Abstract

A steel elevated guideway for a straddle-type monorail consists of two main track girders and several I-shaped cross beams which connect the two girders. The connection of a cross beam to the track girder is subjected to bending moment, and a number of cycles of the moment reaches a total of 2.8 millions for 70 years.To study on the fatigue strength of the connection, fatigue tests with three-type connection models have been carried out.The present paper reports the fatigue test results and discusses characteristics of the fatigue strength of three-type connections.
