Abstract
Dynamic effect of impact loading such as seismic motion was researched in the viewpoint of seismic margin of steel structures. Impact fatigue tests were conducted from extremely low cycle to low cycle using cycle-loading test apparatus of impact-tensile load and the influence of dynamic strain on material strength of carbon steels. As the test results, the dynamic fatigue lives depended on strain amplitude not strain rate, suggesting the fatigue failure by seismic motion was not affected by strain rate. The strength for impact load includes viscosity stress caused by strain rate. Therefore, the test results and discussion suggested the viscosity stress corresponded to implicit seismic margin in the current design on the basis of stress.
