From the numerical results and the experimentally verification, the following can be concluded:
The fatigue behaviors of RC slabs reinforced with plain bars under moving load can be analyzed by this numerical method.
The propagation of cracked elements due to its bridging stress degradation is considered as the main cause of fatigue failure.
The proposed numerical method integrated the bond-slip effect of plain bars. This leads to obtain accurate fatigue life estimations.
This method was verified using the experimental results, and it shows a good agreement.
