A METHOD OF MEASURING ACCUMULATING FATIGUE DAMAGE TO CONCRETE.

Abstract

The report presents the results of a feasibility study for utilizing the S/N Fatigue Life Gage as a device for measuring fatigue damage in concrete. Investigation results indicate that the S/N Fatigue Life Gage will not measure fatigue damage in concrete. However, an alternate method (included in this report) did produce results indicating feasible application for storing concrete fatigue damage information. (Author)
