Fatigue life assessement of prestressed concrete railway sleeper/ Norhermie Asyikin Abas

The track modernization programmed involved the use monoblock prestressed concrete sleeper instead of wooden. A concrete sleeper has to withstand repeated loading of several million cycles during its estimated life of about SO years. But to date, only a few research has taken place therefore a study...

From the analysis, result Load versus Deflection, stress-strain relationship, behavior of crack mouth and crack length and Displacement versus no. of cycles were plotted. 75 % from yield load will be the mean load for fatigue test 1998 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/103347/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/103347/1/103347.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA (UiTM) Faculty of Civil Engineering Din, Khafilah
