Discussion On Formula Of Off‐Load Increase Coefficient Of Single‐Box Multi‐Cell Wide Girder, Gao Qingfei, Wang Renzhi, Li Jun, Guo Binqiang, Qin Weijun

Journal of China & Foreign Highway

Single-box multi-cell wide girders are widely applied in highway and urban bridges due to their excellent integrity and large width, especially with increasing traffic volumes. However, existing methods for calculating the off-load increase coefficient of single-box multi-cell wide girders are either too complex or fail to meet engineering needs, limiting their applicability in preliminary design. This paper explores eight influencing factors of the off-load increase coefficient, calculates the coefficients using the transverse frame method, and proposes an empirical formula for the off-load increase coefficient. The proposed formula is validated using the Xiushui Street Wide Girder Bridge in Jilin City.
