| Abstract: |
The paper describes one particular problem connected with the repair of fatigue cracks in the stiffener-to-deck plate welds of orthotropic decks of road bridges. The bottom layers of the deck surface could be locally influenced by high temperatures due to welding on the bottom side of the deck plate. This fact is especially important when the mastic asphalt was only recently replaced and should not be damaged. Therefore, the repair procedure must be carefully proposed and executed. |
