Project Number 190
Date of Summary March 31, 1995
Subject Fatigue Strength of Grouted Connections
Performing Activity Det Norske Veritas
Principal Investigator Dr. Arne Sele
Contracting Agency Minerals Management Service
Estimated Completion Completed
Description This is a Joint Industry Project (JIP). To establish design recommendations using available test information on grouted connections. The calculation of safety factors for static strength of grouted connections is necessary to design safety standards which are uniform and like that of other structural components. It is necessary to establish that the provisions for other failure modes will still be adequate. The aim is to provide a sufficient measure of safety against fatigue failure of grouted connections.
