Corrosion at girder-ends is a major deterioration pattern of steel bridges. The severity needs to be quantified though the evaluation is not trivial. As an alternative, this paper proposes to use Local Vibration Modes (LVM). The existence of LVMs and the sensitivity of their frequencies to damage are examined. The damage severity is then quantified using a superposition method. This method calculates LVM frequencies under various damage severities and shapes using database of LVM of a limited number of fundamental damage patterns, which is prepared in advance by finite element analysis (FEA). The result is then used to evaluate damage severity from the measured LVM frequencies. Furthermore, relationship between LVM and load carrying capacity, prepared by FEA on various corrosion patterns, is used to evaluate the load carrying capacity from measured LVM frequencies. The developed methods are examined on a FE model of a steel bridge girder end. |
