E.1 General
E.1.1 Fatigue susceptible details should be avoided throughout the structure.
E.1.2 To undertake a fatigue check, a loading spectra should be determined from wind data appropriate to the site.
E.1.3 In the absence of wind data, the fatigue loading provisions given below may be adopted.
E.1.4 Joint Classification should be derived by fatigue testing of a sample of typical full-scale details in an independent testing laboratory, covering an appropriate stress range to enable a fatigue life curve to be derived. Tests shall be undertake…
E.1.5 In the absence of data on fatigue life curves and loading spectra, the procedures set out below shall be followed.
E.2 Fatigue criteria for materials other than steel
E.2.1 Lighting columns in materials other than steel are not covered in by the fatigue rules in E.3. The following standards can assist to assess fatigue for the indicated materials.
E.3 Fatigue criteria for steel lighting columns
E.3.1 Fatigue checks should be undertaken on steel structures of nominal height 9 m or above.
E.3.2 When undertaking fatigue checks, nominal stresses should be based on nominal section properties.
E.3.3 The stress concentrations inherent in the make-up of a welded joint (arising, for example, from the general joint geometry and the weld shape) will generally be included in the classification of the details. Where the stress concentrations inher…
E.3.4 Fatigue is critically dependent on geometric configuration and fabrication details. Stiffened and unstiffened door openings should comply with the constraints in Figure E.1.
54 E.3.5 In fabrication, sharp irregularities at the free edges due to flame cutting are to be ground out. Welds should not be closer than 10 mm to the free edge of an unstiffened door opening. Longitudinal edge stiffeners should be continuous over t…
55 E.3.6 When undertaking fatigue checks, nominal stresses should be based on nominal section properties.
E.3.7 The stress concentrations inherent in the make-up of a welded joint (arising, for example, from the general joint geometry and the weld shape) will generally be included in the classification of the details. Where the stress concentrations inher…
E.3.8 For reinforcement at door openings, the geometric constraints set out in E.3.4 and E.3.5 and E.6.1 to E.9.4 should be met, and stress ranges around door openings need not be calculated.
E.3.9 Where the geometric constraints are not met, then the recommendations of E.3.10 or E.3.11 should be followed.
E.3.10 For lighting columns, and minor structures designed using the methodology for lighting columns, excluding cantilever masts for traffic signals and/or speed cameras that project over the carriageway, only fatigue due to gust wind loading should…
E.3.11 For cantilever masts for traffic signals and/or speed cameras that project over the carriageway, the fatigue effects from wind gust loading and high vehicle buffeting should be combined and satisfy the recommendations of E.10.1 to E.12.2.
E.4 Partial Safety Factors on Fatigue Loads
E.4.1 The partial safety factors, f, in the fatigue serviceability limit state shall be taken as:
56 E.5 Fatigue due to gust wind loading
E.5.1 Checks on fatigue should be undertaken at and adjacent to each welded section.
E.5.2 Fatigue checks should be carried out for the ends of reinforcement at door openings.
E.5.3 A check on fatigue should be undertaken using a stress range given by:
E.5.4 This stress range, (r, should be less than that obtained using the fatigue curves in Figures F.1 or Figure F.2, for the class of detail being considered and for a number of cycles, n1, given by:
E.5.5 For a design life of L (years), Figure F.1 may be used by adopting an effective frequency Nfe as the horizontal scale given by:
57 E.6 Geometric configurations and fabrication constraints
E.6.1 The geometric and fabrication constraints on cross sections of steel lighting columns in E.5, E.6 and E.7 should be satisfied in order to use the classes of typical weld details as provided in Table F.2 to Table F.9.
E.7 Flange plates
E.8 Shoulder joints
E.9 Door openings
E.10 Fatigue from high vehicle buffeting
58 E.10.4 A typical high sided vehicle height of 4.2 m should be used.
E.10.5 Where a particular site has a higher average vehicle height then this should be used instead.
E.10.6 Applied loads should be calculated as the product of the design pressure and projected area.
E.10.7 Partial load factor for fatigue, γf should be taken from Table E.1.
E.11 Fatigue damage assessment
E.11.1 Fatigue due to gust wind loading
E.11.2 Fatigue due to high vehicle buffeting
E.11.2.2 Where flows of high sided vehicles are less than this average, then the values of n2i should be reduced in proportion.
E.11.2.3 Flows of high sided vehicles should be determined by traffic survey and the total number of high sided vehicles cannot be reduced below a value of 1 000 for design purposes.
59 E.11.2.4 The corresponding number of cycles to failure, N2i, should be given by:
E.12 Fatigue due to combined gust wind loading and high vehicle buffeting
E.12.2 The combined fatigue effects should satisfy the following criterion:
E.13 Fatigue stress curves and guidance for weld classification
E.14 Guidance for weld classification (Informative)
E.14.2 This guidance was based on fatigue tests of a representative number of details provided by a range of UK lighting column manufacturers. However, classification is critically dependent on welding quality and fabrication methods, and hence the i…
E.14.3 Closer control of the welding and fabrication process and/or post-weld treatment may improve the weld classification. For other welded details specialist advice should be sought and reference made to BS EN 1993-1-9:2005.
