Steel/concrete box girder
Short Overview
- consideration of hollow box girders with welded, simple symmetrical structural steel boxes
- classification of cross section
- consideration of secondary effects
- design for limit state
- limit servicability design
- limit fatigue design
- design of bond dowels
- consideartion of cross section variants
- grafical representation of section values and design results
- Analysis & design of steel-concrete box girders
Benefits of composite steel/concrete box girder
he programme component RTcompositeSteelBox fem supports the calculation and design of spatial box girder systems of structural steel, composite steel-concrete or reinforced concrete bridges and in particular provides the following advantages:
- Graphic-oriented surface during design with interactive cross section optimisation
- The calculation / design of the composite girders is performed according to the overall cross section method
- Simple acquisition of the system, cross section and load histories
Consideration of forces of cracking in the concrete chord - Automatic evaluation of secondary effects resulting from creep and shrinkage
- Powerful and economic design according to DIN technical report 104 with a clear result graphic and specific detail information
- Document output in RTprint / RTF format in compliance with the user’s requirements
