or international structural
detail classifications, especially harmonization in the respective critical imperfection values
used for characterization of the different classes. In this context see: Kosteas, D., Bompard,
S., Mugnier, P., „Correlating Design and Quality Requirements of Welded Aluminium
Structural Details in Fatigue“, IIW Doc. No. XIII-1589-95.

1 Introductory Remarks
1.1.1(1)
                      Eurocode 9, Part 2 gives the basis for the design of aluminium alloy
                      structures with respect to the limit state of fatigue induced fracture.
                      Other limits states to be checked as well, as covered in Part 1.
1.1.1(2)
2.1.6                 For the structural case given below the safe life design method shall be
1.1.1(3)              applied, i.e. the fatigue check will be performed on the basis of an
                      appropriate S-N design line. Quality requirements have to be met too,
                      to ensure that the design assumptions are met in practice.

1.1.3(3)
1.1.4, 1.1.5, Table   The structural part under consideration is an extruded square, hollow
1.1.1                 tube with 160/160 mm side size and a wall thickness of 8 mm in alloy
1.1.6, 1.2            EN AW-6082. It has an attachment of 8 mm thickness welded to one
1.1.7                 edge over a length of 300 mm. There is an additional opening in the
1.4                   vicinity of the attachment. The tube forms the chord of a latticed
                      structure, Fig. 1, and is under axial variable loading, exposed to normal
                      atmospheric conditions. Quality of workmanship is assumed as defined
                      in the code (more below under 1.12).

2.1                   The code gives valuable information on design objectives, influence of
                      fatigue to design, potential sites and mechanisms of failure, and fatigue
                      susceptibility which form a background for sound workmanship.

3 The Design Procedure

                         Certain prerequisites have to be met:
2.2.1                    − service history (loading sequence and frequency), stress response
        (1)                history at potential failure sites to be checked, shall be available,
                         − fatigue strength characteristics of the potential sites shall be
                           available in terms of respective fatigue design curves,
        (2)              − quality standards in the manufacture of the component containing
                           potential failure sites shall be defined.
        (3)
                         4 Loading and Stress Spectrum

                         Obtain an upper bound estimate of the service loading sequence for the
2.2.2 (2) a)
                         structure’s design life. All sources of fluctuating stress are observed,
3.1 (1)
                         the loading being given by the relevant loading standard (often ENV
    (2)
                         1991 Eurocode 1) and loading or stress expressed in terms of the
3.2 (1)
                         design load spectrum. In the case under consideration continuous strain
                         gage measurements over a suitable sampling period - chosen as one
3.2(3)
                         month - were conducted. These one-month measurements were
                         repeated for a number of times. The results are given in Table 1,
Annex C.1
                         second column. The estimated intensity of the design load spectrum -
                         Table 1, fourth column - is based on the mean measured value plus
                         kF=2 standard deviations.

                         The number of cycles given here as the result of the one-month
                         measurement corresponds actually to the mean observed number of
                         cycles plus kN=2 standard deviations. Under these conditions the
                         partial safety factor for loading γFf is assumed equal to 1 and provides
                         an acceptable level of safety. The assumed service life is equal to TL =


TALAT 2712                                      5
3.4(1)            60 years = 720 months, the respective cycle numbers are given in the
Table 3.4.1       fourth column of Table 1.

                  The resulting stress at the potential crack initiation site, the beginning
2.2.2 (2) b)      or end of the attachment weldment, has been derived, as mentioned
                  above, by strain gage measurements in direction of the chord axis. The
                  latter were used in this case for the purpose of continuous
4.2.1, 4.3.1      representative recording of the stress sequence. So they had to be
4.3.4             placed in sufficient distance from the actual beginning or end of the
4.4.1 (1) and     weldment, in order to record nominal stresses. Care should be given to
 (2) !            this fact, i.e. not to record hot spot stresses, which are then compared
                  to the inappropriate design curve of the code. Since the stresses were
4.2.2             derived from measurements in the vicinity of the potential crack site,
2.2.2 (2) c)      there is no need to apply any further stress concentration factor
                  because of the opening on the side of the tube. Had the nominal
                  stresses been derived on the other hand by static analysis of the
                  structural member only, an appropriate stress enhancement should
                  have to be considered. The stress concentration factor would have
Annex A, A.4      been in this case between 1,00 and 2,55 - but the exact value may have
Fig. A.2.1        to be calculated by finite element analysis for instance.

