*U.S.51 Br. [#o2ba021f]
**1.Field of application [#b350c7bd]
>U.S. 51 Bridge over Illinois River in Peru.
**2.Circumstances of repair [#wed63b03]
>Fatigue cracks were found in the butt connection groove weld of a cover plate in July 1980 after 22 years of service. The fractured cover plates were also observed. The following inspection indicated that repair was required.
**3.Types of structure [#t18fcb0d]
>This bridge is the thirteen span continuous structure having the three span Gerber truss in center. Approach spans is composed of simple girder bridge and either 2 or 3 span continuous girder bridge. The structure is composed of six main girders in span 1 and five main girders in span 2 and 3 ([[Fig.1>#fig1]]). The cover plates were weld connected to the rivet girder at the center span and piers. Derail of the welded cover plates is shown in [[figure 2>#fig2]]. The main girder which is composed of flange angles,203 by 152 by 22mm, and the cover plates were fabricated from A373 steel.
>The girder webs were of 11mm thickness A7 steel.

**5.Description of damage [#e9538d19]
>Many fatigue cracks were found in the butt connection groove welds of the cover plates which is a transforming locations of the cover plate thickness ([[Fig.3>#fig3]]). the cover plate had fractured at the two locations. In one of these two locations, an outside leg of the flange angle had fractured ([[Fig.4>#fig4]]).

-Large internal defects, such as lack of fusion and inclusion of slag, of the butt connection groove weld of the cover plates.

**6.Repair method applied [#bc139ff5]
>At all the cracked locations and all the butt connection groove welds locations where the crack was supposed to initiate, The repair and strengthening were performed by bolt-splice ([[Fig.5>#fig5]]).
>In the passed butt connection groove weld joints by non-destructive testing, the weld surfaces were only ground smooth and repair was not required.
