This paper analyses the hot spot stress distributions and stress concentration factors of longitudinally stiffened welded deck joints subjected to corrosion and fatigue. The stress concentration factors are defined at the adjacent to the transverse welds accounting for the presence of locally non-uniform distributed corrosion. Several stages of structural deterioration due to corrosion are evaluated and the relation ship between the status of degradation and stress concentration factor are established.
