description ABSTRACT Fatigue tests were conducted to investigate the effects of mean stress, stress range, and deck thickness on crack growth and fatigue failure of the deck‐rib welded joint. According to the experimental results, a fatigue failure criterion and a fatigue evaluation method for deck‐rib welded joints, which consider mean stress effect, was proposed. The results indicated that the stress range remains the dominating factor, but the influence of mean stress cannot be ignored. It was proposed that the crack length reaching approximately 150 mm and the depth reaching around 70% deck thickness can be taken as the fatigue failure criterion, while increase in mean stress would reduce the critical crack length but increase the critical crack depth. Besides, multiple cracks will weaken the fatigue strength. It is recommended to use Walker method and the FAT 71 curve with enhancement factor f−1=1.3$$ f\left(-1\right)=1.3 $$ to evaluate the fatigue strength under symmetrical stress cycle.
