Abstract

We investigate the effect of a galvanizing coating on the fatigue strength of S355 structural steel. Although some results on fatigue tests of unnotched specimens are available, those on notched components are scarce. A comparison is carried out between hot-dip galvanized specimens weakened by a central hole and untreated specimens of the same geometry for two nominal load ratios R = 0 and R = −1. In total, over 60 new experimental data are summarized and analyzed in the present contribution.
