Abstract
In this study, based on an actual project, the steel wire in the suspender of a concrete-filled steel tube arch bridge was selected from appropriate samples to perform acetic acid-accelerated salt spray tests, and steel wire samples with different corrosion degrees were obtained. A laser microscope was used to measure the roughness of the samples, and three corrosion samples were randomly selected from each group for grinding. Fatigue tests were performed on steel wire samples with different degrees of corrosion and polished steel wire samples, and the fatigue fracture was observed and analyzed. The results showed that few cracks on the steel wire surface could be eliminated by grinding, and the fatigue life of the specimens could be increased. Finally, the stress-life-mass loss rate (S-N-η) probability model based on the Weibull distribution was obtained using the measured fatigue data, which can be further referenced in the planning of the inspection of suspender service status, steel wire corrosion protection, and fatigue life prediction, etc.
