Considering the various shipments requesting the structure of a road bridge over its useful life, some are of an essentially dynamic behavior, ie , vary with time, contrary to what is considered standard practice in the design of this type of work of art. In general, the designers of this type of structure have treated loads such as wind, vehicles and pedestrians as traffic static nature of actions, ignoring their cyclical profile. This consideration, in various design situations, tends to mitigate the effects of dynamic actions on the structural system. Furthermore, structures subjected to cyclic requests under a lower load at maximum shits supported by the material, are subject to fatigue phenomenon. The proper consideration of these aspects is shown fundamentally important for accurate assessment of levels of internal forces in the structural system, as well as for the identification of important phenomena such as fatigue which may ultimately lead, for example, disruption of structural components without warning or apparent reason. To this end, this dissertation techniques for counting cycles of tension and enforcement of accumulated damage were analyzed by the type SN curves associated with various design standards. Mixed road bridge (steel-concrete) investigated in this study consists of six longitudinal steel girders with transverse stiffeners eight crossbeams and a deck of reinforced concrete. The numerical - computational model developed for the dynamic analysis of the bridge, was based on standard techniques of discretization by finite element method. The tables and souls of the beams, as well as the stiffeners were modeled by shell elements and reinforced concrete slab, for solid elements. The dynamic loading evaluated in this study relates to vehicular traffic, whose representation is given from "mass - spring - damper systems." Trains formed are adopted as semi - infinite, moving with constant speed on the bridge. The findings of this research Versam about the service life of the structural elements of composite (steel-concrete) bridges.
