Innovative High Performance Steel Bridge Girders
High performance steels (HPS) are providing new opportunities to design cost-effective steel bridges by exploiting the high strength, corrosion resistance, fracture toughness, and weldability of HPS. Under certain conditions, however, steel bridge designs may be controlled by design limits that are not influenced by steel strength, and the use of HPS may not be economical. Innovative bridge girders have been proposed to overcome these design limits. This paper focuses on I-shaped girders with corrugated webs and I-shaped girders with tubular flanges. Design criteria for these girders are proposed and limited design studies are presented.
