THE question could well be asked as to why load controlled high strain fatigue tests should be performed, particularly when so much of the current research employs strain control? The answer is simple: a load controlled high strain fatigue environment was discovered, and a test programme subsequently initiated to provide data that could be applied to future designs. Besides, what more realistic way of testing is there? Fundamentally, most structures, or elements thereof, sense load only during a working life; strain is merely a resulting effect.
