Abstract

The new Eurocode 2 represents a very significant advance in the treatment of fatigue in structural concrete, compared to the old Eurocode. Fatigue acquires greater relevance and visibility in the new standard, and the field of application of this limit state is extended. This new European standard is aligned with the 2010 Model Code, considered as the technical reference document in many aspects of structural concrete (and also in fatigue) and, to a lesser extent, with the new technical document recently published by the American Concrete Institute.This paper shows the most relevant changes in the fatigue chapter of the new Eurocode 2, in which there has been an important formal and/or conceptual change with respect to the old Eurocode 2.
