1. PC Composite Girder Bridge Design
Grillage mesh
(a) Grid of longitudinal and transverse
beams
(b) Longitudinal beams at center a little less
than lane width
(c) Deck with contiguous beam
(d) Two longitudinal members per larger
beam

Modeling 3D Model
Advantage of 3D Model
(1) Automatically account for shear lag (dependent on the fineness of the mesh)
(2) Concrete slab that is cracked in longitudinal tension can be modeled
(3) Effective moment, shear, axial force on composite beam section can be
determined from the stresses
(4) Verification buckling resistance is available.
(5) Large displacement analysis is available.
(6) More realistic model by considering bracing
Applicable bridge type Beam and Slab type bridge deck only Any type of bridges
