Putting Research into Practice: Implementing a Fatigue Detail Classification Scheme for MnDOT's Steel BridgesStatus: CompleteReport Date: 06/07/2007 Summary: This project implements research that classifies steel bridges based on the frequency and severity of fracture and fatigue-sensitive details that are present in each bridge. The gross ranking of bridges with high, medium or low need for preventive maintenance or special inspection will be stored in Pontis, MnDOT's bridge management database, for use by bridge inspectors and those responsible for managing Minnesota's bridges. Final Deliverables: Incorporation of Fatigue Detail Classification of Steel Bridges into the Minnesota Department of Transportation Database (Report #2007-22) Putting Research into Practice: Implementing a Fatigue Detail Classification Scheme for MnDOT's Steel Bridges (Research Summary) Related Materials: Related Research: Project Personnel: Principal Investigator: Arturo Schultz Technical Liaison: James Pierce Project Coordinator: Alan Rindels Panel Members: Erik Wolhowe - Bridges
