PROGRESS REPORT ON STEEL BOX GIRDER BRIDGES

A REVIEW OF CURRENTLY AVAILABLE METHODS FOR THE ELASTIC ANALYSIS OF STEEL BOX GIRDER BRIDGES IS PRESENTED, ALONG WITH INFORMATION ON EXPERIMENTAL VERIFICATIONS AND A BRIEF SECTION ON STABILITY PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH STEEL BOX GIRDERS. IT IS SUGGESTED THAT AN EXPERIMENTAL RESEARCH PROGRAM ON FULL-SIZE BOX GIRDERS IS NEEDED TO ASSIST IN FORMULATING AN ULTIMATE STRENGTH APPROACH TO STEEL BOX GIRDER DESIGN. /ASCE/
