F1554 and Fatigue

The AISC manual does not directly address the use of F1554 in a tension fatigue situation.  The best description is Appendix 3.4 which deals with threaded parts and classifies essentially all threaded parts as detail category E`.  Does anyone know of supplemental information about F1554 in fatigue applications?
