11:50 Loss of Preload – What to Do?

• Technical background on the influence of imperfections and preload on the fatigue behaviour of L-flange connections
• Approaches for reassessment of the connection in the fatigue limit state considering reduced preload levels
• Simplified approach: reassessment using analytical methods based on state of the art procedures according to IEC 61400-6/AMD1
• Advanced approach: numerical investigations considering realistic gap profiles, evaluated through mating studies based on measured flatness protocols
