Analysis of Effect Factors about Shear Lag in Curved Box Girder under Seismic Loads

Article Preview

Abstract:

The shear lag effect will cause damage to the curved box girders. And it will adversely affect the bridge’s seismic performance. In order to analyze the effect under seismic loads, finite element models were created in this paper. By changing the parameters, such as curvature radius, width and height, their influence on the shear lag were studied. Results show that the effect was more obvious in wide and flat box girders under seismic load.
