## Description

National Highways is responsible for the maintenance and operation of 1475 bridges constructed with a steel primary deck element\. A large percentage of these structures were designed before the publication of the design code for fatigue BS 5400 part 10 and therefore may contain components with a fatigue life less than the design life of the structure\. The objective of the client is to produce a standard which takes a risk based approach to the management of fatigue in steel bridges\. This will have the aim of proactively managing bridges at risk of developing fatigue, rather that reactive\.
