Numerical Investigation of Distribution Laws of Shear Force in Box Girder Webs by Xingwei Xue, Chao Zang, Junlong Zhou, Hai Zhang

“…The results show that supporting conditions and chambers have a significant impact on the shear-increased coefficient η, and end diaphragm must be set up in the 3D finite element model when calculating η. Nonlinear analysis shows that in the elastic phase, the shear-increased coefficient η basically does not change, but in the cracking stage, the coefficient η of each web changes with the degree of web cracking, and side-webs (S-Webs) reach the ultimate load first. …”