                  The originally recorded stress sequence and history have been reduced
2.2.2 (2) d)      to an equivalent number ni of cycles of different stress ranges ∆σi
                  (usually using a cycle counting method - appropriately the reservoir
                  method as in the existing case of rather simple loading events).Since
4.5.1(1) + (2)    only a limited number (11) of different stress range values have been
                  recorded, there is no need of further groupings of the initial bands of
                  the spectrum. But, of course, in a certain sense this grouping has taken
4.5.2             place when we extrapolated from the cycle numbers of the one-month
                  measurement to the total assumed service life of TL = 720 months. The
2.2.2 (2) e)      spectrum is set up in descending order of stress range values, Table 1.

                  5 Structural Detail Classification and S-N Curve
                      Parameters
2.2.2 (2) f)
5.1.1             The next step is the categorisation of the potential crack initiation
                  detail, i.e. the welded longitudinal attachment. Taking into account all
5.1.2             factors affecting the fatigue strength of the structural detail we proceed
                  to the appropriate detail category table. Although the attachment is a
                  longitudinal one in the direction of the applied stress, the potential
                  crack initiation detail is the weld toe, this being transverse to the
                  applied stresses.

Table 5.1.2 (a)   So we have to consult Table 5.1.2 (a)„Members with Welded
                  Attachments - Transverse Weld Toe“. The initiation site under
                  consideration is found (caution !) not under reference no. 3 in the table
                  but under reference no. 2, which describes the „transverse weld toe on
                  stressed member at corner“. We check the further assumptions:
                  − stress orientation is normal to transverse weld toe,

TALAT 2712                                6
− the alloy type is irrelevant with weldments,
             − the attachment is on the member surface,
             − the weld is, practically, round the corner (assumption on the safe
                side),
             − the length of the weldment/attachment is 300 mm (>200 mm),
             − after fabrication the undercut should be ground smooth,
             − inspection, testing and quality standards have to be observed as
                Annex D,
Annex D      − the stress parameter is the nominal stress at initiation site (see
Table           above),
D1 and D2    − the weld profile permitted is given in Annex D,
             − the stiffening effect of the attachment is already accounted for.
             Thus we arrive to the detail type number 2.9 from Table 5.1.2 (a) and
             for the thickness of T=8 mm (4<T<10 mm) we get the characteristic
             parameters of the appropriate S-N design line:
             ∆σc = 20 N/mm² (from 22 N/mm² according to type no. 2.8 but
                                 reduced by one detail category for 2.9 to account
                                 for the fact that the weld toe is round the corner
                                 of the member)
             m1 = 3,2             for the slope
             The respective design line can thus be constructed, Fig. 2.

                     The fatigue check on the basis of total damage DL is performed by
                     means of Miner’s summation (linear damage accumulation)
2.2.2 (2) g)                                  DL = ∑ (ni / Ni) = 0,659
                     following the algorithm as shown in Table 2. This already indicates
                     that there is a „safety margin“ against failure DL = 1,0. Of course,
                     only as far as the assumption of linear damage accumulation holds and
                     no significant stress sequence effects (crack rate acceleration) prevail.

                     Finally the code defines also „safe life“ TS, which may be calculated as
                                      TS = TL / DL = 60 / 0,695 = 86,3 years.
                     Had the damage summation been DL > 1,0 or the „safe life“ TS shorter
2.2.2 (2) h)         than the assumed or projected service life TL, then
                     − either the structure or the member will have to be redesigned (or
                        protected in case of exposure to severe environment) to reduce
2.2.2 (2) i)            stresses, or
                     − a detail of higher category will be manufactured, if possible, or
                     − a damage tolerant approach may be used, where appropriate.

7 Fatigue Check of „Damage Equivalent Stress“
                         (alternatively)

                     Somewhat larger number of calculations is required, but nowadays
                     using computational methods for the algorithm this is not at all a
                     matter of concern. Such a calculation has the advantage of comparing
                     stress instead of life values, with the other limit states as well. The
                     procedure is as follows:
                     the „damage equivalent stress“ Dse is calculated for the stress
                     spectrum at a total spectrum life of 675360+1040400 = 1715760
                     cycles (corresponding to the „active“ stress amplitudes above the cut-
                     off limit, but it would have been the same if the equivalent stress had
                     been calculated at any other life value), where with the values as in
                     Table 3 we get

             Since Dse < DsR there exists a margin of safety in stress of
             approximately 1,12.

