Based on a prestressed concrete girder with complex box-type section of 36m span
four models of 1/6 scale are made
and one of them is mixed with a kind of polymer latex. Experiments with monotonically and cyclically loading are carried out on the models to study bending fatigue behavior of the girder in service and under cyclic load exceeding the designed value
as well as the impact of polymer on fatigue performance of the girder. The results show that
under the cyclic load of value determined by the maximum and minimum stress at the key part of the girder in service
the fatigue performance is satisfactory and the fatigue behavior under a subsequent larger cyclic load is similar with that one under the same big cyclic load. Besides
the polymer has no negative effect on fatigue behavior of the model.
