1.1 Practical dimensioning of box girders under static loading
1.1.1 General – Torsor components
The box section is particularly suitable for resisting a torsional moment that occurs when the beam is loaded in the plane of a web or flange, i.e. off a main axis of inertia. In this way, the caisson section shown in figure 1 can be subjected to a system of stresses which, at any point on the mean line, results in a torsor which, in the extreme...