             By the way, as a verification of the correctness of our calculations or
             the fact that the two fatigue check methods are identical, consider that
             according to the definition of the design line N = C ⋅ ∆σ − m it must be

             In other words the margin of safety in stress of 1,12 corresponds to a
             margin of safety in life of 1,44.

8 Conditions for Damage Tolerant Design Calculations
2.3.1          Conditions under which damage tolerable design procedures may be
               used
               − DL > 1,0
               − crack propagation observable during service (crack near or at
                  surface) or crack arrest,
               − inspection frequency feasible before critical crack size,
               − practical crack inspection methods available and applicable before
                  critical crack size is reached,
               − maintenance manual to be kept.
2.3.2          First inspection has to take place
               − before safe life TS has elapsed,
               − at regular inspection intervals Ti ≤ 0,5Tf , where Tf is the calculated
                  time for a crack to grow (at the site being assessed) from the
                  detectable crack size ld to critical crack size lf.
Table 2.3.1    Minimum safe values of detectable surface crack length are given by
               the Code. Tf shall be estimated by means of calculation (based on
               fracture mechanics principles and an upper bound crack propagation /
Annex B        stress intensity relationship) and/or by test. Specific information is
Table C.1      provided in this latter case, too.


               9 Comments for the Mean Stress Effect

               During the fatigue check we have assumed conditions of high tensile
               mean stresses at the potential crack initiation site of the weld toe. This
               is generally true. Conditions of mean stress ≥ +0,5 are taken into
               account (as worst case, on the safe side) with the design S-N lines.
5.3, Annex G   Should other conditions pertain fatigue life may be enhanced -
               accounted for by a „bonus“ factor f( R ).

               10 Comments on Environmental Effects

               The fatigue check performed above showed a sufficient margin of
               safety under the assumed conditions of loading and environmental
               conditions (see under 1.1) for detail category used. Under another,
               more severe environment, for instance immersion or constant contact
5.4            with sea water with the alloy EN AW-6082 (AlMgSi), a reduction of
Table 5.4.1    two detail categories should have been undertaken. This would result
               to a design line with DsC = 16 N/mm² and slope m1 = 3,2. The constant
               amplitude fatigue limit (at 5x106 cycles) would now be DsD = 12
               N/mm², the cut-off limit (at 108 cycles) DsL = 6,8 N/mm². These
               changes would alter the damage accumulation calculation, more stress
               levels would have to be considered at more severe damage. The
               structural detail category would not be sufficient any more under these
               conditions.


TALAT 2712                             11
11 Enhancement of Fatigue Strength

              The practical remedy would be to improve the structural detail, either
              locally at the potential crack initiation site (this can be a costly
5.5           procedure, its applicability will depend on the overall frequency of
              occurrence of the detail in the structure and the economics of the
              improvement technique applied) or choose a detail of higher strength
Table         in the first place. The obvious solution in this case would have been an
5.1.2 (a)     attachment with a sufficiently high radius R ≥ 20 mm and the weld toe
              fully ground out. This would push the detail category up to type no.
              2.12 with DsC = 28 N/mm². Now even after reducing by two categories
              due to the severe environmental conditions there would be a category
              with DsC = 22 N/mm², sufficient to provide sound design.

              12 Quality Requirements for the Structural Detail Used

              Reference has already been made above (under 1.1) to the fact that the
              detail categories used represent the maximum fatigue strength
Annex D       permitted by this code for the detail in question when manufactured to
Annex C       the quality requirements specified in the Code, and shall not be
              exceeded without further substantiation by test. See below under 1.14
              for details concerning inspection and workmanship acceptance levels.
              Higher class details often require additional inspection and demand
              higher workmanship standards which can have an adverse effect on the
              economy of manufacture.

              13 The Fitness-for-Purpose Concept

              It is important to realize that Eurocode 9 introduces a new concept:
6.1 (1)-(2)   inspection and workmanship standards shall be determined by the
              quality level appropriate to the particular fatigue performance
              requirements and not by the maximum potential fatigue resistance. The
6.1 (3)       required quality level at a detail shall be obtained by determining the
Table 6.1.1   lowest fatigue strength curve for which Miner’s summation DL does
              not exceed unity. Caution: where stress fluctuations occur in more than
              one direction at a detail different class requirements may be found for
              each direction.

