Fatigue Performance of Single Span Wood-Concrete-Composite Bridges

Abstract

Wood-concrete-composite structures in residential and commercial applications are gaining market shares in recent years. The application of the wood-concrete-composite bridges however is very limited. This is mainly because there is a lack of knowledge on the fatigue behaviour of the wood-concrete-composite bridges. The authors believe there is a great potential to design these bridges using wood-concrete-composite cross sections with single span of 30 meters and more.
