On the Use of the Effective Width for Simply Supported Generally Loaded Box-Girders

On the Use of the Effective Width for Simply Supported Generally Loaded Box-Girders

A new method for evaluating the effective flange width of simply supported rectangular box-girders in bending is illustrated. It aims to overcome the lack in the literature of a general method able to supply the effective flange width for a general distribution of loads along the beam axis, not rest...