              In the above initially calculated case the detail category 2.9 with DsC
Table 6.1.1   = 20 N/mm² would correspond itself already to a „Normal“ required
              quality level. Of course this would be true for any lower category for
              which DL would still be ≥ 1,0. Should we have used though a detail
              with rounded attachment edges (and under normal environmental
              conditions) of say type 2.12 or even 2.13, then a detail category of DsC
              = 31 N/mm² would have resulted. Following the argumentation just
              mentioned and from the point of view of the „required quality level“
              this high level would not be required, a „Normal“ level would have
              been sufficient. In case that this detail with the higher potential fatigue
              resistance would have been chosen it means that quality requirements

TALAT 2712                            12
resistance would have been chosen it means that quality requirements
                 on manufacture of this detail could be relaxed (or in other words
6.2.1 (b)        larger imperfections may be tolerated). In case that the required
                 quality level exceeds „Normal“, i.e. it is higher than Category 20, the
                 required quality level has to be indicated on the drawings together
                 with
                 the direction of stress fluctuation.

                 14 Inspection and Workmanship Acceptance Levels

                 Coming back to the inspection and workmanship acceptance levels, for
                 instance for our initial detail type no. 2.9 from Table 5.1.2 (a), the
                 transverse weld toe at corner, we may observe the following. The Code
Annex D          gives rather detailed instructions for the control of welding quality and
D.1.2, D.1.3     methods and extent of inspection.
                 The methods and extent of inspection for production welds are as
Table D.1        follows:
                 − Stage 1 - immediately prior to welding / visual and dimensional
                    inspection (all weld or joint types, for all orientations) in 100% of
                    joints of surface condition, preparation and fit-up dimensions,
                    jigging and tacking requirements,
                 − Stage 2 - after completion of welding / visual and dimensional
                    inspection 100% as above,
                 − Stage 3 - after visual inspection / non-destructive testing for a)
                    surface discontinuities and b) sub-surface discontinuities and for a
                    butt or fillet transverse, in „Normal“ required quality level, a
                    penetrant dye test for 100% of joints within 20 mm of a stop or start
                    is prescribed,
                 − it is obvious that for „Normal“ required quality level no additional
                    destructive tests are prescribed.
                 The required quality levels for final acceptance of production welds
Table D.2        and any corrective actions are also indicated. These recommendations
                 help avoid unnecessary repair. Again for our case of detail type no. 2.9
                 from Table 5.1.2 (a), the transverse weld toe at corner, we observe the
                 following acceptance criteria in the case of „Normal“ required quality
                 level:

                 whereby D: dimension specified on drawing/ E: corrective action-refer to designer
                         NP: not permitted (for NDT detectable discontinuities)
                         NL: no limit
                         NA: not normally applicable

TALAT Lecture 2712: Design Example in Fatigue

  • 1. TALAT Lectures 2712 Design Example in Fatigue Based on European Standard ENV 1999-2 (Eurocode 9) 14 pages, 3 figures Advanced Level Prepared by Dimitris Kosteas, Technische Universität München, Germany Update from the TAS Project : TAS Leonardo da Vinci program Training in Aluminium Alloy Structural Design Date of Issue: 1999  EAA - European Aluminium Association
  • 2. ABSTRACT AND REMARKS The text of the European Standard ENV 1999 (version as of April 1997) should be available, as the calculation example is based on these rules. Explanations to the rules, accompanying the actual fatigue check procedure, have been integrated into the overall format, but are written in italics. This is a fully documented calculation example with direct reference to the actual code provisions. Its purpose is to present an outline of necessary steps but also of possible considerations for other cases or possibilities of enhancement of fatigue behaviour in service. We draw attention to the fact that since a National Application Document proposal has been produced for the ENV 1999-2 which may be adopted on a national level and possibly at later date introduced into the actual standard, when this is converted from an ENV to an EN, the information given in the Supplement to the TAS / TALAT Chapter 2400 Update should be taken into consideration. Changes in the adopted S-N design lines and consideration of the new document EN 30042 on the quality and detail classification criteria are the main issues here. Regarding the first point numerical changes in the design example calculations will emerge, but the overall concept and the procedure of the design life check is not affected. Regarding the detail classification a simpler procedure is presented by EN 30042 than the current provisions in the ENV 1999-2. But it should also be noted that in practice we still lack the necessary information for a reliable and quantifiable correlation between the structural detail classification schemes and fatigue service behavior of these details. This is also reflected in the lack of harmonization between various national or international structural detail classifications, especially harmonization in the respective critical imperfection values used for characterization of the different classes. In this context see: Kosteas, D., Bompard, S., Mugnier, P., „Correlating Design and Quality Requirements of Welded Aluminium Structural Details in Fatigue“, IIW Doc. No. XIII-1589-95. TALAT 2712 2

