The report describes the third part of an experimental investigation on the strength and stability of horizontally curved steel plate girders with I-shaped cross-sections. Included herein are detailed descriptions and results from eight static load tests on a simple span frame system composed of two curved plate girders connected by end diaphragms and intermediate cross-frames. The web of the inside girder (located toward the center of curvature) was stiffened with single-sided transverse intermediate stiffeners while that of the inner girder was unstiffened between the load bearing stiffeners. Measured forces, stresses and deflections in the elastic range provided information on the working load behavior of a frame system without the concrete deck. (Modified author abstract)
