Open publisher page 1 citations

Abstract

Using space shell finite element method, the authors present an analysis of the shear-lag effect laws of continuous curved box girder bridges and the influence of main structure parameters on the shear-lag effect. The accuracy of the calculating method is verified by the model test and illustrative example analysis. Practical shear-lag coefficients for the reference of engineering designs are presented as well as the tables of the ratio of box girder flange effective width. This study offers a basis for perfecting the contents in specifications related to the calculation of continuous curved box girder shear-lag coefficients and effective distribution width.