  • 4. 1 Introductory Remarks 1.1.1(1) Eurocode 9, Part 2 gives the basis for the design of aluminium alloy structures with respect to the limit state of fatigue induced fracture. Other limits states to be checked as well, as covered in Part 1. 1.1.1(2) 2.1.6 For the structural case given below the safe life design method shall be 1.1.1(3) applied, i.e. the fatigue check will be performed on the basis of an appropriate S-N design line. Quality requirements have to be met too, to ensure that the design assumptions are met in practice. 2 Description of Structural Detail and Service Conditions 1.1.3(3) 1.1.4, 1.1.5, Table The structural part under consideration is an extruded square, hollow 1.1.1 tube with 160/160 mm side size and a wall thickness of 8 mm in alloy 1.1.6, 1.2 EN AW-6082. It has an attachment of 8 mm thickness welded to one 1.1.7 edge over a length of 300 mm. There is an additional opening in the 1.4 vicinity of the attachment. The tube forms the chord of a latticed structure, Fig. 1, and is under axial variable loading, exposed to normal atmospheric conditions. Quality of workmanship is assumed as defined in the code (more below under 1.12). chord - extruded square tube 160/160/8 mm EN AW-6082 (AlMgSi1) 50 r = 10 300 potential crack site transverse weld toe at corner Ds i strain gage Figure 1: Structural Component 2.1 The code gives valuable information on design objectives, influence of fatigue to design, potential sites and mechanisms of failure, and fatigue susceptibility which form a background for sound workmanship. TALAT 2712 4
  • 5. 3 The Design Procedure Certain prerequisites have to be met: 2.2.1 − service history (loading sequence and frequency), stress response (1) history at potential failure sites to be checked, shall be available, − fatigue strength characteristics of the potential sites shall be available in terms of respective fatigue design curves, (2) − quality standards in the manufacture of the component containing potential failure sites shall be defined. (3) 4 Loading and Stress Spectrum Obtain an upper bound estimate of the service loading sequence for the 2.2.2 (2) a) structure’s design life. All sources of fluctuating stress are observed, 3.1 (1) the loading being given by the relevant loading standard (often ENV (2) 1991 Eurocode 1) and loading or stress expressed in terms of the 3.2 (1) design load spectrum. In the case under consideration continuous strain gage measurements over a suitable sampling period - chosen as one 3.2(3) month - were conducted. These one-month measurements were repeated for a number of times. The results are given in Table 1, Annex C.1 second column. The estimated intensity of the design load spectrum - Table 1, fourth column - is based on the mean measured value plus kF=2 standard deviations. 3.2 (5) Table 1: Stress Spectrum measurement service life stress cycles ∑ni cycles ni ∑ni stress range level ni or nj or nj Dsi in N/mm² i= 1 7 7 5040 5040 60 2 25 32 18000 23040 40 3 31 63 22320 45360 36 4 53 116 38160 83520 32 5 72 188 51840 135360 28 6 111 299 79920 215280 24 7 194 493 139680 354960 20 8 445 938 320400 675360 16 „knee point“ of design line at ND = 5000000 with constant amplitude fatigue limit DsD = 15 N/mm² j= 9 1445 2383 1040400 1715760 12 10 (2056) (4439) (1480320) (3196080) (8) 11 (3556) (7995) (2560320) (5756400) (4) The number of cycles given here as the result of the one-month measurement corresponds actually to the mean observed number of cycles plus kN=2 standard deviations. Under these conditions the partial safety factor for loading γFf is assumed equal to 1 and provides an acceptable level of safety. The assumed service life is equal to TL = TALAT 2712 5
