Resumo(s)
This paper presents a design method for stiffened flanges used in steel box girder
bridges based on a set of design curves that take into account all relevant parameters regarding
the ultimate strength of stiffened flanges, including the real boundary conditions for the inplane
displacements at the edges. These design curves were developed and calibrated based on
the results obtained with nonlinear analysis using the semi-analytical and finite element methods
and they were validated by comparison with the results of experimental tests in accordance
with the target failure probability of the European standard EN-1990. A comparison between
the ultimate strength obtained using the proposal design curves with that obtained using the
nonlinear analysis and the current bridge design rules is presented.
