Numerical Simulation Of A Steel � Concrete Composite Box Girder Using Fe Approach<br>

<br>


<strong>Abstract</strong><br>

In this paper, a three dimensional (3D) finite element (FE) model of an opened section steel � concrete composite
box (OSSCCB) girder was analyzed to investigate the effect of the intermediate diaphragms on the load carrying capacity of
the girder having a span of 30 m by using nonlinear inelastic analysis. The numerical model was verified with experimental
results to ensure the accuracy of the FE model.