  • 6. 3.4(1) 60 years = 720 months, the respective cycle numbers are given in the Table 3.4.1 fourth column of Table 1. The resulting stress at the potential crack initiation site, the beginning 2.2.2 (2) b) or end of the attachment weldment, has been derived, as mentioned above, by strain gage measurements in direction of the chord axis. The latter were used in this case for the purpose of continuous 4.2.1, 4.3.1 representative recording of the stress sequence. So they had to be 4.3.4 placed in sufficient distance from the actual beginning or end of the 4.4.1 (1) and weldment, in order to record nominal stresses. Care should be given to (2) ! this fact, i.e. not to record hot spot stresses, which are then compared to the inappropriate design curve of the code. Since the stresses were 4.2.2 derived from measurements in the vicinity of the potential crack site, 2.2.2 (2) c) there is no need to apply any further stress concentration factor because of the opening on the side of the tube. Had the nominal stresses been derived on the other hand by static analysis of the structural member only, an appropriate stress enhancement should have to be considered. The stress concentration factor would have Annex A, A.4 been in this case between 1,00 and 2,55 - but the exact value may have Fig. A.2.1 to be calculated by finite element analysis for instance. The originally recorded stress sequence and history have been reduced 2.2.2 (2) d) to an equivalent number ni of cycles of different stress ranges ∆σi (usually using a cycle counting method - appropriately the reservoir method as in the existing case of rather simple loading events).Since 4.5.1(1) + (2) only a limited number (11) of different stress range values have been recorded, there is no need of further groupings of the initial bands of the spectrum. But, of course, in a certain sense this grouping has taken 4.5.2 place when we extrapolated from the cycle numbers of the one-month measurement to the total assumed service life of TL = 720 months. The 2.2.2 (2) e) spectrum is set up in descending order of stress range values, Table 1. 5 Structural Detail Classification and S-N Curve Parameters 2.2.2 (2) f) 5.1.1 The next step is the categorisation of the potential crack initiation detail, i.e. the welded longitudinal attachment. Taking into account all 5.1.2 factors affecting the fatigue strength of the structural detail we proceed to the appropriate detail category table. Although the attachment is a longitudinal one in the direction of the applied stress, the potential crack initiation detail is the weld toe, this being transverse to the applied stresses. Table 5.1.2 (a) So we have to consult Table 5.1.2 (a)„Members with Welded Attachments - Transverse Weld Toe“. The initiation site under consideration is found (caution !) not under reference no. 3 in the table but under reference no. 2, which describes the „transverse weld toe on stressed member at corner“. We check the further assumptions: − stress orientation is normal to transverse weld toe, TALAT 2712 6
  • 7. − the alloy type is irrelevant with weldments, − the attachment is on the member surface, − the weld is, practically, round the corner (assumption on the safe side), − the length of the weldment/attachment is 300 mm (>200 mm), − after fabrication the undercut should be ground smooth, − inspection, testing and quality standards have to be observed as Annex D, Annex D − the stress parameter is the nominal stress at initiation site (see Table above), D1 and D2 − the weld profile permitted is given in Annex D, − the stiffening effect of the attachment is already accounted for. Thus we arrive to the detail type number 2.9 from Table 5.1.2 (a) and for the thickness of T=8 mm (4<T<10 mm) we get the characteristic parameters of the appropriate S-N design line: ∆σc = 20 N/mm² (from 22 N/mm² according to type no. 2.8 but reduced by one detail category for 2.9 to account for the fact that the weld toe is round the corner of the member) m1 = 3,2 for the slope The respective design line can thus be constructed, Fig. 2.

