About this document

Shear Capacity of Hybrid Girders by wangyoutian828 is a document available to read on EtoBox.

The document discusses the limitations in the AASHTO LRFD Bridge Design Specifications regarding the shear capacity of hybrid steel I-girders, which previously did not allow for the consideration of tension field action. An experimental investigation was conducted to evaluate the shear capacities of hybrid girders, revealing that they could support loads exceeding predictions when tension field action was considered. As a result of this research, modifications were made in the 2004 specifications to apply s
