RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DESIGN OF COMPOSITE BOX GIRDERS
Failure behavior of steel-concrete composite box girders under static load is briefly reviewed, confirming the similarity between webs of plate girders and box girders. Rules are proposed for Allowable Stress Design procedures which are directly adopted from proposed rules for Load Factor Design of box girders. (FHWA)
