Evaluation of Applicability for Ni-advanced Weathering Steels and Bridge High-performance Steels to Railway Steel Bridges

The design standard for railway steel structures and composite girders was recently revised, and its range of applicability was extended to recently developed steel materials including Ni-advanced weathering steels and Bridge High-performance Steels (BHS). Ni-advanced weathering steels can be applied without painting to bridges in corrosive environments, while BHS materials...
