Low-cycle fatigue-tests with full scale structural specimens have been carried out in the Ship Structures Laboratory at Delft on a 600-ton tension-compression machine.

    The specimens represented the interconnection of longitudinal frames at transverse bulkheads. Most were of the interrupted type and were constructed in mild steel. A small number of specimens made of a higher-strength steel was also available.

    Axial cyclic loading was applied ( P min / P max = ( 1 / ( 2 ). The results are given for 0, 100 and 500 mm2 crack-area as a function of nominal, local and peak-stresses.
