The Local Stress Analysis for the Anchorage Zone of Tooth Plate in Steel Box Girder

Abstract:

Calculating the local stress for the anchorage zone of each part in the tooth plate by establishing two kinds of finite element model: considering concrete effect and not considering concrete effect. The result of the comparative analysis of the two models shows that the local stress considering the concrete effect is smaller than that not considering the concrete effect and the maximum difference is about 170 MPa. The difference is not the same in different parts of the tooth plate. Although the design will be tend to be safe for not considering the concrete effect, the size of the tooth plate may increase. Therefore, in order to reduce the weight of the tooth plate , the concrete effect should be taken into consideration in the design.