Finally the code defines also „safe life“ TS, which may be calculated as TS = TL / DL = 60 / 0,695 = 86,3 years. Had the damage summation been DL > 1,0 or the „safe life“ TS shorter 2.2.2 (2) h) than the assumed or projected service life TL, then − either the structure or the member will have to be redesigned (or protected in case of exposure to severe environment) to reduce 2.2.2 (2) i) stresses, or − a detail of higher category will be manufactured, if possible, or − a damage tolerant approach may be used, where appropriate. 2.3 TALAT 2712 8
  • 9. 7 Fatigue Check of „Damage Equivalent Stress“ (alternatively) Somewhat larger number of calculations is required, but nowadays using computational methods for the algorithm this is not at all a matter of concern. Such a calculation has the advantage of comparing stress instead of life values, with the other limit states as well. The procedure is as follows: the „damage equivalent stress“ Dse is calculated for the stress spectrum at a total spectrum life of 675360+1040400 = 1715760 cycles (corresponding to the „active“ stress amplitudes above the cut- off limit, but it would have been the same if the equivalent stress had been calculated at any other life value), where with the values as in Table 3 we get Table 3: Fatigue Strength Check on the Basis of „Damage Equivalent Strength“ m i Ds ni ∑ni niDsim ∑ niDsim DsDm1-m2 m j nj ∑nj njDsj ∑ njDsjm 1 60 5040 5040 2,469E09 2,469E09 2 40 18000 23040 2,409E09 4,878E09 0,00444... 3 36 22320 45360 2,132E09 7,010E09 4 32 38160 83520 2,501E09 9,511E09 3,2 5 28 51840 135360 2,216E09 11,727E09 6 24 79920 215280 2,086E09 13,813E09 7 20 139680 354960 2,034E09 15,847E09 8 16 320400 675360 2,285E09 18,132E09 „knee point“ of design line at ND = 5000000 with constant amplitude fatigue limit DsD = 15 N/mm² 5,2 9 12 1040400 1040400 425,5E09 425,5E09 cut-off limit DsL = 8,4 N/mm² 10 (8) (1480320) -------- -------- -------- 11 (4) (2560320) -------- -------- -------- ∆σ e = m1 ∑ ( n ∆σ ) + ∆σ ⋅ ∑ ( n ∆σ i i m1 m1 − m2 D j m2 j ) ∑n + ∑n i j 18,132 E 09 + 0,00444 * 425,5 E 09 = 3, 2 675360 + 1040400 ≅ 18,7 N / mm2 The fatigue strength DsR, as given by the design line at the same life value as above, i.e. for N = 1715760 cycles, is TALAT 2712 9

