Abstract

The calculations of plan truss and beam-girder method on straight bridge were analyzed, which determined right beam-girder method calculation model of the box-girder bridge. Based on this model, the different radius continuous curved box-girder bridges were simulated by finite element, and then the internal forces of the bridge were obtained. The calculations of inner beam and outer beam show the change rule of internal force and bridge radius. The reasonable calculation methods of continuous curved box girder bridges are obtained, which can offer help to the bridge designers.
