Abstract: Several years ago, the authors started an experimental investigation into the breathing phenomenon of the webs of thin-walled steel girders , which to date comprised more than two hundred tests. The cumulative damage behaviour generated by web breathing was analysed, the process of the initiation and propagation of fatigue cracks induced thereby was studied, and their impact on the failure mechanism and the fatigue limit state of the girders was determined. And, to conclude, a recommendation for design, taking account of the aforesaid, was established.
Keywords: breathing; buckling; fatigue; limit states; thin-walled construction