  • 11. 8 Conditions for Damage Tolerant Design Calculations 2.3.1 Conditions under which damage tolerable design procedures may be used − DL > 1,0 − crack propagation observable during service (crack near or at surface) or crack arrest, − inspection frequency feasible before critical crack size, − practical crack inspection methods available and applicable before critical crack size is reached, − maintenance manual to be kept. 2.3.2 First inspection has to take place − before safe life TS has elapsed, − at regular inspection intervals Ti ≤ 0,5Tf , where Tf is the calculated time for a crack to grow (at the site being assessed) from the detectable crack size ld to critical crack size lf. Table 2.3.1 Minimum safe values of detectable surface crack length are given by the Code. Tf shall be estimated by means of calculation (based on fracture mechanics principles and an upper bound crack propagation / Annex B stress intensity relationship) and/or by test. Specific information is Table C.1 provided in this latter case, too. 9 Comments for the Mean Stress Effect During the fatigue check we have assumed conditions of high tensile mean stresses at the potential crack initiation site of the weld toe. This is generally true. Conditions of mean stress ≥ +0,5 are taken into account (as worst case, on the safe side) with the design S-N lines. 5.3, Annex G Should other conditions pertain fatigue life may be enhanced - accounted for by a „bonus“ factor f( R ). 10 Comments on Environmental Effects The fatigue check performed above showed a sufficient margin of safety under the assumed conditions of loading and environmental conditions (see under 1.1) for detail category used. Under another, more severe environment, for instance immersion or constant contact 5.4 with sea water with the alloy EN AW-6082 (AlMgSi), a reduction of Table 5.4.1 two detail categories should have been undertaken. This would result to a design line with DsC = 16 N/mm² and slope m1 = 3,2. The constant amplitude fatigue limit (at 5x106 cycles) would now be DsD = 12 N/mm², the cut-off limit (at 108 cycles) DsL = 6,8 N/mm². These changes would alter the damage accumulation calculation, more stress levels would have to be considered at more severe damage. The structural detail category would not be sufficient any more under these conditions. TALAT 2712 11
  • 12. 11 Enhancement of Fatigue Strength The practical remedy would be to improve the structural detail, either locally at the potential crack initiation site (this can be a costly 5.5 procedure, its applicability will depend on the overall frequency of occurrence of the detail in the structure and the economics of the improvement technique applied) or choose a detail of higher strength Table in the first place. The obvious solution in this case would have been an 5.1.2 (a) attachment with a sufficiently high radius R ≥ 20 mm and the weld toe fully ground out. This would push the detail category up to type no. 2.12 with DsC = 28 N/mm². Now even after reducing by two categories due to the severe environmental conditions there would be a category with DsC = 22 N/mm², sufficient to provide sound design. 12 Quality Requirements for the Structural Detail Used Reference has already been made above (under 1.1) to the fact that the detail categories used represent the maximum fatigue strength Annex D permitted by this code for the detail in question when manufactured to Annex C the quality requirements specified in the Code, and shall not be exceeded without further substantiation by test. See below under 1.14 for details concerning inspection and workmanship acceptance levels. Higher class details often require additional inspection and demand higher workmanship standards which can have an adverse effect on the economy of manufacture. 13 The Fitness-for-Purpose Concept It is important to realize that Eurocode 9 introduces a new concept: 6.1 (1)-(2) inspection and workmanship standards shall be determined by the quality level appropriate to the particular fatigue performance requirements and not by the maximum potential fatigue resistance. The 6.1 (3) required quality level at a detail shall be obtained by determining the Table 6.1.1 lowest fatigue strength curve for which Miner’s summation DL does not exceed unity. Caution: where stress fluctuations occur in more than one direction at a detail different class requirements may be found for each direction. In the above initially calculated case the detail category 2.9 with DsC Table 6.1.1 = 20 N/mm² would correspond itself already to a „Normal“ required quality level. Of course this would be true for any lower category for which DL would still be ≥ 1,0. Should we have used though a detail with rounded attachment edges (and under normal environmental conditions) of say type 2.12 or even 2.13, then a detail category of DsC = 31 N/mm² would have resulted. Following the argumentation just mentioned and from the point of view of the „required quality level“ this high level would not be required, a „Normal“ level would have been sufficient. In case that this detail with the higher potential fatigue resistance would have been chosen it means that quality requirements TALAT 2712 12
  • 13. resistance would have been chosen it means that quality requirements on manufacture of this detail could be relaxed (or in other words 6.2.1 (b) larger imperfections may be tolerated). In case that the required quality level exceeds „Normal“, i.e. it is higher than Category 20, the required quality level has to be indicated on the drawings together with the direction of stress fluctuation. 14 Inspection and Workmanship Acceptance Levels Coming back to the inspection and workmanship acceptance levels, for instance for our initial detail type no. 2.9 from Table 5.1.2 (a), the transverse weld toe at corner, we may observe the following. The Code Annex D gives rather detailed instructions for the control of welding quality and D.1.2, D.1.3 methods and extent of inspection. The methods and extent of inspection for production welds are as Table D.1 follows: − Stage 1 - immediately prior to welding / visual and dimensional inspection (all weld or joint types, for all orientations) in 100% of joints of surface condition, preparation and fit-up dimensions, jigging and tacking requirements, − Stage 2 - after completion of welding / visual and dimensional inspection 100% as above, − Stage 3 - after visual inspection / non-destructive testing for a) surface discontinuities and b) sub-surface discontinuities and for a butt or fillet transverse, in „Normal“ required quality level, a penetrant dye test for 100% of joints within 20 mm of a stop or start is prescribed, − it is obvious that for „Normal“ required quality level no additional destructive tests are prescribed. The required quality levels for final acceptance of production welds Table D.2 and any corrective actions are also indicated. These recommendations help avoid unnecessary repair. Again for our case of detail type no. 2.9 from Table 5.1.2 (a), the transverse weld toe at corner, we observe the following acceptance criteria in the case of „Normal“ required quality level: whereby D: dimension specified on drawing/ E: corrective action-refer to designer NP: not permitted (for NDT detectable discontinuities) NL: no limit NA: not normally applicable see dimensions overall weld geometry - referring to location D±10 / E indicated weld type D / E in weldments extent (length) D+10-0 / E Fig. D.2.1 profile discontinuities - actual throat thickness a ≥ D (average over 50 mm) a≤D+5 leg length - (average over 50 mm) z≥D toe angle - transverse weld θ ≥ 90° TALAT 2712 13
